Terra Nova Antarctic exploration. Three crew members (Gran, Taylor and Wright) on the main-top of the Terra Nova on 22 December 1910 during the British Antarctic Expedition (1910-1913). Trapped for 20 days in the pack ice from 10-30 December 1910, the Terra Nova arrived in Antarctica on 4 January 1911. Also known as the Terra Nova Expedition, the primary expedition objectives were scientific. Led by Robert Falcon Scott, a shore party of 33, transported and supplied by the Terra Nova, spent two seasons exploring on and around the Ross Ice Shelf. Scott and four others died in 1912 returning from their journey to the South Pole.
