Resumo

I left Los Angeles at midnight on Friday the 11th of May. I was the second through passenger by Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) over the polar route direct to Moscow. Murray Gell-Mann, who attended the conference, was the first such passenger and had his picture taken boarding the plane the day before. We first landed at Winnipeg and then flew over Hudson Bay and Baffin Island and landed in western Greenland, at South Stromfjord, just above the Arctic Circle. (From here on, I'll take it directly from my diary.)
