i always thought it would be kind of cool to go to antartica for the research aspect of it. the AF used to send people down there, but now it's all contractors.
sounds kinda neat - but then you look at the temperatures, and it's like -79F for the HIGH in wintertime. that , i'll pass.

| How the heck do the people that go down there even breathe? Those temperatures have to make it near impossible. |

...or you can take a tour. Very expensive, but worth it IMO. I want to go there too. |

I'll pass, if I want to "feel the Antarctica vibe" I can visit for free the big-ass freezer in the farmers market my dad works in. |
