The voyage started from the Punta Arenas and went due south towards the South Pole to study the glaciers, to Australia, Asia, Russia, and due west towards Iceland and Greenland, the North Pole and back to the Punta Arenas. In these areas, research will be conducted depending on the environment. For example, the poles and the Punta Arenas are areas where study is based on glaciers and their conditions, and in the Himalayas near Bhutan, altitude research will be conducted.
