Explanation:

PEOPLE IN THE ANTARCTIC

Antarctica is a frozen continent surrounded by an immense ocean. The climate is so extreme that there is virtually

no life at all on land; any life there is concentrated on the coast (seals, penguins, whales, etc.)1. No human beings

live in Antarctica on a permanent basis; however people have managed to endure short and extended stays on

the continent during the past 200 years.

THE explorers: A BALANCE BETWEEN PHYSICAL ACHIEVEMENT AND science

Because it was so difficult to reach, the Antarctic was the last region of the world to be explored. Until the 18th

century, the frozen continent remained very much a figment of people’s imaginations. Then in 1773, the English

navigator and explorer James Cook became the first man to reach the southern polar circle (Antarctic Circle). Yet

it was not until 1820 that the Russian navigator F.F. Bellingshausen and his men discovered that Antarctica was

not just made entirely of sea ice, but a continent in its own right, because they saw a mountain there.

News about the presence of seals in Antarctica spread quickly, prompting many fishing boats to head south to

hunt the seals for their fur. By 1821, fifty or more boats had already made the trip, and these hunters were the

first persons to really discover the continent of Antarctica. One of them, James Weddell, reached the southernmost

point reached until then in 1823 (400 km further south than Cook). Between 1840 and 1890, the lure of the

South Pole lost its attraction for adventurers: the abundant herds of seals were thinning out and increasingly oil

was replacing animal fat as fuel for lamps. In spite of this, two scientific research stations opened in the Antarctic

as part of the first International Polar Year (1882-1883). The very first scientific expedition was led by Frederick

Cook, Roald Amundsen and Adrien Victor Joseph de Gerlache in 1897-1899. Their ship, the Belgica, was the

first vessel to overwinter in Antarctica.

The subsequent years saw a race to reach the South

Pole. The Pole itself was reached for the first time on

14th December 1911 by Norway’s Roald Amundsen.

Another expedition, led by the British explorer Robert

Scott, repeated the feat one month later, on 17th January

1912. The two expeditions had set out at virtually the

same time, but the Norwegians had equipment that

was better suited to the terrain and they were also more

experienced. Drained of all their physical strength, the

entire team of British explorers perished on their way

back from the Pole
