Scott Expedition
The Scott Expedition refers to a series of Antarctic explorations led by British explorer Robert Falcon Scott in the early 20th century. The most notable journey, known as the Terra Nova Expedition, took place from 1910 to 1913, aiming to reach the South Pole. Scott and his team faced extreme weather conditions, challenging terrain, and limited supplies during their quest.
Tragically, Scott and his companions reached the South Pole on January 17, 1912, only to discover that the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen had arrived first. The return journey proved fatal for Scott and his team, who perished in March 1912 due to harsh conditions and exhaustion.
