Administratively, Argentine Antarctica is a [[Departments of Argentina|department]] of the [[Provinces of Argentina|province]] of [[Tierra del Fuego Province, Argentina|Tierra del Fuego, Antarctica, and South Atlantic Islands]]. The provincial authorities reside in [[Ushuaia]] and the Governor annually designates his or her delegate for the Antarctica region. The "civil power" of any of the administrators extends no further than that nation's own bases. The [[South Orkney Islands]] are part of ''Islas del Atlántico Sur'' (South Atlantic Islands) Department, which include [[Falkland Islands]] and [[South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands]] (according to Argentine claim).<ref>[http://recursosweb.tierradelfuego.gov.ar/webapps/catastro/atla/11_atlas_tdf_politico.pdf División política] – Gobierno de la provincia de Tierra del Fuego, Antártida e Islas del Atlántico Sur</ref>

The Argentine exploration of the continent started early in the 20th century. [[José María Sobral]] was the first Argentine to set foot on Antarctica in 1902, where he spent 2 seasons with the [[Swedish Antarctic Expedition]] of Doctor [[Otto Nordenskiöld]]. Shortly afterwards, in 1904, the [[Orcadas Base|Orcadas permanent base]] was already fully operational. Years later other bases would be created, some permanent and others seasonal. The first Argentine expedition to reach the [[South Pole]] was the 1965 [[Operación 90]].
