Team of Antarctic expeditionaries watching the landscape through the windows of the Airbus A320 carrying them from Hobart (Tasmania) to Mario Zucchelli (Italian coastal Antarctic base), as they approach the latter. These are the first summer campers. In red are those who will then take a Basler to the French coastal summer station of Cap Prud'Homme or Robert Guillard. They'll spend a few days opening it up and warming it up, before moving on to the Dumont d'Urville base (6km from Cap Prud'Homme), marking the end of wintering there. In blue: the expeditionaries bound for Concordia.

Platypus or Duck-billed platypus, Ornithorhynchus anatinus, hidden in the middle of the floating vegetation. It's a semiaquatic egg-laying mammal endemic to eastern Australia, including Tasmania. Together with the four species of echidna, it is one of the five extant species of monotremes, the only mammals that lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. The male's spurs deliver venom for defense. They have a sense of electroreception locating their prey in part by detecting electric fields generated by muscular contractions. Queensland, Australia
