The Washington Post has created a new webpage entitled Exploring Antarctica with lots of nice information, including some cool audio and video files to help you get a feel for what’s it’s like way down under.
There is some nice photography here, and the site is very interactive, offering up all kinds of information on the Antarctic continent. There is even a live chat room area to discuss Antarctic topics with “experts”. Couple that with interesting facts, features on how to get there, and even a slideshow on Mt. Erebus, the souther-most active volcano.
Very cool stuff. Some of those images would make great desktop images for my computer (some are available for download), including a few that look like the Wampa ice cave from The Empire Strikes Back. Thanks goes to Daniel for this one.
Ha ha, I didn’t see the Star Wars connection initially, but I do now! Thanks 😉
No problem! 🙂 You’re talking to a big Star Wars fans so I can “feel the force” just about anywhere! 😉
