In winter temperatures at the North Pole can range from about −43 °C (−45 °F) to −26 °C (−15 °F), perhaps averaging around −34 °C (−30 °F).

Summer temperatures can average around the freezing point (0 °C, 32 °F).

The North Pole is a point in the Arctic Ocean. Canadian territory extends to the North Pole.

Under International Law, no country currently owns the North Pole or the region of the Arctic Ocean surrounding it. Each of the five surrounding Arctic nations are allowed a 200 nautical mile (370 km, 230 mile) EEZ around their coast, but the area beyond that is controlled by the International Seabed Authority.

The geographical poles are the North and South Poles. The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles.

the north is in the upper part and adn the south is in the lower part

that's why it's important to separate the north from south

The first Europeans to arrive in North America -- at least the first for whom there is solid evidence -- were Norse, traveling west from Greenland, where Erik the Red had founded a settlement around the year 985. In 1001 his son Leif is thought to have explored the northeast coast of what is now Canada and spent at least one winter there. Many European fishermen fished the waters off the northern coasts of North America and the US but did not settle there.

• the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, both the Southern and Northern Hemispheres are tilted toward the Sun, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, and the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun.

The South Pole does not have a nickname. It is located on the Antarctic continent. A nickname used for the Antarctic is "South". The US base, McMurdo, is nicknamed "Mactown".

The ice caps are melting so rapidly that the oceans are fast rising ... they are currently rising at 3.4mm a year, which is much faster than the average of 1.7mm per year.

Glaciers cover approximately 3% of Alaska (28,800 square miles).

Because When You Think About Them On In Side There's The North Pole On The Top Its The South Pole So When You Really Think Of It There On Opposite Side So Thats Why

Antarctica

The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles. The South Pole is located on the continent of Antarctica. Unless you are using a navigational aid such as a GPS or similar, there is a big marker and a sign indicating that you are at the South Pole.

Sunrise at the South Pole is on about the 21st of September every year. Sunset is on about the 22nd of March the following year. The reverse is the case at the North Pole. So a polar day is about 6 months and a polar night is also about 6 months.

The North Pole, as it is an imaginary point on the Arctic Ice Cap, which floats on top of the Arctic Ocean.

in north poles their are fishes in south pole their are penguins

The North Pole is not so much a thing as it is a place: Thursday, August 2, 2007 Russian expedition Arktika 2007 made the first descent to the ocean bottom below the North Pole, and planted a titanium flag of Russia on the seabed. Submarines have in the past traveled below the Arctic ice cap, but this is the first time man has reached the seabed below the North Pole. The Mir-1 and a second Mir-2 submarine face the challenge of diving 13,980 feet (4,261 metres) deep, and then having to resurface at the exact location where they've submerged, because they are not strong enough to penetrate the ice themselves. The nuclear ice-breaker vessel Rossiya is keeping the ice open for the research ship and the submarines. * http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Russia_made_the_first_descent_to_the_ocean_bottom_below_the_North_Pole

because it is awesome

Roald Amundsen and Robert Falcon Scott both explored Antarctica at the same time in 1911. Amundsen was aware of Scott's objective, but Scott was not aware that Amundsen was right behind him.

Roald Amundsen got there first on 14th of December, 1911. Amundsen reported that he saw no sign of Scott.

Scott reached the South Pole on 17th of January, 1912, acknowledging in his diary that Amundsen had got there a month earlier. The last members of the Scott expedition were found dead by a relief party two years later in 1913.
