Douglas
Mawson's Australasian Antarctic Expedition of 1911 brought the first
airplane ever taken to the Antarctic. It was 'wingless' and to be
used more as a tractor, what type of airplane was it?

· Dr Jerri Nielsen
We at the National Science Foundation and U.S. Antarctic Program
are saddened to hear the news of the death of Dr. Jerri Nielsen
FitzGerald on Tuesday, June 23, 2009.
During her time as the physician at NSF's Amundsen-Scott South Pole
Station, Dr. FitzGerald was a dedicated member of the station team,
and we will always be appreciative of her service to the US Antarctic
Program and the scientific mission that continues there.
Dr. FitzGerald's cancer diagnosis while at the station and her subsequent
evacuation in October of 1999 made her a public figure through circumstance
and not through choice, yet she was able to inspire and educate
others diagnosed with the disease and continue practicing medicine.
We extend our sympathies to her family, colleagues and community
as they mourn her loss....(more)

“Snow melter shoveling is one of the exciting experiences
you get at only small inland stations, so consider yourself one
of a select group.”— Your Stay at Byrd Station 1970-71.
That little excerpt from the 10-page New Byrd Station guide from
more than 35 years ago is a light-hearted reminder that life in
Antarctica’s vast backyard is far from the comforts of home
— or even the relative luxury of McMurdo Station .
At 80° south latitude and 119° west longitude, it’s
not a spot on the world map suitable for a family vacation. The
Navy personnel charged with establishing the first Byrd Station
during 1956-57 for the International Geophysical Year (IGY) at first
balked at the idea of heading some 1,000 kilometers by tractor train
across the unknown, crevasse-ridden ice of West Antarctica. But
they drove the distance — twice in one summer — and built
one of the first research stations deep into the interior of the
continent....(more)
