Antarctica Researcher Cooks Outdoors

These incredible photos of an Antarctica researcher cooking outdoors will truly make you appreciate your cozy warm home!

Highly adaptable with a good sense of humor glaciologist and astrobiologist Cyprien Verseux is spreading some smiles to the world by showcasing just how cold it is by cooking outside in the extreme environment.

Cyprien and his fellow small team of 13 including scientists, technicians, a cook, and a doctor live alone at the base in the depths of an Antarctic winter where even bacteria cannot survive.

It is the coldest area on Earth, with temperatures reaching below -80°C in winter!

“Nine months a year, during the winter, it cannot be left or reached,” Cyprien told Bored Panda.

“It is so cold that vehicles can’t come and go. We are currently 13 people: technicians, scientists, a cook, and a medical doctor. “We run out of fresh food early in the winter (as we have no resupply from early February to early November), so we eat mostly frozen food: given that the temperatures never are in the positive, we just store it in containers outside.”
