If you die in Antarctica -- after falling into a crevasse, for example, your body may not be retrieved, so you would be buried in Antarctica.
There are no formal graveyards on the continent.
Sir Earnest Shackleton left Antarctica several times, and also returned to Antarctica. He is buried in Grytviken, South Georgia.
You may be thinking of Antarctica.
Mawson left Antarctica in December 1913. Amundsen left Antarctica probably in February 1912, based on his arrival in Hobart, Australia in early March that year. Scott died on the Antarctic continent and remained there, buried in his tent.
Yes. The chances of a meteor hitting any one spot are pretty much the same across the entire planet. Antarctica is a good place to find meteorites, as they stand out against the ice and are not buried quickly due to the low snowfall rate
It would be more likely that more medeorites would be found in Antarctica because no one discovers them, and they do not get pulvarized when they hit earth. But good luck finding them though, all meteorites are probably buried under a thick sheet of ice.
In fact, 'poller bears' have all been buried in the poor spelling graveyard, sorry. And further, polar bears live in the northern hemisphere. Antarctica is too cold to support any form of life, or any sort of food chain.
Buildings in Antarctica do not sink. Blowing ice crystals, do, however, blow over buildings and cover them. For example, at least two facilities on the Amundsen-Scott South Pole station have been overwhelmed and are buried by ice crystals. These facilities have now been abandoned.
No. Shackleton's treks began from two sides of Antarctica, and neither trip resulted in a complete trek across the continent. Shackleton did, however, return home from all of his polar expeditions, except the last expedition. He died and is buried on South Georgia island.
At 1991 Dakshin Gangotri was abandoned. it was buried in ice. so India construct by new research station maitri. 2012 India is construct maitri 2 in antarctica.
No, it is actually an ice sheet or ice cap. 98% of Antarctica is buried under ice, in places more than 12,000 feet thick. Antarctica has many glaciers, including those that push into the Southern Ocean along its shores. Even larger structures, the ice shelves, extend into the ocean for many kilometers.
