Antarctica, the white continent / Nov.,2011

Antarctica, the white continent, of

ten called as the last wilderness of

our planet earth, stands isolated at the

earth’s southern most part today. This huge

landmass covered with a thick blanket of

ice throws relentless challenges to the

adventurous instinct of mankind. It is wild,

breathtakingly beautiful and still remains

unexplored fully by man. The pristine

environment makes the icy continent a

unique place to conduct scientific research.

Very wisely, the world has designated

Antarctica as the continent for Peace and

Science. Today, we have realized that

A n t a r c t i c a   i s   a   v i r  t u a l   s t o re h o u s e   o f

     

information about many mysteries of the

earth. This frozen continent holds the key

to the story of drifting continents and the

past climate of earth. It also controls the

key to global climate-pattern of today.

Antarctica is the highest, coldest and

windiest continent.  With very low amount

of snowfall and practically no rainfall, most

of the continent is technically a desert. The

Antarctic icecap stores almost 70% of the

world’s freshwater and 90% of ice.
