Each January first, the position of 90 degrees South is determined and marked with a large marker of a unique design. And each year, day by day, the marker is carried away by the movement of the glacial ice cap. This year's medallion is inspired by a three dimensional marker fabricated in brass featuring a two-sided disk with engraved photos of the Amundsen and Scott expeditions. The disk is in the center of multiple orbs.
