What It’s Like To Spend A Year In The Beautiful Wastes Of Antarctica

Antarctica is an isolated, frigid desert of ice and snow. It’s practically another planet. And it can be staggeringly beautiful. Ian Hey did something most of us would never dream of and spent a year there. This is what it was like.

The footage, stills, and timelapses cover a variety of events in and around the Halley VI lab, from getting supplies to taking care of maintenance to just hanging out. It’s all fantastic. Kinda makes you want to visit right? Except, you know, not really. Maybe it’s enough to just watch this twice. [Ian Hey via Reddit]
