I got to go catch a glimpse of an atmospheric science research aircraft today with some coworkers. These guys are from Britain and are doing research on the radiative balance of sea ice north of Barrow.

Below is one of the scientists on board showing us the dropsonde chute. Wouldn't this be a fun job???

They have a ton of equipment and workstations in this aircraft. Maybe a future career option?? Hmmm...
