EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Basalt bomb, an igneous rock specimen collected during Sir Robert Falcon Scott's British Antarctic Expedition (1910-1913), also known as the Terra Nova Expedition. The Terra Nova expedition was a significant scientific endeavor, with a broad program focused on collecting thousands of geological and zoological specimens to expand human knowledge of the natural world. The Basalt bomb in this image is a volcanic rock formed when lava from a volcanic eruption cooled down rapidly. Basalt is the most common type of extrusive igneous rock, meaning it forms when magma cools and solidifies at the Earth's surface. The unique, rounded shape of this Basalt bomb is a result of its formation during an explosive volcanic eruption, where the lava was ejected from the volcano and cooled in mid-air before hitting the ground. The Terra Nova expedition's geological team, led by Professor Edgeworth David, was responsible for collecting this and countless other Basaltic specimens from the volcanic landscapes of Antarctica. The team's discoveries provided valuable insights into the geological history of the continent and contributed significantly to the scientific understanding of volcanic processes and the formation of igneous rocks. This studio shot of the Basalt bomb offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the geological wonders of Antarctica, captured during one of history's most influential scientific expeditions. The intricate textures and rich colors of the rock are a testament to the power and beauty of the natural world, as well as the dedication and curiosity of the scientists who sought to uncover its secrets.
