Shackleton’s expedition was carried by extraordinary men. Ernest Shackleton led the mission. Captain Frank Worsley navigated the Endurance through Antarctic ice. Lieutenant Joseph Stenhouse commanded the Aurora, stranded in the Ross Sea. Captain Leonard Hussey, the expedition’s meteorologist, lifted morale with banjo music while recording vital weather data. Frank Hurley’s footage captured their faces in sequence, turning anonymous figures into the individuals who defined Shackleton’s survival story.
