An Australian expeditioner has been medically evacuated from Antarctica, following a multinational effort by land, air and sea that spanned thousands of miles on the remote continent.
The Australian, United States and Chinese Antarctic programs collaborated on the five-day operation, which Australian officials on Friday called an outstanding success thanks to teamwork and, of course, good weather during the Antarctic summer.
