Program Description

Event Details

Antarctica represented the last great adventure in the Golden Age of exploration during the early parts of the 20th century. Three years after Robert Scott became the first person to reach the South Pole, Ernest Shackleton launched a futile expedition to trek across the continent in 1914. Join Eco-Photo Explorers to examine the story of this legendary journey, which was famously halted when the expedition ship Endurance became trapped in ice, forcing the crew to survive the harsh Antarctica winter with meager supplies for months on end.
