Awesome Antarctica

Antarctica is a great place for scientist to do their scientific researching on the land. It’s the most frosty, snowy, cold place in the WORLD!! Antarctica is a desert also known as the whitest continent in the world.

In Antarctica the explorers have to wear LOADS and LOADS  of layers to keep warm in the freezing weather and the strong wind. They have to make sure they don’t wear too much otherwise the wind will get trapped underneath their layers and it will keep them cold all the time.

Explorers in Antarctica live in cabins and huts that have tunnels to get to one hut to another.

Antarctica is a very dangerous place to have fires. Fires are a worry to the people who go to Antarctica because nobody would know how to put the fire out.

Animals are also important in Antarctica. Such as Penguins, Killer Whales and Albatross they all live in the Antarctic area. They all have different adaptations that help them survive in the dry areas in Antarctica.

The climate change in Antarctica is also very important. The hottest temperature in Antarctica is -17.5 °C. The coldest air temperature in Antarctica was -89.2 °C. Satellite measurements have found other even lower temperatures underground which is -93.2 °C.

I like Antarctica because scientist go there to study Antarctica. I also like Antarctica because of all the cute animals who can survive the COLD weather.
