If you were traveling to Neptune, you would need to bring a space suit to protect you from the extreme cold, lack of breathable air, and high-pressure environment. You would also need essential supplies like food and water, as well as communication devices and scientific equipment for research purposes. Additionally, you may also need to bring solar-powered equipment to harness energy from the distant sun.
Given that all signers or governments that have ratified the Antarctic Treaty share scientific information with each other, and significant questions remain about the health of planet earth, it would be difficult to say that there is 'too much scientific work in Antarctica'.
