What is ANTARCTICA?
Antarctica
is
a
land
of
extremes:
it
is
the
coldest
and
driest
continent
on
Earth
and
has
the
highest
average
elevation.
As
the
fifth
largest
continent
in
the
world,
Antarctica
is
also
the
most
Southern,
overlying
the
"South
Pole".
Scarcely
touched
by
humans,
the
frozen
land
boasts
breathtaking
scenery,
broken
by
only
a
handful
of
scientific
bases
and
a
"permanent"
population
of
scientists
numbering
only
a
few
thousand.
Visitors
to
Antarctica
generally
must
brave
rough
sea
crossings
aboard
ice-strengthened
vessels,
but
those
who
do
are
rewarded
with
amazing scenery and tremendous and unique wildlife.
Antarctica
has
been
the
location
where
many
unusual
events
that
have
been
taking
place
over
the
past
years.
