Who: Research Base
We are now interviewing Antarctica! As many people would think, it's very cold, -59°F, to be exact. The way people are able to get to Antarctica is they fly in a plane. The elevation is 9,300 ft. They have 65000 sq ft to move around in. 42 people are there this winter. They use 450k gallons of fuel for tractors. The rooms they stay in are small, but they are pretty comfy. The ice shifts 30 ft per year. They have some of the most fresh water in the world, and all they have to do is melt it. The coldest temperature was -107°F to -113°F. The average temperature is about -60°F, and the warmest it's ever been is about 8°F. The hardest parts of being there are that they have to miss holidays with their families and feeling home sick.
