Not sure if they'll get a Starlink terminal down there this season, especially given COVID-19 restrictions in New Zealand.
Most data and internet from pole is via ~4 hours of DSCS a day, ~4 hours of skynet (slowww...) or when TDRSS decides to gives South Pole time (but in small chunks of time).
I usually try to ssh in my experiment at Pole the start of DSCS time, which unfortunately can be in the middle of the night for me.
