South Pole

The ancient Egyptians traveled north to south along the Nile River because the river's current flows from south to north. This made it easier for them to navigate and transport goods. Traveling east to west was more difficult due to the harsh desert landscape, which made it harder to travel and limited the availability of resources.

I can't tell you what time it is right now, because this question might be a year old or two hours old, so what I can tell you is if you live in Florida, it is Friday, 3:30 PM, and in Japan, it's Saturday, 4:30 AM. A way you can find out what time it is in Japan compared to your time is by finding out your time right now. Let's use California as an example. Say you live in California, then it is currently 12:30PM. So, if I live in Florida and you live in California, subtract both times. There is a three hour difference. If there is a three hour difference between Florida and California, and there is a day and an hour difference between Florida and Japan, then add three hours to the time that it is from Florida to Japan because you want to know what time it is from California to Japan, and if it is a three hour difference between California and Florida and there is a day and an hour difference Florida and Japan, then add up what time it is from Florida and California plus what time it if from Florida to Japan. So, if you use this pattern, I think you can find the time it is in Japan right now. I just used California as an example, but if you live in Colorado let's say, and you want to see what time difference you have with Japan, then switch the California with the Colorado, and switch the three hour difference to a two hour difference, and so on. Japan uses JST. I used Google to find what time it is currently in Japan! You could use it too to find the answer to your question (:

Hope I helped!

Thank you,

Because Antarctica is a "polar" region, there is no precipitation, it has no lakes or rivers and is in fact the driest continent.

Average temperatures in the Antarctic interior get down to -60 degrees Celsius during the winter months and -28 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.

Annual snowfall on the polar plateau is equivalent to less than 5 cm of rain.

Antarctica has some of the strongest winds on earth, with some winds reaching 320 kph.

Antarctica was the last continent to be explored because to travel there is hard

Human exploration is always limited by transportation. When people began exploring the earth's waters in ships, it was clear that polar waters were ultimately not navigable, given that errant icebergs could destroy a ship. This was too high a price to pay.

Until ships' hulls were reinforced to withstand a collision with an iceberg, nothing was known about the area of the Southern Ocean. Since this is the location of Antarctica, it was the last continent to be discovered.

Antarctica, the fifth largest continent on earth is covered -- 98% of it -- by an ice sheet. As gravity pulls the ice that flows off glaciers and ice tongues form in open sea water, the wave action breaks off the tongue and the ice floats away as an iceberg. This action takes tens of thousands of years.

The numbers of icebergs are innumerable: icebergs vary in mass from the size of a sedan to the size of New York's Manhattan Island. They float in the Southern Ocean and do not qualify as icebergs until they are wholly contained in sea water.

Antartica is good for tourism and visiting the vast area. Many people benefit from visiting antartica such as cruise liners as many people want to visit the stunning sight.

The Queen Elizabeth Islands (extreme Northern Canada) are the closest. Part of Greenland is even closer, but Greenland itself is largely an ice floe in it's northern area, and you did say "land mass".

Any latitude markers that are printed on any map or globe and are between

the equator and the south pole must be labeled as "South" latitudes.

The equator is an imaginary line that runs around the middle section of the earth. It is hotter there than at the north and south poles because the tilt of the earth on its axis causes the equatorial region to receive more direct sun rays than the poles.

The landlord can only seek possession during a fixed term of a tenancy (for example the first six months of a shorthold tenancy) on the grounds shown in italic type. Mandatory grounds - for which the landlord must have advised the tenant in writing before the tenancy began that s/he might be seeking possession: * Your landlord used to live in the house and wants it back (at least two months notice must be given) * The house has been repossessed and the mortgage company need to sell the house with vacant possession (at least two months notice must be given) * Your house is needed for a minister of religion and you were given notice of this when you moved in (at least two months notice must be given) * The tenancy is for a fixed term of not more than eight months and within a year before you moved in the house was let as a holiday home (at least two weeks notice must be given) * The tenancy is for a fixed term of not more than 12 months and within a year of moving in the house was let to students by the place where they were studying and you were given written notice of this before you moved in (at least two weeks notice must be given).

The angle at which the suns rays hit the earth is more nearly perpendicular, therefore more energy is delivered per unit area. Secondly the rays pass through much less atmosphere so less energy is absorbed by the atmosphere.

Use north, east, south and west...

North.

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.

500km

south

Captain Lawrence Edward Grace Oates, a British explorer, was a member of Robert Falcon Scott's ill-fated expedition to the South Pole in 1912. He died during the return journey from the pole, famously saying "I am just going outside and may be some time" before walking into a blizzard to sacrifice himself for the rest of the team.

In the North Pole the Artic has a natural melting cycle while in the South Pole its ice shelf has the same size and shape. Penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere while Polar Bears live in the Northern Hemisphere.

As seen from the south pole, the sun rises once, around September 21,

and sets once, around March 21, each year.

The Winter Solstice on the 21st of June is the day that the sun is furthest away from 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.
