Description

What EXACTLY is going on in Antarctica, anyway? Why are we humans down there, and what are we actually doing? These are huge questions that we’ll answer throughout episodes of Antarctica Did That For Me, but in this episode, you'll get a overview of what’s shakin’ in Antarctica.




In this episode, we provide an overview of Antarctica, including the Antarctic Treaty and the purpose of scientific research in the region. We discuss surprising science projects happening in Antarctica, such as the IceCube project and research on volcanoes. 




Then, we delve into life at McMurdo Station, the continent's largest base, covering topics like housing, food, and recreation. We also explore the operations and logistics involved in supporting the station, including transportation, supplies, and waste management.
