Wind Turbine at Antarctica's Mawson Station Turbine Collapses

A wind turbine at Mawson Station in Antarctica collapsed on the evening of November 7, forcing engineers to activate emergency generators and deactivate wind-powered energy at the site.

The turbine, which was installed in 2003, came from Germany and was 30m high.

No one was injured as a result. Credit: Australian Antarctic Division via Storyful
