- Congrats to former SPT winterover Aman Chokshi for being recognized as one of Nature's top photos of 2025 for "scientific fieldwork"! www.nature.com/immersive/d4...
- SPT getting ready for observations last week. Weather has been great recently and entering the best part of the observing season. The #aurora are also picking up, with the #Sun still near solar maxima. Picture by SPT winterover Karia last week. #southpole @NSF @doescience
