Seems neither Man nor Woman has step foot here in what they call Ridge A, it's 13,297 above sea level. The Antarctic Plateau is a site for a new astronomical observation post. Pictures taken there are going to be 3 times sharper than any where else in the world. Researchers say that a telescope at this site could take images almost as good as those from the Hubble telescope. All this is taking place on the continent at the bottom of the world.
