The Polar Regions: Discovery and Exploration
While the historic era of exploration in the Polar Regions provides unparalleled tales of courage and adventure, much polar science today continues to be about discovery: the opportunity to visit unseen places, discover new species and develop new theories. Find out more about the history of exploration at the poles, what current expeditions are discovering and the artists involved in communicating these adventures to us.
Secondary school students participating in the Polar Contests will be contributing resources to this site, which will become available in October 2007.
