On Polarstern, two fluxgate three-component magnetometers are mounted on the crow's nest where they continuously [...] software after completing precise circular manouevres at various points during a science cruise. Polarstern also acts as a base for two helicopters, either of which can be set up to tow a Scintrex Caesium

Moreover, the ship doesn’t run on fuel oil, but diesel, a significantly cleaner choice. “The Polarstern bunkers the cleanest variant available, DMA, which is nearly as good as the diesel used in commercial
