Belgrano II is an Argentine research station in Antarctica. The nineteen residents are served by a Roman Catholic chapel built entirely of ice. The chapel is featured on the Worldwide Antarctic Program website.
The average temperature at the base hovers around 5 to 48 degrees below zero (Centigrade). Night and daylight both last for months. Research at the base centers on weather, studies of the atmospheric ozone layer, seismology, and magnetic field studies.
