Barba and her first crew of five sailing onboard for the Norwegian chapter of collaborative research and communications project Arctic Sense have set sail!
The crew left the dock to a wonderful wave-off from friends and family and an international audience via an Instagram Live feed which is now available to watch on Instagram TV.
Ahead of departure they were visited by NRK, Norway’s national TV broadcaster who featured the departure on the evening news. Watch the news report here (skip to minute 5:12) – in Norwegian.
