An expedition led by the motor yacht MY Legend has completed the first visual survey of the wreck of the SS Terra Nova, offering new insight into one of the most emblematic ships of polar exploration.

Scott brought expert Tryggve Gran on the Terra Nova excursion, in hopes that he might help train the rest of the expedition’s crew to ski. By no means, however, was training required.

Because of the name of the ship, Scott's mission has been historically referred to as the Terra Nova Expedition. Scott was not the only group looking to be the first to reach the South Pole.

The Terra Nova Expedition is infamous for the tragic deaths of five explorers, but it also led to scientific discoveries that changed what we know about the world around us.
