Amundsen-Scott South Pole Neutrino Observatory

Currently, we are chatting with Antarctica (4 o’clock pm)!  They just informed us that they have not seen the sun in over three months!  In January, it was colder in Wisconsin than it was in Antarctica, how fascinating! The continent of Antarctica is resting on about 10,000 feet of ice.  The ice sheets move about 33 feet per year towards the ocean. In Antarctica, they often go uni-cycling for fun! They also play board games, computer games, or watch movies.  They can even buy things on Amazon! We loved hearing about what it was like in Antarctica! Thanks for chatting with us! #OLSmith24HourWorldTour2019

  1. Interesting fact about being colder in Wisconsin during the winter. Was that the entire month average temp or just a day or two it was colder there?
