Recently, the polar scientific investigation icebreaker "Xuelong" successfully completed the restoration and renovation project, and the "heart" part of the ship's power system and environmental protection system has been renewed. After the restoration and renovation project was completed, it arrived at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Wharf. The 30th Antarctic Scientific Expedition Team of China assembled on the "Xuelong", and it was ready to be launched. It was preparing for the 30th Antarctic expedition and carried out the Antarctic navigation mission.

According to Qu Tanzhou, director of the Polar Expedition Office of the State Oceanic Administration of China, the expedition team consisted of 256 people and performed a total of 30 scientific investigation tasks and 15 logistics support and engineering construction projects. Among them, the establishment of China's Antarctic Taishan Station was the top priority of this investigation. In addition, during this investigation, the "Snow Dragon" polar scientific research ship will also perform the mission of sailing around the South Pole for the first time.

Polar scientific research has great scientific research significance and is a reflection of a country's comprehensive national strength and technological level. China has successfully organized 29 Antarctic scientific expeditions, and has accumulated a certain amount of scientific accumulation in the polar sciences such as atmosphere, ocean, glacier, biology, space physics, etc. Since the Antarctic scientific investigation was carried out in 1984, China has established the Great Wall in Antarctica Three scientific investigation stations, Zhongshan Station and Kunlun Station. The upcoming Taishan Station is located in Princess Elizabeth between Zhongshan Station and Kunlun Station. It is about 520 kilometers away from Zhongshan Station and has an altitude of about 2621 meters above sea level. It is a summer station for inland investigation of Antarctica. It will not only become the science of Kunlun Station in China. The frontier support of the investigation will also become an important support platform for the Antarctic Grove Mountain investigation, further expanding the scope and scope of the Chinese Antarctic investigation.
