THE LONG LOOK AHEAD.

The article presents the author's discussion regarding the two new thrusts for science in the future, first scientists must learn to participate in the solution of problems and second, scientists must help to demonstrate the value of international science. He states that predicting the future of Antarctica, a region primarily dedicated to science, might seem to be mainly a task of extending the existing patterns, but the world consists of the sum of all its parts. He stresses that it should not be assumed that even remote areas such as Antarctica do not or should not play some part in the shaping of the future of mankind.
