Description:
A new concept of attitude stabilization for thermal probes or coring drills in ice eliminates instability. The center of support is placed above the center of gravity. A lower and an upper hot point produce melt penetration. The ratio of their power levels is the basis for stabilization. This is provided by the automatic control of the heater in the upper hot point.
