Antarctica

people don't live on the polar ice cap but they do, do research on the caps.

There are fourteen articles in the Antarctic Treaty, plus a Preamble.

The windiest corner in North America is the corner of Portage Ave and Main St in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Swimming is not common in Antarctica, because the only liquid water is the Southern Ocean, which is too cold for the sport. The liquid water temperatures can fall to about 27 degrees F, because of all the minerals in the sea water.

Professional divers, however, are known to dive in Antarctic waters in search of scientific data contained in the benthos and the local sea life, and part of their extreme cold water diving gear may be socks.

According to Wikipedia:

"Mount Erebus was discovered on January 27, 1841 (and observed to be in eruption) by polar explorer Sir James Clark Ross who named it and its companion, Mount Terror, after his ships, Erebus and Terror (which were later used by Sir John Franklin on his disastrous Arctic expedition). Erebus was a primordial Greek god of darkness, the son of Chaos."

Every day, scientists are discovering answers to questions about the health of planet earth. These are the only discoveries allowed under the governance of the Antarctic Treaty.

Captain James Cook was the first to cross the Antarctic Circle, doing so in 1773. However, pack ice and the freezing of his ship's sails prevented him from reaching the Antarctic continent itself. The same thing happened when he again crossed the Antarctic Circle a year later.

Captain Thaddeus Bellingshausen, representing a Russian expedition, is said to have been the first to discover the actual continent of Antarctica, doing so in 1820.

The same as other countries - none. No country owns any of Antarctica. Many have claims and several of those overlap. The Antarctic Treaty ignores land claims and forbids future land claims.

Since you specify that your question is about water, please remember that water freezes at 0 degrees C or 32 degrees F and is no longer water, but becomes ice.

However, because of the mineral content in the water surrounding Antarctica, water can remain liquid down to about 28 degrees F.

Of the four deserts mentioned, the Sahara is the largest.

Both are continents on earth, and both begin with the letter A.

Common minerals that are found in Antarctica are antimony, chromium, copper, gold, lead, molybdenum, tin, uranium and zinc. There are also large deposits of coal and sedimentary iron found in some Antarctic areas.

Winter everywhere in the southern hemisphere begins on June 21 and spring begins on September 21. This means that the month of July is winter in Antarctica.

During the periods when there is no sunrise, you can walk outside with ease lit by stars and aurora. During the days before and after a full moon, you can read a book outside by moonlight and starlight.

They are both tropical rain forests and they are both warm and humid, with temperatures that vary from 26-28 degrees C.

New Zealand is smaller than Antarctica by about 40,000 sq. Miles

The Antarctician desert is a cold place in Antarctica with no water on the surface. It is the biggest desert in the world. It has a totally different temperature to other deserts, for it is cold all year round. The Antarctician Desert is bigger than the United States.

The strait between Cape Horn and Antarctica is called the Drake Passage.

People living in Antarctica are all scientists working on various projects. They continue their work even in the dark winter.

Both are deserts that receive little precipitation each year. The Sahara is a hot desert whie the Antarctic is a cold desert.

The name you want is Tierra del Fuego, Argentina.

No. The Titanic sank closer to the North Pole than Antarctica. She sank about 375 miles off the coast of Newfoundland.
