The McMurdo Station, Operated by the United States.
Dakshin Gangotri was the first scientific base station of India situated in Antarctica.Edit:-Dakshin Gangotri was closed in 1989 due to being submerged in snow.Another one was built, called Maitri around 1988-1989. There is a lake near it called Lake Priyadarshini.Another one is being planned to be completed around 2012. It is tentatively named as Bharati.
The space station currently orbiting Earth is called the International Space Station (ISS). It serves as a research facility for various countries and is inhabited by astronauts from around the world.
A long-term orbiting platform in space is called a space station. These stations serve as research laboratories, living quarters, and operational bases for spacecraft. Notable examples include the International Space Station (ISS) and China's Tiangong space station.
The robotic arm of the international space station is officially called the Remote Manipulator System or RMS for short. In Canada it is usually referred to as the Canadarm, due the the fact that is was built in Canada.
yes, the international space station was always called the ISS
The largest research station on the Antarctic continent is called McMurdo Station. It is supported by the National Science Foundation, which represents the United States of America's interests there.
The United States of America supports three research stations on the Antarctic continent: McMurdo Station, Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, and Palmer Station.
Yes, Japan has a research station in Antarctica called the Showa Station. It is located on East Ongul Island in the Skarvsnes area of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. The station conducts research in various fields such as glaciology, geology, and meteorology.
All science centers in Antarctica are preceded by a [location name] Research Station. Location names can be Palmer, Davis, McMurdo, Scott Base and so forth.
France has a permanent research station in Antarctica called Dumont d'Urville. French is spoken at this station and by French researchers in the area. Additionally, French is one of the official languages of the Antarctic Treaty System, which governs the continent.
You can access Antarctica from New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Argentina, even South America -- with several cities being bases for tours or logistical support for scientific work being conducted on the continent.
The New Zealand base in Antarctica is called Scott Base. It is located about three kilometers from the US base, McMurdo Station.
If you mean base is a generic name for a research station, they are established on crevasse-free zones or near the coasts. Buildings are constructed there the same way they are constructed in the country supporting the station. Wood, metal and glass are all useful components for buildings in Antarctica.

The Continent of Antarctica
The largest hot desert, called the Sahara Desert, is in Africa. The Sahara is the second largest desert on earth after Antarctica.
Yes. Since January 12, 1956, there has been a permanently staffed French research base at "66°40′S 140°01′E / 66.667°S 140.017°E" called Dumont d'Urville Station.
