People who work in support of science live in scientific research stations. Buildings include dorms, mess halls, and surplus military structures. Every building is heated individually.
At the South Pole, there is one large building, but this is unusual among all the scientific stations on the continent.
People travel to Antarctica on cargo airplanes, or icebreakers. They eat what we eat, based on food brought in on supply ships. Water is de-salinated sea ice or melted surface ice.
They keep warm by wearing lots of thick, protective clothing. Scientists usually work there during the short summer season, and those who support science can remain for up to 12 months. Then, a six-week stint 'off the ice' is required before a worker can return to the continent.
There are many reasons why someone wouldn't want to live in antarctica, You wouldn't see your family very often because there is still limited travel there. You only with small communities of people and there'd be no escape from someone you hate. you can't keep pets there because the pet food doesn't get traded with antarctica. You'd get lonely if everyone there already has a couple.
No. People working in Antarctica in support of science generally keep the time zone of their supporting government. There is no standard time in Antarctica.
Not likely. In order to keep your body warm, you need energy supplied by food.
This is not a common phenomenon anywhere on earth.
Cut down on the amount of ships that transport tourists there. Tourists keep feeding the animals in Antarctica and so the Artic animals aren't hunting for food themselves but relying on humans. This just shows that somehow we need to stop people visiting Antarctica and just leave the poor animals alone.
Some people keep them as pets, others farm them for food. Pigs are intelligent pets and tasty food.
you would be in Antarctica.
Refrigerators in Antarctica, as opposed to anywhere else in the world, warm, not cool. This is because it is so cold there, that in order to keep food edible, it needs to be stored in warm temperatures.
They don't live there because the water is too cold for them to find food and keep warm.
Conventional wisdom dictates that trekking in Antarctica requires about 6,000 calories per day. Scientists and workers in support of science can consume about an additional 1,000 calories per day, simply because it takes that much more fuel to keep a human body warm in this polar climate.
Aboriginal people stored food in caves or in the ground to keep it cool. They also preserved meat with salt and other spices to keep it from spoiling.
Antarctica is the most extreme cold place on Earth. Thermal underwear helps keep body heat close to the body, thus preventing the onset of hypothermia, which can be deadly.
