British Antarctic Survey is a UK-based research services organization focused on polar science in Earth's frozen regions, including Antarctica and the Arctic. For more than six decades, BAS has supported field programs, data collection, and scientific inquiry in extreme environments, with the aim of understanding how changes in these regions affect the global system. Based in Cambridge, England, BAS serves the global scientific community and other stakeholders who rely on polar data to study climate, ecosystems, and geoscience. In early 2026, BAS completed the Discovery Building at Rothera Research Station, marking a major expansion of its largest Antarctic facility. The new building centralises field preparation, storage, offices, training, medical and welfare facilities under one roof to support ongoing research operations in extremely cold conditions.
