Cruzen, with Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd designated officer in charge of the scientific elements. The mission was officially titled the United States Navy Antarctic Developments Program, 1946–1947. Unofficially, everyone called it Operation Highjump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eThe stated objectives were military training and aerial mapping. The task force completed 28 photographic flights from the R4D-5L aircraft alone, capturing more than 21,000 images. Total photography exceeded 70,000 frames and covered over 1.5 million square miles of territory before an early Antarctic winter forced withdrawal in late February 1947.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eThen came the treaty. On December 1, 1959, twelve nations signed the Antarctic Treaty in Washington. Article VI restricted the agreement to the region south of 60 degrees South Latitude. Article I prohibited military installations, military maneuvers, and weapons testing. The continent was sealed into a governance framework that has never been renegotiated on its core terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eWhat they found during Highjump is in the operational records.
