	Visiting Tierra del Fuego- The Southernmost Point in the World (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Tierra del Fuego is an island separated from the continent by a strait that joins the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans.
		The southern limit of the island that separates it from the Fuegian channels and later from the Antarctic, is established by the Beagle Channel, named after the ship Darwin Charles Darwin used to study this region, and to sail around the planet between 1831 and 1836.
		One of the most valuable testimonies available today about the original inhabitants of the island is the dictionary of the rich Yamana language, written by the Protestant missionary Thomas Bridges who, together with his family, was the first white permanent inhabitant in the region.

		Times in Antarctica vary depending on the location of the research station and which country is operating the research station.
		The South Pole and the North Pole are the two locations in the world where all the lines of longitude meet.
		Since the base at the South Pole is maintained by the USA and since most flights to the South Pole leave from Christchurch, New Zealand, the time at the South Pole (Amundsen-Scott) is, for practical reasons, in the same time zone as New Zealand.
