Why did Scott's meticulously laid plans end in disaster while his rival Norwegian Amundsen returned home safely after reaching the pole? On November 12, 1912, a rescue team trekking across Antarctica's Great Ice Barrier found the snow-covered tent of the British explorer Robert Falcon Scott. Inside, they made a grim discovery: Scott's frozen body lay between the bodies of two fellow explorers. They had died just 11 miles from the depot of supplies which might have saved them. The remaining two members of the party were nowhere in sight, but Scott's eloquent diary soonrevealed their fate.
