Cape Hallett

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cape Hallett was the location of a scientific base in Antarctica. It was established as a joint base between the United States and New Zealand during the International Geophysical Year of 1957 and manned permanently until 1964, when there was a major fire. It was then used as a summer only base until 1973. The site has since been restored, with the final work taking place in the summer of 2005/2006.
