Celebrating midwinter in the Antarctic

Available for over a year

Antartica is the one continent with no reported cases of Covid-19 yet and where isolation is a way of life. It's the site of three research stations of the British Antarctic Survey and teams have a particular way of marking the shortest day of the year.
