Exploration of the Antarctic continent was popular between the late 1800s and the early 1900s, ending in about 1922. There was some exploration conducted during the 1930s and 1940s by government/military sponsored expeditions.
Since 1960 -- the effective date of the Antarctic Treaty -- little exploration has been attempted or accomplished. The number of explorers since 1960 to the present day could number 20 or 30. Explorers mount their own expeditions and fund them by sponsorships. They are not funded by any government.
