Crews of geologists drill operators geochemists and biologists would head out link onto the sea ice of the McMurdo Sound to operate massive drills that would first pierce through ice that was about six feet thick. Then the drill would reach depths of 195 feet to bore into the sediment. The core samples would then link be transported back up to the surface in a "split tube" and hydraulically link extracted in ten-foot segments.
