you're closer to the sun on antarctica and don't have routine dust storms that cover the entire surface of the planet regularly, so solar panels will actually generate more goddamn power, yes, despite being at the poles
huh, that's pretty cool, thanks for giving me the stats i was too lazy to look up; i do know there's a tension here, the equator is the best place to set up shop, but the underground icewater that the colonists will need will most likely be at the poles, right?
well we currently don't have the technology to make sure that humans that step out of the earth's magnetosphere don't get irradiated to a crisp, so none of this will every happen within any near-future timeframe

Being able to breathe the air also seems important, so does not being anywhere from six months to two years away from help.
