South Pole Dome
Posted Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 7:54 PM

I am curious as to what members think about efforts to preserve the geodesic dome from South Pole station that is due for demolition this year. Would it be worthwhile for the Antarctican Society to get involved? Would it even be worthwhile to help preserve the dome and reestablish it some place stateside? Anybody have any thoughts on the matter?

Charles:

I was fortunate enough to winterover under the Dome almost 30 years ago. My memories are still strong, and I expect that I am not the only one. I would love to see the Dome find a home back in the States and perhaps shelter an exhibit on the South Pole experience. To that end, I am willing to write letters of support and contribute funds if that is necessary. Count me in.
