[NMCCSC] Shackleton's ship Endurance Found

[Angela Welford]

Sam- thanks so much for sending this! I have been obsessed with Shackleton
and the Endurance for a long time. If you haven't seen it, there is a PBS
show called "Chasing Shackleton" about a group who re-created the voyage in
a life boat across the Wedell Sea to the rescue station on South George
Island.
