NZ Antarctic Scott Base Official Web Page.   See bottom of this list for more information.

The American Antarctic Support Associates Official Web Page.  It has a whole heap of things for those interested in the Antarctic. Just a quick note: The ASA no longer have the contract to look after McMurdo because of the Y2K handover. Another company called Raithion (I think that's the spelling) now has the contract so look for it on the Internet.

Lonely Planet Web Site on Antarctica  They seem to have forgotten Scott Base exists last time I looked at their web site.  It is, however, in their hard copy book. (I checked!) The web site is good, but the book is excellent!
Antarctica; Really Good Facts and Pictures Good reference information; worth a look. 

The Learnz Program,  Designed to help teachers and students learn about Antarctica.

A New Zealand Philately site which also specializes Antarctic exploration  Steve lives and works in Christchurch NZ and is a very keen Antarctic enthusiast which shows in his website.

Just another one of many good Philately sites  - from Michael de Jong of the Netherlands.

A Fishy Site.   Clive Evans, a very prominent scienctist on the ice, has his own web site relating to his specialty - fish and not just any fish.  Many of these creatures survive and thrive in Antarctica only because of their unique qualities. See his site and find out.

 


Below is a brief list of the sites which can be found by going to the Official Antarctica New Zealand web site and look under the related sites section. There you will find information about Scott Base, situations vacant, student courses, science project information and much, much more.

I have not included the hyperlinks (the original site has them ) because this is only to give you a small  idea of  what you can find in only one of the various sections they have.  They update all the time so check often.
