Comandante Ferraz Antarctic Station

The seal celebrates the inauguration of the new Comandante Ferraz Antarctic Station, built by the Brazilian Navy. The photograph chosen to compose the seal brings an aerial image of the station, making it possible to capture, in addition to the natural landscape of the continent, all the modules and installations that comprise the structure of the new station. In the upper right corner we have the station’s logo and that is also the title of the broadcast. The techniques of photography and computer graphics were used.

The lower right stamp shows the signs of Virgo, Libra and Scorpio, whose rulers are Mercury, Venus and Pluto; and finally, the lower left seal unites the signs of Capricorn, Sagittarius and Aquarius, ruled by Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus. All stamps have an illustration and symbol for each sign, and in the center is Planet Earth. The digital illustration technique was used.
