Vintage Royal Research ship RRS Discovery moored in Dundee on the River Tay, Scotland, UK
In 1901 Captain Robert Falcon Scott set sail in the tall ship Discovery. As part of the epic voyage Scott and his men spent two long harsh winters frozen into the crushing Antarctic ice. Discovery returned home in 1904 to a hero's welcome and a place in maritime history.
