Hey Bruce Rise, how have you been in the last year?
Bruce Rise is a fascinating continental fragment, which wedged itself between Australia and #Antarctica during the opening of the Southern Ocean. We visited in 2024 on #RVPolarstern and are now back on #RSVNuyina as part of the Deman Marine Voyage.
