Greg Falxa's Ancient Antarctic Photo Album
Welcome. This page features some photos taken by
different folks around Antarctica. 1996-97 was my third year (austral summer
season) both at McMurdo Station as a communications (RF) technician with
Antarctic Support Associates, and then (January and February of 1997) at
Palmer
Station on the other side of the continent to help engineer the Live
From Antarctica-2 series. These are interactive broadcasts, with
scientists answering questions from students in classrooms around the US,
and the scientists talking about their work (live!). It has penguins,whales,
glaciers
and pretty scenery. Click
on the titles below for some previews of what's inside.
