Trivia Whiz
The Coldest Place
on Earth
Antarctica, home
of the South Pole, is
the coldest, windiest
and driest continent
on Earth. The highest
temperature ever
recorded in
Antarctica was
58 degrees
Fahrenheit; the
coldest was
129 below zero.
Norwegian Roald
Amundsen was
the first person to
reach the South
Pole, arriving on
Dec. 14, 1911.
Antarctica has no
government. It is run
under the terms of
the Antarctic Treaty,
which declares that
the continent be used
only for peaceful
scientific research.
Dozens of nations
have signed the
treaty since it was first
written in 1959.
There are 1,000 to
4,000 researchers in
the polar region at
any one time.
About half a dozen
penguin species live
on the continent.
