On Christmas Eve, scientists at field stations across Antarctica sing carols to one another via shortwave radio, showcasing the unique connections formed through community science.
Nathaniel Frissell explains how shortwave radio not only provides a platform for scientific communication but also fosters community among those isolated in Antarctica during festive times.
The Santa Net connects children, referred to as 'little harmonics', with Santa, highlighting the engaging ways shortwave radio brings joy and tradition across vast distances.
This traditional practice of singing carols over shortwave radio emphasizes the importance of human connection in remote environments, especially during the holiday season.
