Balgarianovinite.com The research vessel Sv. Sv. Kiril I Metodii (RSV 421) entered the Drake Passage on Tuesday – one of the most dangerous areas for navigation.
Earlier today, RSV 421 departed from the bay in front of the Bulgarian Antarctic base and set course for Bulgaria.
This morning, the Bulgarian Antarctic researchers observed a partial solar eclipse from the base.
Electrical engineer Dr. Petar Sapundjiev explained in an interview with BTA how essential it is for scientific projects to receive data from Antarctica in real time throughout the entire year.
The Bulgarian research vessel Sv. Sv Kiril I Metodii set sail for Antarctica on November 7 from Varna. The ship arrived at the naval base of the Argentine city of Mar del Plata on December 13, 2025, after a month-long voyage across the Atlantic Ocean.
BTA has maintained a national press club on board RSV 421 since 2022. In February 2024, Bulgaria’s national news agency also opened one at the Bulgarian Antarctic base St. Kliment Ohridski on Livingston Island.
BTA Director General Kiril Valchev announced before the vessel’s fourth voyage to Antarctica on November 7 last year that the national news agency would send its own special correspondent in January–February 2026.
The press clubs at the Bulgarian research vessel and the Bulgarian Antarcic base are added to BTA’s other 41 national press clubs (33 in Bulgaria, seven abroad in neighboring countries and in countries with large Bulgarian communities, and one mobile National Book Press Club).
The reports of BTA’s special correspondents on RSV 421 and in Antarctica are freely accessible in the special section “BTA’s Ship Log” in Bulgarian and English (# Bulgaria – Antarctica / Bulgaria – Antarctica) and may be freely used by all media outlets, crediting BTA.
Kiril Valchev recalled that thanks to its correspondents, the agency appears among the top results in Google when searching for the phrase “Antarctica correspondent.” RSV 421 Enters Drake Passage 2026 THE NEWS FROM BULGARIA – NEWS AGENCY 2009-2025 2026-02-17 20:44:00 Latest news World news Country news Most important news latest news most important latest of the day Justice Petar Nizamov Feathers Petar Nizamov- Feathers Justice bg iustitia.bg iustitia iusticia usticia investigation Burgas Bulgaria news news of the last hour news of the day news of today Bulgaria news The news from Bulgaria blitz news top news most important most commented latest news Boyko Borisov news weather coronavirus news news weather facebook youtube facebook instagram news today news of the last minutes news today today news news bg news leading news hot news bg news site for news all news news bg news of the last hour latest latest news bg news of today news today news today news of the last hour latest news today news bg news news 24 hours news vesti bg novini news world bird bg bivol bg bivol trud bg novini latest news today novinite bg news hello bulgaria political party coat of arms delyan peevski scandalous Bulgarian National Television Free Europe Television scandal exclusive live tv live right now tv tv online tv program bg live now tv news online tv online live court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas district court Burgas appellate court Burgas prosecutor Burgas prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev Prosecutor Geshev Tsatsarov Ministry of Internal Affairs Burgas ODMR Burgas ODPR Burgas police Burgas district police Burgas prosecutor Tsatsarov SGS cases Varna court chairman of the SGS court decisions on civil cases decisions on cases Plovdiv court decision of the court decisions cases Varna court criminal cases district district court decisions work in the court SGS chairman of the SGS judges Sofia court post judges Plovdiv court Plovdiv judges Plovdiv Supreme Court Inspectorate Supreme Court Supreme Judicial Council lawyer lawyer criminal cases lawyer civil cases lawyer marriage cases lawyer administrative criminal law criminal process civil law civil process administrative law constitutional law
