Seeing an iceberg for the first time may arguably be the experience of a lifetime. As the white flecks begin to appear, you cannot stop yourself from reaching for your camera.

It was difficult to know exactly what to expect at Rothera, but it still came as a surprise to find the former, very influential, BBC weatherman, David Lee here. He receives images from the weather satellites that pass overhead and combines these with air pressure system diagrams to come up with weather forecasts [4].

The journey south would be better by boat of course. In the aircraft cabin we cannot feel the chill wind [1]. However, as we approach we hear a shrill bell from the cockpit followed by the announcement: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Antarctica."

Rothera is a fully active research base, and it is also a staging post for field parties carrying out research in the heart of the continent. Of the very few people who have visited the continent, most have never made it as far south as our present position [5].

We are on the way to the scientific research station at Rothera. The base is on an island on the western side of the Antarctic peninsula [2]. It is almost on the edge of a massive floating ice sheet, and every year it slides closer to the open water. As the aircraft bursts through the clouds, it feels as if we are somehow intruding.

The scientists and support workers here live in a very hostile environment [6]. Soon this base will have to be rebuilt before the ice it rests on breaks away from the main continent. Perhaps then the ice will form an iceberg, drifting north to welcome someone else to the spectacular, hostile white continent that is Antarctica.

Our arrival at the research base comes as a shock. The metal prefabricated buildings on the slopes are a triumph of substance over style. The summer research season is in full swing when we arrive. Scientists with impressive qualifications live alongside the carpenters, electricians and mechanics [3]. The base's medical facilities are a fair size and the resident doctor has an office which can be converted into an operating theatre.

Мы направляемся к научно-исследовательской станции Ротера. База расположена на острове в западной части Антарктического полуострова [2]. Она находится почти на краю массивного плавучего ледяного щита, и каждый год он сдвигается ближе к открытой воде. Когда самолет прорывается сквозь облака, кажется, что мы каким-то образом вторгаемся.

Наше прибытие на исследовательскую базу становится шоком. Металлические сборные здания на склонах — это торжество содержания над стилем. Летний исследовательский сезон в полном разгаре, когда мы прибываем. Ученые с внушительной квалификацией живут бок о бок с плотниками, электриками и механиками [3]. Медицинские учреждения базы достаточно большие, а местный врач имеет кабинет, который может быть преобразован в операционную.

Ученые и вспомогательный персонал здесь живут в очень суровых условиях [6]. Скоро эту базу придется перестроить до того, как лед, на котором она стоит, отколется от основного континента. Возможно, тогда этот лед образует айсберг, дрейфующий на север, чтобы поприветствовать кого-то еще на этом зрелищном, негостеприимном белом континенте, которым является Антарктида.
