The Forge of Vulcan Painting by Diego Velazquez

Mystery surrounded the reality of earth. Nobody knew how many poles the earth had. The discovery of North and South Pole solved the mystery. But, behind this discovery lies the courageous battle of the expeditors and their hair-raising experience on ice. Robert Perry discovered the North Pole and Captain Scott and Amundson were the joint winners of the South Pole. The discovery of South Pole was more difficult and this is evident from the diary of Captain Scott, who died in the ice while returning.
