The intrepid team in the Antarctic have decided that it is too dangerous to continue with their crossing. This does not mean however that they will return home any time soon. They are stuck until the end of the Antarctic winter.
Whilst still in the Antarctic they will continue with the scientific research commissioned - including work for NASA. Five men and a mouse in a caboose, in the dark, in subfreezing temperatures - a bit like space, no wonder it is called the White Mars project.
You can follow their progress of a modern day "shipwreck" on the Coldest Journey website.
Remember to scroll down to 5th June 2013 - you'll see Mary Mouse looking a bit frostbitten.
