On Wednesday night four contributors to the Beagle project were involved in a serious car crash in Argentina, near Puerto Madryn. Petra Niegeman, who was visiting her partner, soundman Charles Kersten, died in the accident. The ship’s doctor Charles Boissevain and historian Jane Cameron were seriously injured and are still in hospital in critical condition. Radio reporter Marten Minkema suffered minor injuries. VPRO and the clipper Stad Amsterdam are doing everything within their means to support family, friends and colleagues.
The Beagle project reconstructs Darwin’s 5-year long voyage on the HMS Beagle in the course of one year, and makes an attempt to assess where the world stands today in light of Darwin’s evolution theory. As Charles Darwin pondered on the origin of species, our focus now is on the future: Do we have reason to worry? Visit Beagle site.
