015.28 Antartica by Andy Linton In February 92, NZ Telecom will have a satellite connection available to Scott Base in the Ross Dependency offering data circuits of up to 64 Kbits/sec in the first year of operation and 2 Mbits/sec thereafter. Preliminary enquiries in New Zealand show that an Internet link to Scott Base would be useful to researchers and that there are no technical reasons why the link could not be operational in February before the end of the summer season. This link could be made available to researchers at the American and Italian bases in the area relatively easily. Work on funding the link will continue and we hope to report positive progress soon.
