NASA's latest satellite imagery reveals an Antarctic island with a skull-like appearance, featuring a rocky 'eye socket,' per Times of India.

The Antarctic Commission failed again to approve new marine protected areas following talks in Hobart, Market Herald reports.

Environmental groups and oceanographers warn that uncontrolled krill fishing threatens Antarctic wildlife, as governments debate quotas, WWF Australia notes.

Meanwhile, Silversea has launched its 2026-2027 Antarctica season with a new expedition hotel, CruiseMapper reports.
