Secrets of living in Antarctica

For thousands of years, people theorized about the existence of a giant continent smack-dab on the bottom of the Earth, but it wasn't until the last few centuries that Antarctica was truly discovered. Now, while the Arctic Circle is also a pretty chill place, it's still accessible enough that many people throughout history have made a life there. Not so in Antarctica, a frozen landmass with no native human population, where the only creatures that could ever truly feel at home are penguins, orcas, Elder Things, or that shape-shifting alien monster that John Carpenter called "the Thing."
Despite being the coldest and most brutal environment on the planet, a surprisingly large number of human beings have managed to "live" in Antarctica. The increasing dangers of climate change have made studies in Antarctica increasingly important, so the majority of these "Antarcticans" are scientists, but not all of them. Though Antarctica has no native government, it does have schools, athletic competitions, and an annual rock concert.
