Amundsen did what most British explorers failed to do. He read the log books of every failed Polar (North Pole) expedition and learned every possible lesson as to why they failed. He noticed that in many cases the Inuit and other Native people of the North were able to rescue sailors when that number was small so he went out and studied the harness type for dog sleigh from the Natives of Greenland and Canada using what he though were the best of each design and he learned how to live in the North as they did including how to build igloos. He learned to travel light as British explorers would lug around with them heavy dishes and cutlery which was exhausting work. He had a ship designed called the Fram which had a strong hull that would pop up above the ice if it formed around it instead of being crushed and on his way to the pole he left cashes of seal meat to feed the crew on its return trip. So while Shackleton had a ship called Nimrod, Scott acted like one with his poor planning.

Shackleton and crew were stranded on the ice for over 16 months. The ship was trapped for nine(9) months before it was crushed by the pack ice. It was six months later that they landed a boat on Elephant Island, where the crew awaited rescue while Shackleton and his boat could reach South Georgia island and arrange to rescue the entire crew.The final rescue from Elephant Island was over two years after the expedition left England.

"For scientific discovery, give me Scott; for speed and efficiency of travel, give me Amundsen; but when you are in a hopeless situation, when you are seeing no way out, get down on your knees and pray for Shackleton." - Sir Raymond Priestley

@chrsmcfrln 8 дней назад

The other interpretation of that quote is that Shackleton was most likely to put you in a hopeless situation. Frank Wild and Frank Worsley dug his incompetence out of the Endurance disaster. Also, no one mentions the Aurora when glorifying Shackleton. This was the Ross Sea support ship to the Endurance expedition. It was a total disaster with many casualties. Bottom line, Shackleton was good in a crisis, but his terrible planning kept putting him and others in a crisis.

Few days ago I watched a TED talk of "Why do we celebrate incompetent leaders." Speaker mentions Shackleton gets lots of recognition where Amundsen is not that well known. The speaker said Shackleton's stories are more interesting about the struggles and human endurance. Where Amundsen from his years of training crew made it look easy (not much for story telling). These polar explorers is an example of why people celebrate leaders that are high-sounding even though their leadership can lead to disaster. As compared to leaders that do proper planning. And we see this happening all over the place right now.

Amundsen and his crew ate ALL his dogs by the end of their mission, the ones that weren't doing so well just went first. The remaining dogs were fed the entrails of their one time buddies while the humans ate the "better" cuts, don't forget that the Chinese regard dog as a delicacy. There ain't alot of vitamin C in a dog - you need to eat fruit & veggies as fresh as possible with little cooking. Modern travellers take pills of course!

For the record, Shackleton and the crew of the Endurance were stranded for a lot longer than four months. Endurance became icebound on January 17, 1915, and drifted with the pack ice until it was crushed and sank on November 21. The crew then camped on the ice as it drifted northward, then made their way across the ice hauling their gear and supplies in the lifeboats until they found open water on April 9, 1916, reaching Elephant Island on April 14. On April 24, Shackleton and five of the crew set off in one of the lifeboats, which had been modified by the ship’s carpenter using planks from the other two boats. They sailed to South Georgia Island, 800 miles away. They landed on May 10, on the opposite side of the island from the whaling station which was the only settlement, and had to cross mountains to get there. THEN…. It took FOUR attempts to mount a rescue operation to get the remaining crew from Elephant Island, finally succeeding on August 30. Every single member of the crew survived. January 17, 1915 to August 30, 1916, definitely more than four months! One of most amazing feats of history.

I worked as an industrial electrician in Antarctica for two 6 month rotations at two different bases over 2 years (2001-02). An amazingly beautiful and extremely inhospitable paradise. Well, I loved nearly every moment I lived and worked there. I highly recommend anyone with the necessary skills and those who can afford a cruise to definitely do your best to visit Antarctica.

Fun fact about a fun fact, Mount Erebus and Mount Terror (other than being two of the most epic volcano names) were named after the two ships of one of the expeditions to chart Antarctica, the HMS Terror and HMS Erebus, better known for when they were later refitted as makeshift icebreakers with terrible steam engines and used for the Franklin Expedition trying to find the Northwest Passage north of Canada, where the ships were trapped in ice and the crew got the fun combo of botulism (from poorly canned food), lead poisoning (from the solder on said cans) and scurvy (because they ran out of fresh food) and eventually abandoned the ships to be crushed by the ice, trying to walk to the nearest outpost, with the entire crew dying en route from starvation, disease, cold and cannibalism. Also fictionalised in the book and TV show “The Terror” which reimagines their deaths as being hunted by an Inuit spirit creature resembling a polar bear

No, the lakes under the Antarctica were postulated to exist in the late 1950s by Igor A Zotikov, a colleague of mine. Yes, heated by the less than a tenth of a watt per square metre low level heat flow. The about 3500 m of ice forms a thermal blanket, allowing the water to melt at just below 0 deg C.

Even Admiral Byrd, who at the time was the most decorated Naval officer in the US military, came back a different man and he said some very interesting things. There is another very interesting story that Joe didn't mention. A more recent incident involving a team of scientists from McMurdo that went missing only to show up a week later and were themselves very reluctant to talk about what happened to them. The military personal who were responsible for recovering and flying them back to base even said something traumatic happened to them or they witnessed something traumatic.

True. It’s because precipitation amounts are very low. The reason there’s all that snow and ice, is because when it does snow over the years, it doesn’t melt. There are areas near the edge where precipitation is abundant, the temperatures get above freezing quite often in the summer so snow melts then replenishes.
