On 17 January this year Ben Weber reached the South Pole after a 58-day, 700-mile trek alone across Antarctic ice and snow.
Born in Orkney, where his parents lived in Stronsay and then Stromness, he decided nine years ago to develop a new pattern of life, with a vision of a global journey cycling south through the Americas; skiing across Antarctica; cycling back north through Asia and then skiing across the Arctic Ocean. He returns to Orkney for this year's Science Festival to tell the story of his journey to the Pole.
