Terra Incognita

Dangerous crevasses
          Extraordinary, yes that's the word for it. Antarctica is extraordinary, just too different from the rest of the world we live in.

Beautiful nightsky

          Antarctica is a great mystery to all people. Numerous questions pop up. Why it even existed at the first place? How come it's so huge? Many will be surprised that neither polar bears nor Eskimos exists at this great land mass. 

          In this chapter, we bring to you facts and figures about the least known continent on the planet earth, its climate, its geography, its famous ice, how it evolved and almost everything you would want to know.
