Ages of Ice - UTAS Screening

Join us at the University of Tasmania for a special screening of the upcoming ABC docuseries Ages of Ice. From Antarctica to the Arctic, Ages of Ice is a high-stakes journey into the heart of our planet’s frozen wilderness, following researchers as they push the boundaries of exploration. Each mission is a step toward understanding how glaciers move, how oceans rise, and how the rhythms of the past compare to the quickening tempo of today. As the series moves from intimate wildlife moments to discoveries of global consequence, we witness the race to understand a planet in transition through the extraordinary people who go to the ends of the Earth to uncover what comes next. The screening will be followed by a discussion hosted by award-winning ABC Science Journalist Zoe Kean, with Karina Holden (Series Director, Writer and Executive Producer), Dr Susanne Lockhart (Antarctic Marine Biologist, deep-sea explorer whose worked has helped reveal some of the Southern Ocean's most extraordinary hidden ecosystems), and Ian Kelly (Postdoctoral researcher at UTAS, whose work focuses on geophysical investigations of the Antarctic sub-ice environment). With thanks to our partners - University of Tasmania (UTAS), and Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition (ASOC) - for making this event possible.
