Antarctic Analog of a Long Duration Science Mission

Editor’s note: Have a look at Guillaume Dargaud’s web journal in which he chronicles his participation in the first winter-over at Condordia Station now underway at Dome C on the Antarctic plateau. According to the bases’ website: “The Italo-French winter group is made up of 9 technicians and 4 researchers that will begin in this first season the programs in the fields of the astronomy, glaciology, chemistry of the atmosphere, the earth’s sciences, microbiology and medicine in confined environments.”

You might also have a look at Kevin Hand’s Antarctic Journals (2005), Dale Andersen’s images from his 1997 trip to Antarctica, and my journals from two trips to Devon Island in the Canadian high arctic (2002) (2003)
