Down in Antarctica, November marks the end of spring, the beginning of austral summer, and the beginning of Antarctica's cruise season. The Sun just rose for the first time in 6 months on September 22nd, and is now visible in the sky all the time. Recent studies in Antarctica have brought new insights into the origins of deep sea octopus species (a 30 million-year-old ancestor from Antarctic waters), volcanic contributions to disappearing antarctic ice, and the effects of increasing numbers of icebergs scouring the seafloor. Collected here are 32 photographs of Antarctica from the past several years. (32 photos total)
在南极洲，11月意味着春天结束，夏天到来，这是一年中最好的游览季节。从9月22日太阳第一次升起，现在完全进入了没有夜晚的时期。以下32张图片，是几年来最能显示了南极洲旖旎壮美风光的图片集合。

After waiting for over two weeks for his mate to return from the sea and relieve him of nest duty, this Adelie penguin's hunger helps him make the decision to abandon his egg in search of fish and krill in the sea. Photo taken December 12, 2002. Known populations of the Adelie penguin have dropped by 65% over the past 25 years. (Melanie Conner/National Science Foundation)
两周的等待，在其同伴仍未回来接班，这只阿德利企鹅决定放弃孵蛋而到海中寻找鱼虾食物。过去25年来，阿德利企鹅数量减少了65%。

Palmer Station seen from the ocean on June 10, 2006. Palmer Station is the smallest of the three U.S. Antarctic Program research stations, located on Anvers Island, near the Antarctic Peninsula. (Glenn E. Grant/National Science Foundation) #
帕尔默站（Palmer）为美国设在南极的考察站，是美国三个考察站中最小的一个。该站以美国南极探险家、“英雄”号船长纳撒尼尔·帕尔默（1799~1877）的姓氏命名，位于昂韦尔岛上，地理坐标为64°46′S、64°05′W，1965年2月25日建站。帕尔默站主要对海洋生物进行研究，站内设有无线电通讯设备，设有网络监测地震，大气和紫外线辐射的设备。其他的研究也以物理海洋学，海洋地质学和海洋生物学为主

The aurora australis over the Dark Sector at Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station on June 3, 2008. The Dark Sector is so-named due to the absence of light and radio wave interfence. The bright spot above the ground shield in the foreground is Jupiter. The white streaks of light going up are the Milky Way. (Keith Vanderlinde/National Science Foundation)

Nacreous clouds near McMurdo, Ross Island, Antarctica on August 28, 2004. These polar stratospheric clouds at 80,000 feet are the highest of all clouds. They only occur in the polar regions when the stratospheric temperature dips below 100 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. They are also the site of chemical reactions that break down ozone in the upper atmosphere and contribute to the creation of the ozone hole above Antarctica.

The Commonwealth Glacier in the Transantarctic Mountains, seen on February 4, 2007. The glacier was named by the British Antarctic Expedition led by Robert Falcon Scott (1910-1913) after the Commonwealth of Australia. This glacier flows in a southeasterly direction, west of Mount Coleman, in Victoria Land. (Mike Embree/National Science Foundation) #
横贯山脉(the Transantarctic Mountains)共同体冰川(The Commonwealth Glacier)。该冰川由Robert Falcon Scott领导的英国南极探险队命名 (1910-1913)。

巨大冰山B-15A的北部边缘。B-15A冰山正漂浮于南极麦克默多海峡之中。B-15A冰山是2000年11月从南极罗斯冰架之上分离出来的。总面积相当于卢森堡国土面积的B-15A冰山近日发生解体崩裂后，在冰山原来的位置上出现了3座新的冰山。长期负责观测B-15A冰山的有关科学家介绍说，这座冰山解体后已经改变了南极地区的地形地貌，随后还将对南极的气候变化产生影响。据悉，解体崩裂而形成的3座新冰山的体积仍然十分庞大，其中体形最大的一座长度达到75公里。

A full moon and 25 second exposure allowed sufficient light into this photo taken at Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station during the long Antarctic night in July of 2005. The new station can be seen at far left, power plant in the center and the old mechanic's garage in the lower right. Red lights are used outside during the winter darkness as their spectrum does not pollute the sky, allowing scientists to conduct astrophysical studies without artificial light interference. The green light in the sky is the aurora australis. (Chris Danals/National Science Foundation) #
阿蒙森-斯科特南极站(Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station)，2005年7月的满月夜25秒长时间曝光拍摄。最左边是新建的站，中间是配电厂，右边是旧的机械库。冬季室外使用红光因为它的光谱不会污染天空，以便科学家在没有人造光线的干扰下研究天体。天空中绿色的光线是极光。
