[00:11.06]The RACE to the POLE

[00:13.47]On 1 June, 1910,

[00:16.16]Captain Scott left London to begin his journey

[00:19.62]to the Antarctic.

[00:21.04]On his way, he received a message

[00:23.36]from the Norwegian explorer 2 Roald Amundsen:

[00:26.82]"I'm going South." So the race to the South

[00:30.75]Pole was on!

[00:32.51]During the polar 3 summer of 1910-1911,

[00:36.47]both teams organized food bases

[00:39.10]in preparation for their journeys the next year

[00:42.52]Then came the total darkness

[00:44.55]of the polar winter.

[00:46.26]Scott and Amundsen waited anxiously for spring.

[00:50.50]Amundsen was the first to leave,

[00:52.85]on 15 October, 1911.

[00:55.83]He had teams of dogs pulling the sledges 4

[00:58.59]and all his men were on skis 5.

[01:01.20]Because of this, he made rapid progress.

[01:04.85]Scott left on 1 November

[01:07.03]and soon had problems.

[01:08.81]First, his two sledges broke down,

[01:11.49]and then the horses begs to have serious

[01:13.95]difficulties with the snow and the cold.

[01:17.30]After a while,Scott and his men

[01:19.97]had to push the sledges themselves.
