Ko Scott Base ki te Tiri o te Moana ki te Tonga

Ko Aotearoa me te moka whakarunga o Amerika ngā whenua rahi rawa e tūtata ana ki te Tiri o te Moana ki te Tonga. He peka a Aotearoa mō te hunga e kaingākau ana ki te Tiri o te Moana ki te Tonga, atu i te ‘heroic age’ o Shackleton me Scott, tae atu ki te Operation Deep Freeze o ngā Amerikana i tīmatahia i te tekau tau atu i 1950. Kei roto i te wāhanga whenua o Aotearoa, a Ross Dependency, te teihana pūtaiao a Scott Base e tū ana. Nō raro mai i te Antarctic Treaty ka taka mai tēnei wāhanga whenua ki a Aotearoa.
