Surviving Antarctica: Science and Discipline

Antarctica is the coldest, driest, and windiest place on Earth.

Temperatures here can fall below minus sixty degrees Celsius, strong enough to freeze exposed skin

in seconds. Yet, humans still live and work in this frozen wilderness.

But how do they survive? The secret is preparation, science, and discipline.

There are no permanent cities in Antarctica. Instead, people live in research stations designed

to withstand extreme cold. These buildings are raised above the ice to reduce

heat loss and prevent snow buildup. Thick insulation and airtight walls keep warmth trapped

inside. Clothing is another key to survival. People wear multiple layers,
