The Telegraph | Ernest Shackleton’s ship Endurance seen in detailed 3D scan @telegraph | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Sir Ernest Shackleton’s Endurance has been seen like never before in a detailed 3D scan.
The wreck of the explorer’s vessel was found 3,000 metres beneath the surface of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea in 2022, more than a century on from its sinking in 1915.
The Anglo-Irish explorer was leading an attempt to cross the ice-covered continent in 1915 when his ship sank after being crushed by pack ice.
Now a new digital scan made from 25,000 separate images of Endurance has captured it in remarkable detail.
