Well, here I am at my first visit to Scott Base. Scott Base is the New Zealand research facility only with much less personnel. They will max out at around 85 folks compared to our 1,200 folks. I formally visit them 1-2 times a week. You may only go to Scott Base by invitation only. Their building are all under one roof and so when you are inside you take off your shoes and wear slippers throughout the facility. Check those shoes at the door or don't get invited back!
