The local gravitational and magnetic fields were also measured. 120,000 km were flown, with over 20% of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet being explored during the course of the mission.

Information was recorded on a network of seismometers that picked up earthquake signals passing through the rock from the opposite side of the planet. Despite the extreme temperatures -- around -30 °C at the two base camps as reported by AGAP US co-leader Dr Robin Bell -- liquid water was detected in the valleys
