** At the end of the earth, there is a vast and mysterious area, that is-Antarctica. ** Here, ice and snow cover the earth, which is silent, but hides countless mysteries; as the last continent on earth to be unveiled, the vast area of Antarctica is shocking, reaching an astonishing 14 million square kilometers, even more vast than China's territory.

然而，这片辽阔的领域被戏称为“The largest uninhabited area on earth”，并非任何国家所有，而是由全球共同呵护和监管； 南极洲的地理位置别具特色，被海水环抱四周，其气候险峻极端。这里的温度极低，常年冰雪覆盖，几乎无人能够永远在此居住。

However, in this extreme environment, Antarctica has become a precious treasure house for scientific exploration. 它凝聚着地球上最古老的冰层，厚重的冰层记录着地球气候变迁的史诗；其独特的地质构造为我们揭示地球演化的奥秘提供了珍贵线索；而丰富的生物多样性虽然种类有限，却蕴含着每一种生命如何适应极端严寒环境的奥妙，为生命科学的探索开辟了崭新的视角。

Antarctica's rich resources have become a global focus. Although the Antarctic Treaty explicitly prohibits the development of mineral resources in this mysterious continent, there is no denying that the mineral resources hidden therein are of great value.

这片遥远而神秘的南极大陆隐藏着丰富的coal、iron、oil和natural gas 等财富。这些宝贵的资源不仅仅对于国家经济的发展至关重要，更具有战略上的深远意义。

In this era of limited global resources, the resources of Antarctica have attracted the attention of all countries. How to rationally develop and utilize these resources while respecting the environment has become an urgent issue for the international community.

Faced with this tempting field, all countries are reluctant to miss opportunities for scientific research and exploration, and Japan is one of them.

As early as the early 20th century, Japan launched exploration and scientific research activities in Antarctica. They have successively established multiple scientific research stations in Antarctica and carried out long-term scientific research in climate, ecology, geology and other fields.

**南极洲，正成为国际科学探索和资源争夺的焦点。**在这个极地世界的舞台上，Japan 不仅仅是一名参与者，更是一位积极的引领者，通过其南极科考活动，日本不仅在国际科学界的地位得到了提升，还在南极洲的资源竞争中赢得了先机。

However, the charm of Antarctica has not only attracted the attention of Japan. Many countries, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, have also set up their own science camps on this ice and snow continent. ** These scientific research bases not only provide valuable research platforms for scientists, but are also key pawns for countries to compete for Antarctic sovereignty and resources.

南极洲，这片被誉为“Earth's last pure land”，各国的科学研究活动在这片神秘的冰雪大陆上展开，为全球科学事业注入了新的活力。

Although Antarctica's environmental conditions are extremely harsh, its severe cold climate and rich ice and snow cover make it a very challenging scientific research site, it is this extreme environment that creates Antarctica's unique scientific resources and potential mineral treasures.

Countries have quietly become involved in the competition for this land, and on the front line of this competition, scientific research is clearly the most powerful tactic.

Only through in-depth scientific exploration can we more comprehensively understand and protect this mysterious field so that it can continue to contribute to the vigorous development of human science.

Patriotic, let's be together!
