There May have been some native peoples living on the coast, but Antarctica is a frozen desert. unlike the Canadian arctic, there is no lakes or rivers in Antarctica, there fore there is no fishing.

One perpetually active volcano on the Antarctic continent is Mt Erebus, the southern most active volcano on earth.

politicians actually don't want t develop Antarctica because of the amount of money they will have to spend also because Antarctica is the most common place to get natural resources like coal, oil and krill. (krill is whale and fish)

Nobody has claimed Antarctica as their land. Nobody owns Antarctica or its resources. It is an international responsibility to keep it clean, free and safe from exploitation and human greed.

The following countries have territorial claims in Antarctica for research and scientific purposes in line with the Antarctic Treaty -

Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom.

The following countries have stations on Antarctica irrespective of territorial claims -

Argentina, Australia, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, South Africa, United Kingdom, USA.

The following countries have stations on the Antarctic Peninsula -

Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Korea, Poland, Russia, Uruguay, Ukraine, United Kingdom, USA.

The following countries have stations on sub-Antarctic islands -

Australia, France, Germany, South Africa, United Kingdom.

A few of these stations are manned all year round, most are only manned during the summer months and some are only manned occasionally.

This ocean si around 0 degrees or under so you wouldn't want to go swimming in there at anytime.

East Antarctica (mostly in the Eastern Hemisphere) is the much larger generally oval region of Antarctica, stretching from around 60 degrees W latitude eastward to 160 E latitude, south of Africa, Asia, the Indian Ocean, and Australia. East Antarctica is almost entirely covered by an ice sheet, and includes the South Pole.

On the other side of the Transantarctic Mountains is West Antarctica, the locations of the Ross, Ronne, and Larsen Ice Shelves, and the Antarctic Peninsula that stretches toward South America.

Due to oil being precious and it ruining out fast people believe its a waste to leave the Antarctica even though we know there may be oil there.

Average temperatures in the Antarctic interior get down to -70 degrees Celsius during the winter months and -35 degrees Celsius in the warmer months. The coastal temperatures are much warmer with a range of -15 to -32 Celsius in Winter and -5 to +5 Celsius in Summer. The interior of Antarctica is considered the world's driest desert because the extreme cold freezes water vapour out of the air.

Scientists travel to the Antarctic to perform field work based on the investigative question for which they have procured government funding.

Field work includes gathering data and materials to investigate the facts required to address the question at hand.

Scientists investigate questions in the Antarctica that relate to the health of planet earth.

For example, from Wikipedia:

"In biology, fieldwork typically involves studying of free-living wild animals in which the subjects are observed in their natural habitat, without changing, harming, or materially altering the setting or behavior of the animals under study."

Per the Antarctic Treaty, all activity on the Antarctic continent is conducted in pursuit of science regarding the health of planet earth.

There are no cities on the continent of Antarctica.

There are research stations, and there are times when the largest station is McMurdo Station with a transient population of about 1,000 souls.

Sand is tiny bits of stone that do not freeze. Water freezes. Antarctica is the driest continent on earth. So no, there is no frozen sand in Antarctica.

Antarctica covers 10$ of the earth's surface and is a cold, polar desert. It is the coldest continent on earth, with temperatures ranging from the mid-50s F to the mid-120s F below zero, depending on where you are on the continent, and the time of the year.

pros: there would be more resources for the earth when runs out of petol and stuff

cons: it would destroy the polar bear and penguin habitat

IT IS FREEZING COLD!

Antarctica is roughly the size of the United States and Mexico combined. It is roughly twice the size of Australia. It is the fifth-largest continent after Asia, Africa, North America, and South America.

There is nothing in Antarctica that would support the life of a butterfly.

Governments representing 80% of the population of planet earth have agreed that they are against developing Antarctica, and preserving all land south of 60 degrees S for scientific research about the health of planet earth. This agreement is represented by the Antarctic Treaty (1960).

The direction from Europe to Antarctica is generally south. More specifically, it would be south-southeast, as Antarctica is located at the southernmost tip of the Earth. This direction can be determined by looking at a map or globe and tracing a line from Europe, which is in the Northern Hemisphere, to Antarctica, which is in the Southern Hemisphere.

Yes in the bottom of the ocean,,,.... where my nan lives XD
