International Geophysical Year anniversary lecture

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the International Geophysical Year of 1957-58; the massive international effort that kicked off a wave of scientific research in Antarctica, and led to the establishment of multiple stations on the ice, including New Zealand's Scott Base.

Auckland Libraries, in association with the Antarctic Report, are celebrating this milestone with a free public event involving two Antarctic writers, David Day and Joanna Grochowicz.
