Now just visualizing that alone would be priceless
Recognizing that it is in the interest of all mankind that Antarctica shall continue forever to be used exclusively for peaceful purposes and shall not become the scene or object of international discord;
4. Aerial observation may be carried out at any time over any or all areas of Antarctica by any of the Contracting Parties having the right to designate observers. 5. Each Contracting Party shall, at the time when the present Treaty enters into force for it, inform the other Contracting Parties, and thereafter shall give them notice in advance, of (a) all expeditions to and within Antarctica, on the part of its ships of nationals, and all expeditions to Antarctica organized in or proceeding from its territory; (b) all stations in Antarctica occupied by its nationals; and (c) any military personnel or equipment intended to be introduced by it into Antarctica subject to the conditions prescribed in paragraph 2 of Article I of the present Treaty.
The law is as vague as can be but I guarentee you, if you just sailed your personal shil there and started wandering around, you would be in a militarization zone, you would be questioned and sent back unless not on an authorized chaperoned expedition
1. Antarctica shall be used for peaceful purposes only. There shall be prohibited, inter alia, any measures of a military nature, such as the establishment of military bases and fortifications, the carrying out of military maneuvers, as well as the testing of any type of weapons.
So, what are you doing on this thread?
I'm not saying it is flat,
I want proof, not just words by government.

Then book a trip. If you don't, then shut up because apparently that is the only "proof" you will accept when it comes to everything. Cozy little world you have there. Everything is a lie.
Pretty sure you won't believe this guy, because...well, because he's not you.

So you have only one choice. Enjoy your flat little world.
