Antarctica. The History of Studying the Icy Continent
More than 200 years have passed since the expedition of Faddey Bellingshausen and Mikhail Lazarev discovered Antarctica. The participants of the first Soviet Antarctic expeditions, which set off for the icy continent 70 years ago to begin its systematic study,...
continued their work. Our polar explorers had to work in the harshest and most inaccessible areas of Antarctica.
They were the first to reach the South Geomagnetic Pole of the Earth and the South Pole of Relative Inaccessibility. They established the first inland scientific stations and conducted research in Central and East Antarctica, as well as the seas of the Southern Ocean.
This book is about our compatriots who discovered and studied the last white spot on the map of the world, the icy continent about which almost nothing was known just a few decades ago.
The special feature of this edition is the numerous photographs, paintings, engravings, and sketches that tell the story of the pioneers of Antarctica.
