But on the other end, this research centre does not receive any sun rays during the polar night. Sunlight is not able to make its way during that season and so it always remains dark throughout.

In the world record, it shows the lowest minimum temperature than in any other weather station. The station was set up by the Soviet Union in 1957, and it is a very fascinating and interesting place for research workers and scientists.
