The Antartic flag is none country specific.
The British Government are preparing to vacate their old antartic base,Halley five,so a brand new one,Halley Six is being built here in Cape Town,this was designed in the UK,the internal modular componants being made there but the actual structures and the GRP exterior cladding was made here,trial assembled,then taken apart prior to shipping to the new base camp site.
Halley six will be different to any other base,its on hydraulic legs which can lift the structure high up and above the snow,the idea is they are aerodynamic and the snow will pass underneath.The ice shelf they will set up on moves and over a period of ten years or so ends up at the edge of the ocean,so Halley Six is built on skids and as each unit can be disconnected,they can pull them on their skids to a new location further inshore,then link up with the others and life can continue.CKD Boats have supplied Fluid Film samples to apply to those skids and also to the Skidoos snow tracks,Fluid Film will stay liquid and work as a lubricant down to minus sixty degrees (-60) we will report on our sucess with Fluid Film at the Halley Six base as the info comes in.
Some marine type uses,its also very good for Snow Plow blade application,stopping the snow and ice from building up,which then requires manual removal.
