Antarctic magnetic racetrack could enable sun storm proof radio link
Scientists at Siple Station 800 miles from the South Pole study a magnetic racetrack in the ionosphere that may relay Morse code from U S Navy transmissions at very low frequencies. Two graduate students will commute daily in brutal winter to observe aurora and test the system as NSF oversees the U S Antarctica Research Program. Siple Station, built by U S Navy, will host a 13 mile antenna 15 feet high atop a deep icecap with a 71 foot tower, operating 10 years or more.
