became a first lieutenant. While commanding an Antarctic expedition on the ship «Discovery» (1901-1904), he proved to be a competent scientific investigator and leader and was promoted to captain upon his return to England.

on the ship «Terra Nova». Its aims were to study the Ross Sea area and reach the South Pole.

day we have been ready to start for our depot 11 miles away but outside the door of the tent it remains a scene of whirling drift…. We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker, of course. It seems a pity, but I do not think I can write more.»
