Antarctica is a continent that occupies 10% of the earth's surface. It is the highest, driest, windiest, coldest, darkest continent. The continent is covered with ice -- up to two miles thick at the South Pole. Only 2% of the continent is ice-free.

The continent is dedicated to science and is governed by The Antarctic Treaty.
