Antarctica is the southernmost continent on Earth, and it is the fifth largest. It is located at the South Pole in the southern hemisphere, and it consists of a glacier-covered landmass surrounded by the Southern Ocean. Antarctica is the coldest, driest, and windiest place on Earth, with a harsh and extreme environment that makes it difficult for human habitation. However, despite the harsh conditions, Antarctica is home to unique wildlife and natural resources that are of incredible scientific interest. The continent is governed by the Antarctic Treaty System, which promotes scientific cooperation, environmental protection, and peaceful relations among the countries that have claimed territories in Antarctica. The Treaty also prohibits military activity, nuclear testing, and mineral exploitation, which helps to preserve Antarctica as a pristine and valuable scientific laboratory. Each year, researchers from around the world travel to Antarctica to study its geology, climate, and biodiversity, as well as to conduct experiments in astronomy, astrophysics, and microbiology. Antarctica is also a popular tourist destination, attracting thousands of visitors who come to experience its stunning scenery, unique wildlife, and extreme environment.

Winner of three 2020 International Photography Awards and named Photographer of the Year from the Tokyo International Awards, explorer Sebastian Copeland's stunning photography delivers unparalleled access to the least explored continent on Earth and galvanizes our awareness of the threats of global warming. Winner of three 2020 International Photography Awards and named Photographer of the Year from the Tokyo International Awards, explorer Sebastian Copeland's stunning photography delivers unparalleled access to the least explored continent on Earth and galvanizes our awareness of the threats of global warming. Antarctica's ice sheet is a powerful entity, alive and dynamic. It is up to three million years old; its mass is constantly and imperceptibly moving, finally calving to the sea. Deep in the heart of the continent is a barren desert of snow, while the coast teems with life: the dominion of whales, birds, penguins, and seals, which had previously evolved outside of human contact. Until recently, scientists thought Antarctica had remained mostly untouched by climate change. But now they have warned that the ice is indeed melting-- and quickly. "My research there gave me a deeper perspective of the subtle variations taking place at the hands of climate change," says Copeland. "The images I bring back tell the story of a changing envi- ronment that spells the oncoming redrawing of the world's map, and all that it implicates."
