As there are no time zones at either poles, scientists and explorers normally use the time zone they depart from. The Amundsen-Scott Polar Station at the South Pole uses New Zealand time (UTC+12, UTC+13 during daylight saving time) since all flights to McMurdo station depart from Christchurch and therefore all official travel from the pole goes through New Zealand.
