- W4237523209 abstract "THE centre of interest in polar exploration has been shifted, earlier than might have been expected, from the north to the south by the telegram forwarded from Stewart Island from the returning Terra Nova. This vessel has carried Captain Scott's expedition to its base successfully in spite of encountering heavy pack-ice in the remarkably low latitude of 65° S., and having to make 380 miles of difficult travelling through it. The telegram includes messages from Captain Scott and from Lieut. Pennell, the officer commanding the Terra Nova on her return, and it is in the latter message that the salient point of interest is found, namely, the discovery of the celebrated Fram, with Captain Amundsen's expedition aboard, already established in the Bay of Whales, an inlet in the ice-barrier at 165° W. long. It is perhaps early as yet to account for Amundsen's change of plan (for he originally sailed ostensibly with an Arctic journey in view); the interest of the moment is that, assuming his base to be established at the Bay of Whales, he is nearer the Pole by nearly 100 miles than Scott if he elects to strike south in a direct line, and risk discovering a new route up to the polar plateau. If, however, he makes for Shackleton's known route (which Scott, of course, will follow) up the Beardmore glacier, he will have little if any advantage in distance." @default.
