EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed map of the McMurdo Sound region in Antarctica, a place rich in history and scientific discovery. The map, produced during the early 20th century, marks the exploratory routes and camps of the legendary Terra Nova Expedition led by Sir Robert Falcon Scott. Scott's Terra Nova Expedition (1910-1913) was the British response to the race to reach the South Pole between rival teams led by Roald Amundsen of Norway and Robert Falcon Scott of the United Kingdom. The map illustrates the extensive preparations and exploration efforts that took place in the McMurdo Sound area, which served as the base for Scott's team. The map highlights the various locations of important discoveries and milestones during the expedition, such as the hut sites at Cape Evans and Hut Point, the location of the Discovery Hut used during the Discovery Expedition (1901-1904) led by Captain Robert Falcon Scott, and the location of the Terra Nova Hut, which served as the main base for the Terra Nova Expedition. Additionally, the map indicates the routes taken by Scott and his team as they made their way towards the South Pole, including the tragic return journey that ended in the deaths of Scott and his companions. The map is a testament to the incredible determination and perseverance of the explorers who ventured into the harsh Antarctic landscape, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and scientific discoveries that have shaped our understanding of this fascinating and remote region.
