Re: Emailing Antarctica
Hi Kathleen,
Most bases now have e-mail facilities but bandwidth is extremely tight and work always takes priority. If you already know someone who is down south then it should be possible to send short personal e-mails. If you are looking to strike up an e-mail link with base members the likelihood of success is extremely low. Research and base duties always take priority. By all means give it a try but don't expect miracles. It might also be worthwhile doing a search for antarctic blogs as this is another way of contacting people who are down there.
