8:34 am
inaccessibility which is also here in antarctica. 2 even music sounds different here to anywhere else on earth. in fact everything feels different. people from more than 30 countries and cultures live together in a close friendly community. antarctica is a very international community and most definitely historically and presently there are many. is the beauty of research work in antarctica that it is driven by sharing of resources because you cannot survive in this continent if you want to do it on your own so there is
8:35 am
a very active. it's almost a ball throwing culture of we do this for you then you help us out in another area . was there's greater because i should. walk. by a few years it's as a crowd now. closer to a pivot chord that. everyone here knows that a trauma surgeon is spending the winter at russia's billings house and station that means anyone who's injured get sent to him. chileans have a dentist so everyone goes to freebase to have their teeth. next.

8:37 am
scientific research collaboration and respect up all the turnout in antarctica that's the agreements to which the people of earth have now and here for 60 years cooperation in antarctica is everything you know the author of the treaty has said as a place for peace and for science so is or open to everybody any scientists who want to work in antarctica is welcome to go there to corroborate with others. on december the 1st 959 in washington d.c. 12 countries signed the antarctic treaty that came into force on june the 23rd 961
8:38 am

8:39 am
the arrival in antarctica of the research vessel academic field off can only mean one thing the shift change for russia's polar explorers. 730 just can't stand for whatever they think i didn't hear that off. the thought of it yet. so some thought that if i what got me out of it yeah. after an 11 month tour of duty some will go home and others will take their place living and working on this continent finance. they sometimes jokingly call themselves and talk to kenyans what makes them tick for a year they'll work remembering a home but most of all their dreams. so

why i went to antarctica i can't remember i was born with a vicious thing to grow turned out because. the real killer was size book one of your noble solicits. we discovered of course folk. i don't where we were. born. to. go. to go back but we decided not to take people's lives. they don't care about experience. that somebody would say oh yeah i know everything better than you guys
8:48 am
because i've been here before and so experience doesn't come. about without. 2 the scientists of i'm talk to have a keen interest in absolutely everything that. i will go but it's going through a period of changing and understanding which aspects of those changes are part of natural cycles and. being able to tease apart where there is
8:49 am
a human influence is extremely valuable. since then i did seismological measurements i tried to measure men's. ice movements and also we had magnetic measurements that's concerned on the. magnetic field. get stronger or weaker and how it changed direction and also how the poor doing. here comes under scrutiny here too they analyze its composition and record the wind speed water snow and ice are also monitored there was a. physical observatory. and then sort of the beginning of the present work process started working the data then ultimately chip this and sort of developed this whole thing to a larger area and what i'm doing now. another subject of particular interest stones
8:50 am
of. the type of the rockets morphett and it has if you look closely and it has. caps in there and they look like this is and. i would be. nice is the rock type. they also study what little soil there is but only one percent of antarctic land consists of it and to be exact that's permafrost. would still be at he meets you can notice the world. knows that the group was worthless lurch. was also. a loner for the old soul of slate. and of course the scientists always paying close attention to antarctica's flora
8:51 am
and fauna. the water was curious increasing the when the term photo more than your truth has consequences for the penguins. in the real. all teary. for color small. who. knows. the recall food hoping. so. deep in its ice and waters antarctica holds many undiscovered truths about the past and future of our world. scientists believe that if this land ever chooses to reveal its secrets they could change our lives. very
8:52 am
much there are threats. i doubt. me. states. that no scientific research atoll would be possible without one essential element. but what could that be on this remote continent. some rumors assumed. they thought windows didn't see it it beats me it will sit there you as that of course that on this yes they live when i was in it it between us that way. during the summer 25 people work at the vast uk station only 10 to 12 stay for the
8:53 am
winter. it was long ago that these buildings last saw sunlight they're totally covered in snow and the only way out is through a snow tunnel. such total isolation leaves its mark on the relationships within a team. who. did. it would just shift unable to. do it would fulfill if michigan churches used if their. fortunes in that range would be a lot of fish if jordan is just ridiculous it. would. push a pundit class.

the antarctic sun beats down with unbelievable strength. ultraviolet levels here are the highest on earth and magnified several times over by reflecting off the white snow without adequate protection can burn to blindness cheekbones to blisters and lips to bloody to scabs. it's all due to the ozone hole which is incredibly big. it was discovered here in antarctica in 1805 the breakthrough the changed everything we ever thought we knew about the atmosphere. we had thought that there was too much ozone that it was poisoning our biosphere and causing the greenhouse effect. but while working here scientists cleared all that up and calmed everyone down it appears every august to terrify humanity but in december it disappears as though it never existed when the hole is open the sun's rays easily penetrate the atmosphere
8:55 am
and rapid heating causes giant pockets of that a whirl around antarctica. that is how severe. cyclonic storms get started. the research vessel academic field out of has unloaded all of its vital cargo of fuel and machinery scientific equipment and provisions.
8:56 am
supplies for the inland optic research station will be loaded onto a huge sledge is told by tractor has this caterpillar sledge train will then set off on a journey. the column never stops for a moment to cruise keep it going while one is at the wheel the other sleeps in the train up. in the marsh in your budget. but as we know that it's about that is that it was my. god it was you who. were the pseudo understood. the drivers are on the icy road for 2 to 3 weeks the snow covered ground resembles
8:57 am
the scene but these waves dust solid stone and the trailers rock from side to side . drivers with the skilled. navigate the terrain without waking the companions most in demand. to say goodbye to the loss of what you used to be. able to get. this is this. huge secret shade of. some you know that. you know the little. swedish emerge with 3 or more and she was. on this harsh and dangerous route anything can happen in these icy conditions the engines are starved of oxygen and eventually stored and breakdown repairs have to be performed
8:58 am
on the spot in temperatures of minus 50 degrees celsius so. the. only states which. goes a bore much more than they. are just throwing. there's no time to waste every expedition member knows that the track to train must keep moving no matter what if it doesn't make it no one will be able to spend the winter at the bus dock and the station will die. the reason why your friends when folk out there instead of to real troubles is of these bakers to carry very heavy loads you have to realise that the trouble is. there's every year between the course i've got a station in the only way to supply or the cargo that the station requires this represents about $500.00 tons of cargo where you're being transported so it's
8:59 am
a lot of. cmos you have a pretty new to me that is was initiated. by let me get certain members of the board got up with that person. but if you do. believe in your argument is your man but it's little. child's seemed wrong why don't we all just don't call. me to be yet to shape our disdain comes to educate and in detroit it equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
