Antarctica is the southernmost continent on Earth, known for its extreme cold temperatures and icy landscapes. It is the driest and windiest continent, covered in a thick ice sheet that holds about 70% of the world’s fresh water. Despite being a desolate and inhospitable environment, Antarctica is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including penguins, seals, and various seabirds. Scientific research stations from multiple countries are also present on the continent to study its unique ecosystem and climate patterns.
