Is it possible to live in Antarctica?

Answer 1

yes you can

In order to live in Antarctica, you must work for a government that sponsors, funds and conducts scientific research on the Antarctic continent.

The government entity that represents Antarctic science for the United States is the National Science Foundation.

Answer 2

Yes, but they would need very warm clothes!

Another answer:

People do live in Antarctica, courtesy of the taxpayers of their individual countries. People live there who work in pursuit of science. You can only live there if you have a job.

The United States is represented by The National Science Foundation there, for example. And the United States issues 70 pounds of extreme cold weather gear to people who live there and work for the US.

Answer 3

Yes, if you work for a government that signed the Antarctic Treaty, and you have skills that can support science, or if you are a scientist with a question about the health of planet earth.

Part of qualification to work and live there includes intense physical and mental examinations, which you must pass in order to get the job.

Answer 4

Yes. It is possible to live in the Antarctica, and many people do so. Anyone living in Antarctica is there based upon being employed by a government, and are either scientists or work in support of science.

They sleep in dormitories, eat in cafeterias. All supplies arrive by aircraft and boats. Those who remain are isolated during the winter months, when no boat or plane can reach them. They are not native born people, as there are native born people in all of the other continents. They are workers there to study the health of planet earth.

Answer 5

People die in Antarctica when they are careless and do not heed the advice dictated by the extreme cold weather conditions.

Very few deaths have occurred on the continent from natural causes. This is because anyone who qualifies to work and live there temporarily must pass rigorous mental, dental and health physicals prior to being hired.

Answer 6

With some difficulty.

There's no plant life there, and in the inland, almost no animals either. You'd have to bring all your food. Apart from that, it's like any other really cold place.

Answer 7

You could, if you were unprepared to deal with the extreme polar cold.
