History

[edit]

British Antarctic Survey

[edit]

RRS James Clark Ross was constructed at Swan Hunter Shipbuilders in Wallsend, UK and was named after the British explorer James Clark Ross.[5] She replaced the RRS John Biscoe in 1991. She was launched by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 1 December 1990.[6]

In March 2018, RRS James Clark Ross was due to sample the marine life around the world's biggest iceberg, A-68, but was unable to reach the site due to sea ice conditions.[7]

After 30 years' service, James Clark Ross was sold to the National Antarctic Scientific Center of Ukraine, in August 2021.[8]
