EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, attributed to the Frank Debenham collection and preserved by the University of Cambridge SPRI, transports us back in time to a momentous day in Antarctic history. It captures the Northern party of the British Antarctic Expedition 1910-13, led by the legendary Captain Robert Falcon Scott, upon their arrival at Cape Evans on November 7th, 1912. Standing proudly beside their heavily laden sledge, these six intrepid explorers exude an air of weatherbeaten resilience and disheveled determination. Their faces bear witness to the harsh conditions they have endured during their arduous journey through this unforgiving icy wilderness. In the background stands a humble hut that has become both refuge and sanctuary for these brave souls. It is a testament to human ingenuity amidst nature's harshest elements – a symbol of survival against all odds. From left to right, we see Dickason, Abbott, Browning, Campbell, Priestley, and Levick – each one representing unwavering commitment and unwavering spirit in pursuit of scientific discovery. They are united not only by their shared mission but also by an unbreakable bond forged through countless trials faced together. As we gaze upon this remarkable image frozen in time over a century ago, we cannot help but be humbled by these extraordinary individuals who dared to venture into one of Earth's most inhospitable regions. Their courage serves as an inspiration for generations to come – reminding us that even in our darkest moments or most challenging environments; there is always hope if we persevere with unwavering determination. Thanks to institutions like the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge SPRI preserving such invaluable historical artifacts; we can continue honoring those who came before us while striving towards new frontiers ourselves.
