Default Envisat helps Polar Challenge racers on way to Magnetic North Pole

The final stretch of the Scott Dunn Polar Challenge is approaching: 44
competitors on 16 teams from all over Britain and Ireland are racing on
skis, pulling sledges to the 500-kilometre-distant Magnetic North Pole. In
this extreme environment, radar ice images from ESA's Envisat help ensure
competitors keep safe.
