NASTALE PRIJE 100 GODINA: Rijetke fotografije prve australijske ekspedicije na Antarktik (FOTO)

Prije više od 100 godina, mladi australijski geolog Douglas Mawson započeo je prvu australijsku ekspediciju na Antarktik.

Ova ekspedicija se pokazala legendarnom kada se uzmu u obzir dostignuća, otpornost, lojalnost i fizička izdržljivost posade.

Ekspedicija je započela 1911 godine, sa ciljem da se koliko je moguće istraže nepoznate obale Antarktika.

Međutim, ova misija je bila fatalna za dva člana Mawsonove posade. 

Uprkos žrtvama, tri godine provedene na temperaturama ispod nule i oštrim vjetrovima nisu provedene uzalud.

Ekspedicija je uspjela da mapira velike dijelove istočne obale Antarktika i rezultirala je velikim doprinosima znanju regiona.

Osim toga, prvi put su opisane pojedine vrste koje su naseljavale kopno i more, a koje su ranije bile nepoznate.

Mawson je proglašen herojem, a njegova postignuća i otkrića su doprinijela unapređenju nauke.

Zahvaljujući fotografu Franku Hurleyu, ali i ostalim članovima posade, možemo vidjeti kako je izgledala ova revolucionarna ekspedicija kroz fotografije:
