Stu McManus was the Winter Electrician at Rothera Research Station in 2022 - and due to unforeseen circumstances, he was the only person responsible for electrics across the season. His first Antarctic job was at King Edward Point Research Station on South Georgia. Stu talks to host Nadia Frontier about overcoming imposter syndrome, camping in the Antarctic wilderness, and how his career as an electrician has helped him travel around the world. --- In case you missed them, here's an explanation of some of the Antarctic jargon: Vikings - an accommodation block at Rothera Sky Blu - a fuel depot used to supply the aircraft carrying field parties N2 - a mountain Lagoon - an island south of Rothera Dash - the larger aircraft BAS use --- Cover photograph of Stu McManus by Catherine Maguire.
