Summary

Description

English: The symbols have the following meaning: "Horizontal stripes of navy and white represent the long days and nights at Antarctica's extreme latitude. In the center, a lone white peak erupts from a field of snow and ice, echoing those of the bergs, mountains, and pressure ridges that define the Antarctic horizon. The long shadow it casts forms the unmistakable shape of a compass arrow pointed south, an homage to the continent's legacy of exploration. Together, the two center shapes create a diamond, symbolizing the hope that Antarctica will continue to be a center of peace, discovery, and cooperation for generations to come."

Español: Los símbolos tienen el siguiente significado: "Las franjas horizontales de azul marino y blanco representan los largos días y noches en la latitud extrema de la Antártida. En el centro, un pico blanco solitario surge de un campo de nieve y hielo, haciendo eco de los de los témpanos, las montañas, y crestas de presión que definen el horizonte antártico. La larga sombra que proyecta forma la inconfundible forma de una flecha de brújula apuntando hacia el sur, un homenaje al legado de exploración del continente. Juntas, las dos formas centrales crean un diamante, que simboliza la esperanza de que la Antártida continuará siendo un centro de paz, descubrimiento y cooperación para las generaciones venideras ".

Français : Les symboles ont la signification suivante: "Les bandes horizontales bleu marine et blanc représentent les longs jours et nuits à l'extrême latitude de l'Antarctique. Au centre, un seul pic blanc surgit d'un champ de neige et de glace, faisant écho à ceux des bergs, des montagnes, et des crêtes de pression qui définissent l'horizon antarctique. La longue ombre qu'il projette forme la forme incomparable d'une flèche de boussole pointée vers le sud, un hommage à l'héritage d'exploration du continent. Ensemble, les deux formes centrales créent un diamant, symbolisant l'espoir que l'Antarctique continuer à être un centre de paix, de découverte et de coopération pour les générations à venir. "

Deutsch: Die Symbole haben die folgende Bedeutung: "Horizontale Streifen in Marine und Weiß repräsentieren die langen Tage und Nächte in der extremen Breite der Antarktis. In der Mitte bricht ein einsamer weißer Gipfel aus einem Feld aus Schnee und Eis hervor und erinnert an die Berge, Berge, und Druckkämme, die den antarktischen Horizont definieren. Der lange Schatten, den er wirft, bildet die unverkennbare Form eines nach Süden gerichteten Kompasspfeils, eine Hommage an das Erbe der Erforschung des Kontinents. Zusammen bilden die beiden zentralen Formen einen Diamanten, der die Hoffnung symbolisiert, dass die Antarktis dies tun wird weiterhin ein Zentrum des Friedens, der Entdeckung und der Zusammenarbeit für kommende Generationen. "

Italiano: I simboli hanno il seguente significato: "Le strisce orizzontali blu scuro e bianche rappresentano i lunghi giorni e le notti all'estrema latitudine dell'Antartide. Al centro, un picco bianco solitario erutta da un campo di neve e ghiaccio, facendo eco a quelli dei berg, montagne, e creste di pressione che definiscono l'orizzonte antartico. La lunga ombra che proietta forma l'inconfondibile forma di una freccia della bussola puntata a sud, un omaggio all'eredità di esplorazione del continente. Insieme, le due forme centrali creano un diamante, che simboleggia la speranza che l'Antartide continuare a essere un centro di pace, scoperta e cooperazione per le generazioni a venire ".

한국어: 기호는 다음과 같은 의미를 갖습니다. "남극 대륙의 극한 위도에서 긴 낮과 밤을 나타내는 남색과 흰색의 가로 줄무늬. 중앙에는 눈과 얼음의 들판에서 고독한 흰색 봉우리가 솟아 오르며 산, 산, 남극의 수평선을 정의하는 압력 능선. 긴 그림자는 남극을 향한 나침반 화살표의 틀림없는 모양을 형성하고 대륙의 탐험 유산에 대한 경의를 표합니다. 두 개의 중앙 모양이 함께 다이아몬드를 만들어 남극 대륙의 희망을 상징합니다. 앞으로도 계속해서 평화, 발견, 협력의 중심지가 될 것입니다. "
