“…Progress in accessing climate records in subglacial environments is limited (Q.34). Attempts have been made to advance drilling technologies to access sub-ice targets 91,92 , but none have achieved routine use. Ice coring is internationally coordinated 93 and, while these activities focus on retrieving ice samples for paleoclimate records, access to and sampling of the underlying bed are essential for validating models.…”

The view from the south is, more than ever, dominated by ominous signs of change. Antarctica and the Southern Ocean are intrinsic to the Earth system, and their evolution is intertwined with and influences the course of the Anthropocene. In turn, changes in the Antarctic affect and presage humanity's future. Growing understanding is countering popular beliefs that Antarctica is pristine, stable, isolated, and reliably frozen. An aspirational roadmap for Antarctic science has facilitated research since 2014. A renewed commitment to gathering further knowledge will quicken the pace of understanding of Earth systems and beyond. Progress is already evident, such as addressing uncertainties in the causes and pace of ice loss and global sea-level rise. However, much remains to be learned. As an iconic global ''commons,'' the rapidity of Antarctic change will provoke further political action. Antarctic research is more vital than ever to a sustainable future for this One Earth.
