Antarctic Shipwreck: Search for 100 Year-Old Lost Ship Set to Begin

FALKLAND ISLANDS — An expedition to find the wreck of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s Endurance will set sail to search the depths of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea next month, according to the BBC. The iconic ship sank in November of 2015 after becoming trapped in Antarctic sea ice during an attempt to make the first land crossing of the Antarctic. Now, funded by the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust, the South African-registered research ship, the Agulhas [f]II will for a second time attempt to find it. The same team failed in a previous attempt in 2019 when its autonomous underwater vehicle lost contact with the surface and as such the new expedition will utilize two different robot submersibles, known as SAAB [g]Sabertooths, to travel the estimated 900 meters down to the seabed. According to the Expedition’s website, the Sabertooths will not be equipped to take samples from the wreck. Instead they will use cameras and scanners to undertake a high-resolution digital survey of the wreck. The expedition will also undertake a program of sea ice monitoring and measurements.
