I added a link to the right side of the home page that will take you to the United States Antarctic Program website where you can see live webcams for a few of the U.S. bases on the continent. We are at McMurdo Station.
In the cam for McMurdo you can see several buildings. The large blue one on the right is where the galley is as well as several offices and some dorms. That building is roughly in the center of "town". The smaller building, with the red roof, just above the galley is the medical building and the one directly above that is the fire department. The tan building to the right of the fire department is Crary Lab, the main location of the scientific labs used for research here at McMurdo. The hill at the top of the cam is Observation Hill, the top of which is where the other webcam on base is located.
There are currently 746 people on base (29% women/71% men), with a few more hundred expected to arrive over the next couple weeks.
