On June 15, 1910, a large, excited and noisy crowd cheered a ship as she left the Roath Basin in Cardiff's docklands. The ship was SS Terra Nova, and it was headed south — to Antarctica. On board were Captain Robert Falcon Scott and members of his British Antarctic Expedition. Their goal was to explore Antarctica and be the first to reach the South Pole. Discover all about this voyage and why Welsh people funded a large part of this expedition.
