Explore Antarctica without all that snow and cold

Friday, February 24, 2006
While wandering around the National Geographic site earlier today, came across this interactive map of Antarctica. If you ever wondered what it was like way down under (like further down under than Australia) this is a pretty cool way to explore the continent, and learn about it's history as well.

You'll find information about seals, whales, and penguins of course, as well as information about Scott and Amundsen's race to reach the pole. Interesting stuff, and you can do it from the warmth of your own home.
