- Synopsis
- The continent of Antarctica is a cold and dangerous place, with towering glaciers and deep crevasses. In the summer, temperatures reach highs of only 2 degrees Celsius (36 degrees Fahrenheit), while during the winter, temperatures can reach lows of -60 degrees Celsius (-76 degrees Fahrenheit). Yet every year a few hundred scientists brave the elements to conduct important scientific research. What does it take to make the trip--and survive the winter--in Antarctica? (Set of 6 with Teacher's Guides and Text Evidence Question Card)
