What do you need on a Antarctic expedtion?

Answer 1

You need to purchase all equipment and supplies for survival on the journey, transport on and off the continent, and permits generally from the nation-states that claim the territory involved in your proposed expedition. As well, you'll need an expedition plan and access to on-tap emergency rescue and evacuation teams in case of an accident.

Note: a scientific purpose for your expedition could help in your fund-raising efforts.
