The Continent of Antarctica || আন্টার্টিকা মহাদেশ || 4K Videos ||#MyPlanetBD #Suvoislam
Antarctica (/ænˈtɑːrtɪkə/ or /ænˈtɑːrktɪkə/ (About this soundlisten))[note 1] is Earth's southernmost continent. It contains the geographic South Pole and is situated in the Antarctic region of the Southern Hemisphere, almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle, and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. At 14,200,000 square kilometres (5,500,000 square miles), it is the fifth-largest continent and nearly twice the size of Australia. It is by far the least populated continent, with around 5,000 people in the summer and around 1,000 in the winter. About 98% of Antarctica is covered by ice that averages 1.9 km (1.2 mi; 6,200 ft) in thickness,[5] which extends to all but the McMurdo Dry Valleys and the northernmost reaches of the Antarctic Peninsula.[6]

Spetsnaz GRU - The Deadliest Russian Special Forces
Spetsnaz GRU is the special forces or spetsnaz of the G.U., the foreign military intelligence agency of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The Spetsnaz GRU was formed in 1949, the first special force in the Soviet Union, as the military force of the Main Intelligence Directorate, the foreign military intelligence agency of the Soviet Armed Forces. The force was designed in the context of the Cold War to carry out reconnaissance and sabotage against enemy targets in the form of special reconnaissance and direct action attacks. The Spetsnaz GRU inspired additional spetsnaz forces attached to other Soviet intelligence agencies, such as the Vympel and Alpha Group of the KGB.

КОГДА ОТКРЫЛИ АНТАРКТИДУ ? #shorts #рекомендации (Открытие Антарктиды)
Последним неоткрытым материком до начала 19 века оставалась Антарктида. 28 января 1820 года русская экспедиция под руководством Беллингаузена и Лазарева на шлюпках "Восток" и "Мирный" подошли к шельфовому леднику. Через два дня уже британская экспедиция по командованием Брансфилда достигла Антарктиды.

Inuit Cannibalism vs. English Cannibalism in the Arctic Circle, Franklin Expedition & Oral Tradition
Without the oral tradition of the Inuit, the wreckage of the lost Franklin Expedition would never have been found.
Leaving England in the summer of 1845, the expedition was searching for the Northwest passage to the orient. They did not ask any help from the Inuit, but the Eskimos were watching.
The Franklin Expedition consisted of two sturdy ships, the Erebus, and the Terror. They brought enough food to last more than a year, for they rightly expected to be ice-bound for the winter. The summer that followed, according to the ice core record, was the coldest summer in 700 years. The ice did not break, and the ships were forced to spend another winter, in place.
Knowing their supplies would not last until spring, except for the few men not able, or willing, to travel, the Frank...

Antarctica (/ænˈtɑːrtɪkə/ or /ænˈtɑːrktɪkə/ (About this soundlisten))[note 1] is Earth's southernmost continent. It contains the geographic South Pole and is situated in the Antarctic region of the Southern Hemisphere, almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle, and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. At 14,200,000 square kilometres (5,500,000 square miles), it is the fifth-largest continent and nearly twice the size of Australia. It is by far the least populated continent, with around 5,000 people in the summer and around 1,000 in the winter. About 98% of Antarctica is covered by ice that averages 1.9 km (1.2 mi; 6,200 ft) in thickness,[5] which extends to all but the McMurdo Dry Valleys and the northernmost reaches of the Antarctic Peninsula.[6]
Antarctica, on average, is the coldest, driest, and windiest continent, and has the highest average elevation of all the continents.[7] Most of Antarctica is a polar desert, with annual precipitation of 200 mm (7.9 in) along the coast and far less inland; yet 80% of the world freshwater reserves are stored there, enough to raise global sea levels by about 60 metres (200 ft) if all of it were to melt.[8][6] The temperature in Antarctica has dropped to −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F) (or even −94.7 °C (−135.8 °F) as measured from space),[9] though the average for the third quarter (the coldest part of the year) is −63 °C (−81 °F). Organisms native to Antarctica include many types of algae, bacteria, fungi, plants, protista, and certain animals, such as mites, nematodes, penguins, seals and tardigrades. Vegetation, where it occurs, is tundra.
Antarctica was the last region on Earth to be discovered, likely unseen until 1820 when the Russian expedition of Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen and Mikhail Lazarev on Vostok and Mirny sighted the Fimbul ice shelf. The continent remained largely neglected for the rest of the 19th century because of its harsh environment, lack of easily accessible resources, and isolation. In January 1840, land at Antarctica was discovered for the first time, almost simultaneously, by the United States Exploring Expedition, under Lieut; Charles Wilkes; and a separate French expedition under Jules Dumont d'Urville. The latter made a temporary landing. The Wilkes expedition—though it did not make a landing—remained long enough in the region to survey and map some 800 miles of the continent. The first confirmed landing was by a team of Norwegians in 1895.
Antarctica is governed by parties to the Antarctic Treaty System. Twelve countries signed the Antarctic Treaty in 1959, and thirty-eight have signed it since then. The treaty prohibits military activities, mineral mining, nuclear explosions and nuclear waste disposal. It supports scientific research and protects the continent's ecology. Between 1,000 and 5,000 people from many countries reside at research stations scattered across the continent.
The name Antarctica is the romanised version of the Greek compound word ἀνταρκτική (antarktiké), feminine of ἀνταρκτικός (antarktikós),[10] meaning "opposite to the Arctic", "opposite to the north".[11][12]
Aristotle wrote in his book Meteorology about an Antarctic region in c. 350 BC.[13] Marinus of Tyre reportedly used the name in his unpreserved world map from the 2nd century CE.[14] The Roman authors Hyginus and Apuleius (1–2 centuries CE) used for the South Pole the romanised Greek name polus antarcticus,[15][16] from which derived the Old French pole antartike (modern pôle antarctique) attested in 1270, and from there the Middle English pol antartik in a 1391 technical treatise by Geoffrey Chaucer, A Treatise on the Astrolabe, referring to the modern Antarctic Pole.[17]
The long-imagined (but undiscovered) south polar continent was originally called Terra Australis, sometimes shortened to Australia as seen in a woodcut illustration titled "Sphere of the winds", contained in an astrological textbook published in Frankfurt in 1545.[18]
In the early 19th century, the colonial authorities in Sydney removed the Dutch name from New Holland. Instead of inventing a new name to replace it, they took the name Australia from the south polar continent, leaving it nameless for some eighty years. During that period, geographers had to make do with clumsy phrases such as "the Antarctic Continent". They searched for a more poetic replacement, suggesting various names such as Ultima and Antipodea.[19] Eventually Antarctica was adopted as the continental name in the 1890s—the first use of the name is attributed to the Scottish cartographer John George Bartholomew.[20]
The First Russian Antarctic Expedition led by Bellingshausen and Mikhail Lazarev on the 985-ton sloop-of-war Vostok ("East") and the 530-ton support vessel Mirny ("Peaceful") reached a point within 32 km (20 mi) of Queen Maud's Land and recorded the sight of an ice shelf at 69°21′28″S 2°14′50″W,[35] on 27 January 1820,[36] which became known as the Fimbul ice shelf.

Последним неоткрытым материком до начала 19 века оставалась Антарктида. 28 января 1820 года русская экспедиция под руководством Беллингаузена и Лазарева на шлюпках "Восток" и "Мирный" подошли к шельфовому леднику. Через два дня уже британская экспедиция по командованием Брансфилда достигла Антарктиды.

Inuit Cannibalism vs. English Cannibalism in the Arctic Circle, Franklin Expedition & Oral Tradition

Without the oral tradition of the Inuit, the wreckage of the lost Franklin Expedition would never have been found.
Leaving England in the summer of 1845, the expedition was searching for the Northwest passage to the orient. They did not ask any help from the Inuit, but the Eskimos were watching.
The Franklin Expedition consisted of two sturdy ships, the Erebus, and the Terror. They brought enough food to last more than a year, for they rightly expected to be ice-bound for the winter. The summer that followed, according to the ice core record, was the coldest summer in 700 years. The ice did not break, and the ships were forced to spend another winter, in place.
Knowing their supplies would not last until spring, except for the few men not able, or willing, to travel, the Franklin Expedition constructed heavy sleds to carry remaining supplies, and headed south. The desperate party was seen en route, and the crew had been reduced to cannibalism.
The ice opened up, and the Erebus drifted south, with the handful of men that remained behind. They were too weak to raise the sails. The ship came to rest in a backwater between islands. The following winter, when the ice provided a path, the Inuit investigated, finding no one inside alive.
In 2014, the white man finally decided to listen to the Inuit. That's when the wreck of the Erebus was found, in water only 36 feet deep.
The Inuit have two oral traditions. One passes down actual history, the other, their mythical folklore. Because of harsh arctic conditons, the historical knowledge of the land around them was transmitted very accurately, as this was essential for survival.
Their folklore also reflects the harsh environment. Consider the tale of Torngashuak, whose boy had gone out in his kayak, and had not returned. So the father set out in his own kayak, to search for his son, and to speak with others who might have seen him.
Beside a great glacier he met a giant, who offered him a drum, with which to call his son. But when he saw the head of the drum was made of human skin, he knew the giant was a man-eater, and Torngashuak rowed away.
Torngashuak saw a big man on land, so he rowed ashore. "I think I know where your son has gone," said the big man, and he led the father to the edge of a ravine. When Torngashuak looked down into the chasm, he saw the broken kayaks, of those travelers the big man had eaten in the past. The man-eater tried to push him over the precipice, but he grabbed the big man's jacket, and cast him down instead.
Torngasoak met an old woman, who offered to dry his boots. But when the old woman hung his boots up higher than he could reach, he realized she was a man-eater. "Now they have dried enough," he insisted, and she gave back the boots. When he ran away, she gave chase. But she fell down, and her knife was broken.
Torngasoak met a strange man on the shore. The man boasted about his new animal skin, which was stretched out to dry. Then he saw the stranger's kayak. He knew at once, it was his son's kayak, and the skin, had most likely been taken from his son. He trampled that man-eater to death, so heavily that all his bones were crushed.
Only then did Torngasoak feel able about to return home.
