The Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust said on March 9 that its Endurance22 Expedition had located the wreck of Ernest Shackleton’s ship Endurance, which has not been seen since it was crushed by the ice and sank in the Weddell Sea in 1915.
Endurance was found at a depth of 3,008 meters, within a search area defined by the expedition team before its departure from Cape Town, and approximately four miles south of the position originally recorded by the ship’s captain, Frank Worsley..
