The South Polar Times was an on-site monthly publication for two Antarctica expeditions. The first two volumes come from Robert Falcon Scott’s “Discovery” expedition during the winters of 1902 and 1903, edited by Sir Ernest Shackleton and Louis Bernacchi (on the expedition’s only typewriter). The third volume was edited by Apsley Cherry-Garrard, on Scott’s last expedition, the “Terra Nova” polar adventure of 1910-13. This newsletter associated with the new Antarctic Guide website has revived the famous title for a roundup of news about all things polar, and Antarctica in particular.
