    A U.S. Navy LC-130 Hercules ski-equipped cargo plane prepares to take off from a remote National Science Foundation field camp on Shackleton Glacier, Antarctica on Jan. 22, 1996. NASA astronomers and glaciologists spent over seven weeks here searching for meteorites and the clues they hold about the creation of our solar system. The National Science Foundation, U.S. Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and Army work together to support scientific research year round.
