Inside Halley, the British station in Antarctica

[@facethefaceandmore44]

So basically, humanity still managed to find a way of working a 9 to 5 in an office even at the end of the earth.

Which US station? There are 3 main ones.

[@thijswienholts521]

It's my biggest dream to ever do research on Antarctica, this station looks great. But it will be a hard way to ever get there..

[@rocketassistedgoat1079]

Just hide in a beer barrel till you get inside. You'll be fine. I believe in you.

[@daru_klas]

I really wish someone would do the kind of in depth tour of Halley that Jeffery Donenfeld or Gone Venturing did for Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. If you get beck to Halley you should do so. I would love a 45 minute in depth exploration of your facilities there.

[@Ti0midwest]

Me too bro it's soo interesting to learn about these places

[@thebigboyo5607]

Gone Venturing’s Viktor is such a legend like ! His videos are incredible of the US amundsen Scott station. The US station looks more cosy I have to admit like , although both would be cool

have the imperial forces found you yet? if an AT-AT walker invades, i recommend wrapping cables around the legs.

I curious of the architect that Maria Semple built. I just saw the movie and it was awesome. Such a smart and courageous woman.

[@moontan91]

there's only 6 of us left now. Bryce and Johnson are nowhere to be found. Finn was found naked outside, totally frozen, not only 30 feet from the base. we've been cut off since the solar flare. something they brought from the site they excavated a few miles away... i hope someone can read this message. tell my wife i love her.

Halley is around 20Km from the crack at the moment, Thanks for watching :)

why isn't everything connected? it can't be economical having to open doors all the time.

[@markpape6565]

The crack, could you not heal it, a machine that drive's both side's pouring something alomst ice water but something added to make it freeze in less than a minute, save the ice shelf from breaking off which it will do a ocean's would rise that amount of ice breaking off and well by the Everglades.

[@zakwanberlin]

Can people that aren’t researchers take tours of that base, and do you have to be British to actually work there? Let’s see if I get an answer from a over year old video...

still waiting then

Do you ever get bored or depressed and want to leave Antarctica?

[@jaskiranism]

Not really, I was only there for 3 months and was very pressed for time. Was too busy to be bored but if i didn't have work to do it would get tiresome quickly. The area is very flat without many features, but the base had a lot of games, musical instruments, a gym and movie stores for entertainment. Also there is a real community feel with great support structures if you're feeling down. Thanks for the question!

How much research do you need to do to realise its bloody cold and nothing grows there

[@rlt94]

That's not what they're researching, mostly space observation, particle physics research, global climate observation, and paleo-climate studies with ice cores. There are tundra areas on the continent's coast that are more mild, relatively speaking, and home to some plant life in the form of terrestrial algae, a few dozen moss species, and two small flowering plants (Antarctic Hairgrass and Antarctic Pearlwort), as well as some fungi and bacterial colonies, these are host to a few hardy insects and various birds and seals. In this part of Antarctica the living things are studied too for a variety of reasons.

[@DannyTruthMagnified]

The station is named after the astrophysicist who hypothesised that there was a giant opening at the center of the South Pole. Coincidence...?

[@rlt94]

@@DannyTruthMagnified Who are you talking about?
