Description

Captain Robert Falcon Scott and his team lost the race to the South Pole, but their heroic efforts brought us amazing scientific discoveries. When their bodies were found, their sled was still loaded with rock samples. Scott’s first expedition party had found the first traces of ancient plant life in Antarctica and during the final weeks of the ill-fated expedition, the team found fossils of huge importance. Join us to discover the story of these historical specimens and find out what the fossils tell us.
