Observation deck at Destination Alpha (DA). Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. It is from here that many watch the last plane of the summer depart, leaving us winter-overs all alone at the most remote place on the planet.
View from the second level of the station looking toward the cargo buildings and supply berms. The tank in the foreground is attached to the Emergency Fueling Module (EFM) and will power the emergency generators if they are needed during the winter.
