A science support contractor, Evan Townsend, created the True South design during the austral winter of 2018 while at an Antarctic research station. The flag has the following meaning:
Horizontal stripes of navy and white represent the long days and nights at Antarctica’s extreme latitude. In the center, a lone white peak erupts from a field of snow and ice, echoing those of the bergs, mountains, and pressure ridges that define the Antarctic horizon. The long shadow it casts forms the unmistakable shape of a compass arrow pointed south, an homage to the continent’s legacy of exploration. Together, the two center shapes create a diamond, symbolizing the hope that Antarctica will continue to be a center of peace, discovery, and cooperation for generations to come.
The True South design has been used by National Antarctic Programs, Antarctic nonprofits, and expedition teams. It has flown at more than a dozen research stations across Antarctica as well as in locations on every other continent.

It has excellent strength retention under UV exposure, and high resistance to UV fading. The colors are deep, bright, and last over time due to the aniline dye process. They have better wash-fastness and light-fastness than nylons of similar fabric construction. One inch double edge fold around flag, with four rows of stitching on the fly edge. There is reinforced stitching at the top and bottom of the fly edge of the flag.
