Program Description

Event Details

Explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton launched an expedition to Antarctica in December 1914. His ship, the Endurance, became trapped in pack ice shortly after, and months later, in November 1915, sank in the Weddell Sea. The entire crew miraculously survived the lengthy arduous ordeal and were safely rescued in August 1916. Eco-Photo Explorers will discuss the search for the recently discovered shipwreck, long lost below the ice of the Southern Ocean and, finally, will take you to Antarctica on their own expedition.
