EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant front cover of The Sphere's Memorial Number, published in 1913, commemorates the tragic end of Captain Robert Falcon Scott's Antarctic Expedition. The image captures a solemn moment as a group of men gather around a cairn, their heads bowed in prayer, in memory of Captain Scott and his four companions who perished on their return journey from the South Pole in March 1912. The cairn is topped with a cross, symbolizing their final resting place in the harsh and unforgiving Antarctic landscape. The Scott Expedition, which aimed to reach the geographic South Pole, was a significant moment in the history of polar exploration. However, the team arrived at the pole only to find that Roald Amundsen's Norwegian team had beaten them by five weeks. Despite their disappointment, the team pressed on, determined to set a record for the fastest return journey. Tragically, they all succumbed to the extreme conditions, leaving behind a trail of sorrow and loss. This historical edition of The Sphere serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave explorers and the enduring human spirit of perseverance and determination in the face of adversity. The sombre scene depicted on the cover is a testament to the profound impact of their tragic journey on the world, and their place in the annals of Antarctic exploration history.
