That won't take place until next summer, but the scientists have already dug out a deep trench where the main drill will bore to the bottom of the ice. Here the cores will be pure ice, inside which gas will be trapped in tiny bubbles - air from over 100,000 years ago. Pulling up those cores will take three years, longer to fully...
