After many hard working days in the last couple of weeks, "Gabriel de Castilla" Antarctic Base is completely operative. At all, 14 Spaniards and 1 Mexican will stay during three months in this far place. My colleages Antonio Serrano (row of down, second by the left) and Maria Luisa Cancillo (row of above, second by the right) have already started their research works about the radiative budget in the permafrost (frozen ground) . Good Luck!!!!
