Polarquest successfully completed the Global Giving 2017 Accelerator Campaign by raising over 50 000 USD for its Microplastic in the Arctic campaign and earned a Certificate of Achievement!

PolarQuEEEst is a special detector catching cosmic rays coming from the distant regions of our universe, particularly concentrated at the Poles. One of these special “telescopes” will be on board Nanuq to measure the cosmic ray flow at different latitudes.
