    A U.S. Coast Guard icebreaker vessel is moored against Arctic or Antarctic sea ice, with a crew of approximately 12 personnel working on the ice surface alongside the ship. The personnel, most wearing red immersion or survival suits, are handling equipment including sleds and cylindrical objects, likely conducting scientific research or logistical operations. The ship's distinctive red hull with white superstructure is clearly visible, consistent with a polar icebreaker class vessel.

    ARCTIC OCEAN – Scientists, engineers and crew members from the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy (WAGB-20) prepare to unload gear Tuesday, Oct. 2, 2018, about 715 miles north of Barrow, Alaska, in the Arctic. The Healy is underway in the Arctic with about 100 crew members and 30 scientists to deploy sensors and autonomous submarines to study stratified ocean dynamics and how environmental factors affect the water below the ice surface for the Office of Naval Research. The Healy, which is homeported in Seattle, is one of two ice breakers in U.S. service and is the only military ship dedicated to conducting research in the Arctic.
