A busy day for our scientists: rendezvous with the Japanese scientific
vessel, the Mirai. The film crew went aboard to meet up with Eddy Carmack,
an oceanographer who is studying climate change in the Beaufort Sea,
and then stayed for supper! »

Here we are safely anchored in the large American fishing port of Dutch
Harbor, in the Aleutians, not far from Russia. For the last few days,
boats have been arriving from all over to take part in one of the world's
biggest fisheries: Alaska crab. »

A quiet day in Glacier Bay. The grey clouds were skimming the treetops,
so low that we couldn't see the spectacular scenery of this natural
jewel that we have heard so much about. We met with the representatives
of the national park and discussed the history of Alaska's glaciers
with them. »

We visited the Leconte glacier, one of Alaska's hidden jewels, at the
head of a long inlet near the village of Petersburg. A magnificent day;
the blazing sun caressed the radiant faces of the crew on deck. The
crew went wild, as if suddenly realizing that we were down to the last
few days of shooting.»

The autumn sun helped brighten up an unforgettable weekend in the Port
of Vancouver, where SEDNA was moored long enough to greet local
journalists and photographers. There were lots of them (from TV, radio,
newspapers) and with our successful arrival in Victoria, we can say
that media coverage in the West has been beyond our hopes. »
