That last sentence is golden
I have first hand experience of the smell, I was told this by a scientist on our way to Antarctica.
Here's the research paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.00926
Just to put the smell in perspective….
Is it worse than a sack of spoiling potatoes?
I've never smelled bad potatoes, but penguins eat mostly krill so just imagine tons of fishy poop
It’s not a smell I can really recommend, let’s just say it’s the most, uh, memorable smell I’ve smelled.
(Specifically cleaning dormitories over summer. Someone left a sack. Ac was turned off.)
im fascinated by the fact that some people actually go to Antarctica
you don't have to shout, we hear you well enough
