A few days later, Captain Whiskers arrived at the port where the icebreaker «Valiant» was docked. He was amazed by the size of the ship, which towered over him like a skyscraper. When he boarded the vessel, he was greeted by Captain James, a rough but friendly man who introduced himself as the captain.

«Welcome aboard, Captain Whiskers,» said Captain James. «I’ve heard a lot about you and your incredible space adventures. It’s a great honor for me that you’ve joined us on this expedition.»

Captain Whiskers smiled, feeling a surge of pride from the captain’s words.

«Thank you, Captain James. I’m very happy to be here and help in any way I can.»

The captain showed Captain Whiskers to his cozy cabin with a porthole overlooking the ocean. The cat settled in comfortably, feeling the soft rocking of the ship as it headed towards Antarctica.

Over the next few days, Captain Whiskers explored the ship, befriended the crew, and got to know his fellow researchers. He was impressed by the advanced technologies on board, including advanced hydroacoustic equipment and underwater drones that would be used to study the Antarctic ecosystem.
