Thanks for all of the questions!!!This is my first time to Antarctica although I have wanted to come here for a long time. I applied to PolarTREC which matches science teachers and scientists together. PolarTREC accepted me into the program almost a year ago.
I have been here since Dec29th. I have not touched the ocean water, except in the aquarium, but its temperature is about 28 degrees F. Which is cold!!!
Polar bears only live in the arctic which is up north.
