Student scientists tweet with BGan

Student scientists in Siberia are using BGAN to keep the world up to date about their daily research.

The Polaris Project at the Northeast Science Station in Siberia is a US-Russian initiative that enables a team of scientists to conduct field courses to enhance undergraduates' research into climate change.

Through blogging and tweeting, the latest group of undergraduates and their tutors - resident scientists from various institutions - are finding contact with the outside world much easier this year, thanks to BGAN connectivity.
