The Antarctic Snow Cruiser was a vehicle designed from 1937 to 1939 under the direction of Thomas Poulter, intended to facilitate transport in Antarctica. The Snow Cruiser was also known as 'The Penguin' in some published material.
While having several innovative features, it generally failed to operate as hoped under the difficult conditions, and was eventually abandoned in Antarctica. The Antarctic Snow Cruiser was rediscovered under a deep layer of snow in 1958, it later disappeared again due to shifting ice conditions.
