EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the unique and otherworldly beauty of pancake ice formations in the Ross Sea, as photographed from the legendary exploratory ship Nimrod around the year 1907. Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew, who were on an expedition to Antarctica, would have marveled at this natural phenomena as they sailed through the frigid waters. Pancake ice, also known as tabular ice, is a type of ice that forms when large icebergs break apart and the resulting ice floes have a flat, pancake-like shape. The ice floes are typically large and uniform in size, with smooth, flat surfaces and straight edges. They create a mesmerizing pattern on the surface of the sea, resembling a vast expanse of pancakes or tablets. The Ross Sea, located in the southern part of the Antarctic continent, is known for its extreme weather conditions and unique natural wonders. The presence of pancake ice is a common occurrence in this region, particularly during the winter months when temperatures drop and the sea freezes over. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past and the early days of Antarctic exploration. It serves as a reminder of the awe-inspiring natural phenomena that can be found in the most remote and inhospitable places on Earth. The image also pays homage to the intrepid explorers who braved the harsh conditions to expand our knowledge and understanding of the world around us.
