"Antarctica" is a site that covers land we do not know. Five sections explore this large land mass with virtual tours and fascinating facts. "Terra Incognita" is about the geography of Antarctica; "SubAntarctic Islands" looks at the islands of Antarctica; "Exploration" recounts the history of exploration in Antarctica and "Human Presence" shows how the presence of humans have affected Antarctica,. Other sections include "Life on Antarctica", about the life forms on Antarctica. There is a Flash version called "Virtual Antarctica" giving you the chance to tour the areas of your choice. This site should stimulate further exploration and research for those who are really keen on this topic.
