Antarctica is the last great wilderness on earth. Its lofty peaks spill forth dazzling glaciers and towering ice shelves, creating 100,000 icebergs each year. Given the hostility of Antarctica’s climatic extremes, you might think the region devoid of life; however, life exists here in great abundance—whales, seals, and thousands of seabirds, including penguins. Weather and ice conditions determine our path and landings, just as they governed the voyages of the Antarctic explorers of the past.
