Group photo at the South Pole to celebrate the Centennial.  I'm the tallest person in the back center. 

To celebrate 100 years since the first human arrived at the South Pole, there was a big celebration at the South Pole to celebrate the centennial anniversary.  Roald Amundsen led the original Norwegian team that arrived, so to celebrate this Norwegian triumph, the Prime Minister of Norway came to the South Pole for 4 days to engage in the festivities.  See the BBC article below describing the ceremony.

Me giving a tour to the Prime Minister of Norway (Left), describing our observations of the radiant light left over from the Big Bang.  He seemed genuinely interested, and was pretty amazed that we have measured the universe to be 14 billion years old. 

BICEP2 / KECK team photo with the Prime Minister, and me.  Jamie Bock was the official BICEP2 / KECK representative and I was the SPT representative, so I followed him around for both parts of the tour.

Jamie Bock describing how we can test BICEP2 tests the theory of Inflation, which postulates that the Big Bang was caused by a superluminal period of expansion caused by physics at energies scales where the four known forces (Electromagnetic, Gravity, Weak, Strong) combine.

Me explaining how our detectors work to the Prime Minister.

Waiting to hear the Prime Minister speak, and unveil the ice sculpture bust of Amundsen at the ceremonial South Pole.  This speech is linked to in the above BBC article (maybe you can see me?)

The Prime Minister speaks!

Visiting the bust afterwards.
