Robert Scott was a British explorer who died with his several of his companions on his second expedition to the Antarctic due to starvation, exhaustion and the extremely cold weather. More than 100 years after his death, an artifact from his ill-fated Terra Nova Expedition of 1910-1913 has emerged.
In a statement released on Oct. 20, New Zealand's Antarctic Heritage Trust said that a notebook from Scott's last expedition was discovered trapped in ice in a hut.
Based on the texts written on the opening pages, the newly found notebook was owned by George Murray Levick, a zoologist, surgeon and photographer who was part of Scott's 1910-1913 voyage to the Antarctic and one of the six members of the expedition's Northern Party.
Upon reaching the Antarctic, the Terra Nova expedition split into two groups. Scott's party reached the South Pole on Jan. 17, 1912.
