A review of the present whereabouts of Scott's party

In 1901, Commander Robert Falcon Scott lead a small group of men to the Antarctica in what is now known as the Discovery Expedition, after their ship, the Discovery. The expedition landed in McMurdo Bay and built a hut, establishing a base there, from where they undertook scientific observations and land/ice based voyages of discovery. The expedition stayed for three years, during which time Scott, together with Shackleton and Wilson set off southwards toward the South Pole. They established a new record for furthest south, and returned in poor health, but with a vision to attain their goal of reaching the Pole. Shackleton returned with his own expedition in 1908, and established a new furthest south record, reaching within 100 miles of the South Pole, and then Scott returned again' in 1910, with his main purpose being to be the first man to reach the South Pole. At the same time as Scott's Terra Nova expedition was preparing for and travelling to Antarctica from England, via Australia and New Zealand, Norwegian, Roald Amundsen, was also preparing to be the first to the South Pole.
