Postage stamps and postal history of the British Antarctic Territory
The British Antarctic Territory (BAT) is a sector of Antarctica claimed by the United Kingdom as one of its 14 British Overseas Territories. It comprises the region south of 60°S latitude and between longitudes and , forming a wedge shape that extends to the South Pole. The Territory was formed on 3 March 1962,〔http://www.fco.gov.uk/en/travel-and-living-abroad/travel-advice-by-country/country-profile/south-america/british-antarctic-territory/?profile=all Retrieved 6 March 2010.〕 although the UK's claim to this portion of the Antarctic dates back to Letters Patent of 1908 and 1917. The area now covered by the Territory includes three regions which, before 1962, were administered by the British as separate dependencies of the Falkland Islands: Graham Land, the South Orkney Islands, and the South Shetland Islands.
== Bases ==
There are a number of current and former bases in the territory:
* Halley
* Rothera
*Signy was operated from 1947 until 1996 and now is only staffed in the summer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Signy Research Station )
*Two summer-only forward operating stations, at Fossil Bluff and Sky Blu.
*Faraday was maintained until 1996, when it was sold to Ukraine and renamed Akademik Vernadsky Station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Faraday Station - History )
*Port Lockroy on Goudier Island is a tourist centre operated by the UK Antarctic Heritage Trust.
Mail is found from all of these bases, although most of it is philatelic in nature.
