‼️ BASE IN ANTARCTICA ‼️ India will formally announce its plans to develop a new research station in Antarctica at the 46th Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (ATCM), PTI reported. The 46th Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (ATCM) and the 26th Meeting of the Committee for Environment Protection will be held in Kochi from May 20-30. Currently, India has two active research stations—Maitri and Bharti—in Antarctica. The first station, Dakshin Gangotri, was established in 1983 but had to be abandoned after it sank in the snow. Maitri, which was built about 35 years ago, is called a village, while the 12-year-old Bharti is a state-of-the-art facility with all the trappings of a luxury hotel but without the elaborate staff.

With the way climate change is rapidly transforming Antarctica, having updated research facilities is crucial. Hopefully, this new station incorporates advanced climate monitoring and data collection capabilities.

That's some great news! It's great to see India investing more in Antarctic research capabilities. Having an additional modern station will really boost our scientific endeavors on the continent.

I wonder where exactly they plan to build this new station? The existing Maitri and Bharti stations are quite far from each other. Building in a new geographic region could open up different areas of study.
