Endurance (1912 ship)
Endurance was a ship in which Sir Ernest Shackleton and a crew of 27 men and one cat sailed for the Antarctic on the 1914–1917 while they were on the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. It was launched in 1912 from Sandefjord in Norway. Three years later, it was crushed by pack ice and sank in the Weddell Sea off Antarctica. All of its crew survived.
On 9 March 2022, 107 years later, it was announced that the wreck of Endurance was found in "good condition".[1]
