The Bulgarian Antarctic base "St. Kliment Ohridski" officially opened its doors on the eve of its patron saint's day. The members of the Bulgarian Antarctic expedition, led by Professor Hristo Pimpirev, set foot on the snowy shores of Livingston Island at 9:30 pm on November 23.
The journey through the Drake Passage was carried out with the help of the Chilean naval ship Aguiles, whose crew also assisted in unloading the necessary provisions for the scientific and logistical projects before the arrival of the Bulgarian research ship St. St. Cyril and Methodius. The team is gradually putting the Antarctic base into operation under the leadership of Commander Kamen Nedkov. The team will begin preparations for the forthcoming scientific projects and continue the construction of the new laboratory bloc.
