LIFE in the EXTREME. Fun at 30 below! Here is a fun thing to do if you are ever in weather that rivals Antarctica. We got boiling water and then went outside in to -34 C temperature and threw the water into the air. The air of the valleys was so cold and dry that the water evaporated on the spot, and some particles fell to the ground as ice. Watch the movie of our fun, I am the one throwing up the water.

LIFE in the EXTREME. Here the days are getting shorter as we enter winter. For the next 48 days the length of our days will decrease by 30 minutes a day. This means that we lose in one day more then you gain in one week! But don't worry. It will not be until mid March that I start to really feel the effects of the darkening skies. At that point the days will start becoming noticeably shorter, for now we will just be having darker nights, which will be pretty fun. The eclipse that we saw was very interest...

LIFE in the EXTREME. Antarctic Exploration, a History:. First hypothesised the existence of Antarctica based on the notion of. They knew about the existence of the northern arctic area and thus inferred that there should be an equal but opposite such area in the south. This they called Ant-arctic which then became Antarctica. They never made it even close to Antarctica, it was just a lucky guess, made by philosophers rather than scientists! The first landing on Antarctica occurs by American, John Davis.

LIFE in the EXTREME. Penguin research has been going on in Antarctica for over 50 years now. It has been a highly debated area of research because of the currently changing climate and the possible longterm effects that will have on the Emperor, Adélie (photo), and Macaroni Penguins of Antarctica (make sure to click on the interactive MAP in the upper right corner of this blog to see the distribution of the various penguins in Antarctica).

LIFE in the EXTREME. The best way to really see an Aurora is by using a timelaps video function. This is where the camera takes an image every couple of seconds and then stiches them together in a movie format. Here is a great timelaps video showing how the moon never sets as it circles around Observation Hill in McMurdo. It also shows the wonder of the Southern Lights! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

LIFE in the EXTREME. Hypothesis 1: The pictures are FAKE. I think this is a great hypothesis. Several people have said they look fake, and I myself first thought the images were from a spam e-mail. However, after asking around in Antarctica and doing some research on the internet I have found that the pictures are not fake at all, this actually occurred near Palmer Station on the Antarctic peninsula. So we must REJECT this hypothesis. The pictures are REAL. The pictures ARE of a wave that froze in mid-air.

LIFE in the EXTREME. This is my final farewell to all the bloggers. Who have enjoyed my stories about Antarctica. I was on the seventh continent for three and a half months of the year. I watched the seasons change from summer (24 hour sunlight) to winter (9 hours of sun and dropping when I left). It was an amazing experience and one that I will not soon forget. Thank you for your comments and interest in my trip. Here are some photos (roughly in order) of the highlights of the trip. Fun at 30 below!
