What Antarctic Sled Expeditions Teach Us About the Human Body » Explorersweb
Thanks to a growing body of Antarctic research, scientists are beginning to understand what journeys on the coldest continent do to the human body.
In 1911, Scott and Amundsen reached for the South Pole with little grasp of human limits. A century later, tech and training have advanced, but sled hauling remains challenging. Three decades of research now reveal how Antarctic expeditions transform the body.
