Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station Live Web Cam 90° South The new South Pole complex under construction is a far cry from the original, which of course was Amunden's tent which he left for Scott to find and confirm the exact geographical South Pole. The only direction from here is North. Click live images for a larger view. |
Rothera Research Station Live Web Cam 67° 34'S: 68° 08'W The web cam at Rothera is sited on Rothera Point, looking roughly north towards the main buildings complex.

Halley Bay Live Web Cam 75 ° 35'S: 26 °39'W The web cam at Halley is known as the pig cam - because it is sited on the Piggot platform. It points north and during daylight hours and good weather, the Laws platform (the main building at Halley) can usually be seen. Bad weather and darkness (particularly during the austral winter) sometimes conspire to produce a rather uninspiring image but spectacular sunrises/sunsets can often be seen. It updates approximately once every hour. |
South Georgia Live Web Cam 54 °1 7'S: 36 ° 30'W The web cam at King Edward Point is situated in Larsen House. The view is south east across Cumberland Bay East to the Greene Peninsula and the mountains beyond. Dartmouth Point is in the middle ground and Susa Point in the foreground. The steps on the right lead into Larsen House. Tussac grass is growing immediately in front of the steps. From October to March elephant seals, penguins and fur seals will be on the beach in front of the web cam. |

RRS Ernest Shackleton Live Web Cam The web cam onboard the RRS Ernest Shackleton (callsign ZDLS1) is situated on the Bridge. It generally looks forward, but if something of particular interest is going on, it may be moved to look aft or to either side. Click here to track the RRS Ernest Shackleton. |
RRS James Clark Ross Live Web Cam The web cam onboard the RRS James Clark Ross (callsign ZDLP) is situated on the Bridge. It generally looks forward, but if something of particular interest is going on, it may be moved to look aft or to either side. The Radio Officers' onboard usually add a small blurb containing information about where the ship is and what it is doing. This is a particularly interesting web cam as (when not on long sea passages) the scenery changes regularly. Spectacular sunrises/sunsets, stunning Antarctic vistas and the occasional Southern Ocean storm can all be seen from this camera! It updates approximately once every hour during daylight hours.

Neumayer Station70° 39'S: 008°15'
In 1981, the first Georg von Neumayer Station in the Antarctic was established on the Ekstrom Ice Shelf as a research observatory for geophysical, meteorological and atmospheric chemistry measurements, as well as a logistics base for summer expeditions. Georg von Neumayer, whom the station is named after, was an important patron of Germany's research activities in Antarctica. Ice movements and heavy snow deposits demanded the construction of a new station building in the early 1990s. In March 1992, the new Neumayer station was completed only ten kilometers from the original site. The station's research and observation program has steadily expanded ever since and now includes monitoring of atmospheric ozone. |
