Continent 7: Antarctica

Six teams of scientists arrive in Antarctica, the harshest continent on Earth, after years of planning and millions of dollars in expenses.

Scientists deployed to Antarctica are accustomed to frigid temperatures but few have experienced the Condition One storm that sweeps over Scott Base.

Continuing their struggle of enduring a Condition One storm, the scientists go through probably the toughest moment in accomplishing their mission.

Scientists have focused their research to determine how both climate change and direct human interference has affected the marine ecosystem.

The winter is coming - Scott Base sends teams out to finish their missions for the season while waiting for the arrival of supplies.

As winter approaches, most people finish up their science and leave the continent but not the skeleton crew remaining during the cold months.
