Antarctica is Important for Many Things.

On the flight back from Antarctica to Chile, I spoke with a scientist from Spain.  His job is to find rocks from Mars for study. "Why do you look for rocks from other planets here, I asked?"   He replies, "They may fall elsewhere on earth, but It's easier to see them here!"


I found this link -Meteorites found in Antarctica and Australia make scientists believe that the building blocks of DNA exist in space.  My conclusion: Antarctica is important for many things!
