Trepassey Island (Trepassey Island)
Trepassey Island (-68.2°N, -66.98333°W) is a small rocky island 0.6 nautical miles (1.1 km) southeast of Stonington Island in Neny Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land. Several islands were roughly charted in the area by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE), 1934–1937, and by the United States Antarctic Service (USAS), 1939–1941. They were surveyed in 1947 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) and named for the M.V. Trepassey, ship used by the FIDS in establishing a base on Stonington Island in 1946.

Country - Antarctica
Antarctica is Earth's southernmost and least-populated continent. Situated almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle and surrounded by the Southern Ocean (also known as the Antarctic Ocean), it contains the geographic South Pole. Antarctica is the fifth-largest continent, being about 40% larger than Europe, and has an area of 14200000 km2. Most of Antarctica is covered by the Antarctic ice sheet, with an average thickness of 1.9 km.

Antarctica is, on average, the coldest, driest, and windiest of the continents, and it has the highest average elevation. It is mainly a polar desert, with annual precipitation of over 200 mm along the coast and far less inland. About 70% of the world's freshwater reserves are frozen in Antarctica, which, if melted, would raise global sea levels by almost 60 m. Antarctica holds the record for the lowest measured temperature on Earth, −89.2 C. The coastal regions can reach temperatures over 10 C in summer. Native species of animals include mites, nematodes, penguins, seals and tardigrades. Where vegetation occurs, it is mostly in the form of lichen or moss.
