For our annual fieldwork issue, Eos takes you to the ends of the Earth…and beyond. Science writer Sofia Moutinho embeds herself in a scientific cruise to the Antarctic in “Confined at Sea at the End of the World.” Meanwhile, academics join future astronauts on analogue lunar excursions (by way of Meteor Crater) in Mark Betancourt’s “The Art of Doing Fieldwork on the Moon.” And if you’re wondering how to record such out-of-this-world fieldwork accurately and efficiently, take a look at this month’s opinion from Sabrina Kainz and Andrea Halling, “Snapping Science in the Field.” It’s a field guide in itself—to the brave new world of using social media for science.
