Spotlights from the governor’s boat light the horizon during a journey from Longyearbyen to Barentsburg, Norway, Saturday, Jan. 7, 2023. It was carrying the children’s choir from Longyearbyen’s only church, Svalbard Kirke, to visit the even more isolated Arctic outpost of Barentsburg, which is run by a Russian mining company.
