Halley VI Modules

007/366

Looking as if straight from a Science Fiction movie, Halley Research station, in its 6th iteration, will be home for thirteen members of the Wintering Team. The station consists of eight modules, each supported on hydraulic legs fitted with skis which assist in annual station raise to keep the building above the snow accumulation. The skis allow the station to be relocated to a new site; once already used during the construction season to bring the modules from the old Halley V site to the current one, the system will be relied upon again next summer to move the station to a new location.
