Antarctic quest to find Shackleton's lost ship - BBC News
The Endurance was lost on Ernest Shackleton's ill-fated expedition to the Antarctic in 1914-17 and lies at the bottom of the Weddell Sea.
Many have tried to identify its resting place but sea-ice cover in the region makes navigation very tricky.
Dr John Shears and colleagues, however, are undaunted. Having been beaten on their last mission, they're returning.
The team will take different submersibles this time after the type of vehicle used on the previous quest went missing.
If the group succeeds in finding Endurance, they'll map it and photograph it, but they won't retrieve any artefacts.
Shackleton's ship is a site of historic importance and has been designated as a monument under the international Antarctic Treaty. It mustn't be disturbed in any way.
