There are no time zones on Antarctica. Separate research facilities set their clocks to synchronize with their support nation headquarters on other continents.

All time zones make their way through the 'topics': there is no 'tropical time zone'. Antarctica has no time zones. Research stations set their clock so as to coordinate with their support countries' time zones. There is no standard.

What is the GMT in Antarctica?

Since Antarctica is at the South Pole, and all of the time zones have a common point there, logically, there would be a part of Antarctica that would occupy each of the time zones simultaneously. The better question would be "in what time zone is the South Pole itself?"

I am on earth but I'm not in a time zone nor am I between two time zones Where am I?

The time on ships on international waters is set by the Captain and usually matches the time of the ship's home port. Every sovereign government on Earth has assigned all of the lands under its jurisdiction, including uninhabited islands, to one or more standard time zones. The only land on Earth which is, by international treaty, not under the jurisdiction of any one country is Antarctica. Many countries have research stations on Antarctica, and each has chosen its own time zone. In most cases, they choose the same time zone as that of their major suppliers. For example, the Amundsen-Scott Station at the South Pole, which is a U.S. research station, keeps the same time as New Zealand (UTC+10 Apr-Oct; UTC+11 Oct-Apr). But the areas between research areas are not assigned to any standard time zones. So assuming you are on Earth, the answer is Antarctica.
