Antarctica

What happens here affects us all

It is a land of mystery, yet what happens here affects everyone. With never-before-seen footage, Antarctica brings us to the farthest reaches of this wild and majestic continent. It is the coldest, driest and windiest place on Earth, with the roughest oceans and yet, wonderful creatures thrive here in astounding abundance. 

Dive beneath sea ice, more than six feet thick, to experience the alien world of its seafloor—thousands of purple starfish scuttling to escape being entrapped by growing ice and elaborate jellyfish dancing a deadly dance. Swim alongside playful seals, soar above mountain peaks and vast penguin colonies, and witness the largest congregation of fin and humpback whales ever filmed.

A penguin and leopard seal face off. Both are open mouthed screaming at the other. The penguin is standing on ice and the seal is popped up over the edge of the ice with it's head.
Underwater, with ice above, a cluster of pink and purple sea stars rest on the rocky bottom of the ocean. A large white spider-like crab climbs over the sea stars.
