About PNRA
The Italian National Antarctic Research Program (PNRA) began in 1985 with the objective of ensuring the participation of Italy to the Antarctic Treaty and the development of scientific research in the Antarctic continent. Since then, every year, there were scientific expeditions, the results of which have brought our country to the level of the most important nations. This has led to the creation of a coastal station open during the southern summer, and - in conjunction with the French program - a permanent station on the plateau, operational in the summer and winter. The mission has also developed various technologies, such as telecommunications and automation needed to further their research. The Italian National Research Council (CNR) is the scientific coordinator of PNRA, while ENEA has in charge the logistics and the implementation of PNRA.
