Moment giant Antarctica drone takes off
The first pictures of a giant drone flying in Antarctica have been released by the British Antarctic Survey.
Scientists want to use the drone to reach inaccessible parts of the continent to understand the impacts of climate change.
The drone is operated remotely and engineers with company Windracers monitor it from a computer.
BBC climate and science reporter Georgina Rannard explains what it has been mapping.
