Why can't we live in the Antarctic?

Answer 1

There is no infrastructure there, no place to shop, or live, or work, or to support human life in any way.

However, there are people who volunteer to support science and serve their countries by living in Antarctica for short periods, up to six or 12 months at a time for some citizens.

Nations support scientific stations there, because Antarctica is a continent dedicated to science.

Answer 2

No animal can live on Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain.

However, today, there are temporary workers and scientists learning more about the health of planet earth there. All survive-ability is imported in the form of building materials, fuel, food, tools, equipment and so forth.

Answer 3

You can live in Antarctica.

First, you need the skills to support or scientific work, or credentials as a scientist, and then to be hired by a government to study the health of planet earth in Antarctic.

As well, you must pass rigorous mental, dental and physical examinations, and substantive background checks before you can be hired.

Your residence there will be temporary, for generally, six months or 12 months, depending on the government that hires you.

Answer 4

There are no residential facilities or tourist facilities on Antarctica. In order to live there for a 'short period of time', you could mount an expedition. You would be responsible for importing all equipment and supplies that you and your support team would require for the duration of your visit.

However, as an alternative, you could qualify to work in support of science, or perform scientific research there, and enjoy the experience of living on Antarctica for up to 12 months at a time. You can apply for this work through your country's government.
