Now on and coming up:
With Scott to the Pole (free entry)
Society Exhibition
- Monday 16 January 2012 to Friday 30 March 2012 - open Monday to Friday, 10am until 5pm
Captain Scott’s doomed expedition to the South Pole is remembered in its centenary year.
This thought-provoking exhibition combines some of the finest polar photography by the official expedition photographer, Herbert Ponting, with a digital gallery illustrating the way in which Scott’s most important legacy, the beginning of scientific research in Antarctica, reflects itself in the scientific research being carried out in polar areas today and showcasing examples of the achievements and work being carried out today by the British Antarctic Survey along with other international initiatives supported via UK universities and by the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) through its grants programme.
Venue: Royal Geographical Society (with IBG), Kensington Gore, London SW7 2AR.
Visit our Picture Library to browse and buy prints of over 800 images from Scott’s British Antarctic Expedition.
Schools can also use the Discovering Antarctica website developed by the Society in partnership with the British Antarctic Survey and FCO.
Find out more about the exhibition and a number of other resources available on our Scott centenary webpage.
