專家說明

Robert Falcon Scott led the British Antarctic Expedition, also known as the Terra Nova Expedition, which took place between 1910 and 1913. Intending to secure the South Pole for the British Government, he and his party raced against a Norwegian team, led by Roald Amundsen. On 17th January 1912, Scott reached the South Pole only to find Amundsen’s marker flags and tent. Over the course of their return journey, Scott and all of his polar party perished.
