Explore a whole continent in one colorful page.
Our Antarctica comic starts with the polar map itself, the South Pole at the center, ringed by the Southern Ocean. Tour the vast interior ice sheet, the rocky peaks and coastal ice shelves, and the bare Dry Valleys where the ground shows through.
Meet the emperor penguin, whose males keep the egg warm on their feet, and the Weddell seal, and find the continent's only two native flowering plants. See how scientists live and work at the research stations under the Antarctic Treaty. Visit the South Pole, steaming Mount Erebus, and Lake Vostok, a huge liquid lake hidden beneath the ice.
Learn why polar bears do not live here, and meet the record holders: Mount Vinson, the coldest continent and largest desert on earth, and the coldest temperature ever recorded, minus 128.6 degrees at Vostok Station in 1983.
One full-color printable page. Print at home or in class as often as you like.
