Intense Week at Pythom
We had barely finished typing “machines and humans in extreme conditions” in last week’s update when expeditions began toppling one after the other.
Following winter Everest, North Pole was finished after just one day and latest Bill Burke says it’s over, all citing cruel weather gods. On a lighter note – literally – PythomSpace Mars Lander 1.0 is on the table.
World news; Antarctica circumnavigation sailor still standing, we lost a big climbing profile, and a brand new Everest spring season is building.
