Sir Ernest Shackleton ’s lost ship Endurance has been seen in spectacular 3D detail in new images released more than a century after it sunk. The vessel was hidden at a depth of 3,000m at the bottom of the icy Weddell Sea in Antarctica after sinking in 1915 – before it was discovered two years ago, beautifully preserved by the ice.

The lost ship of Victorian explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton can be seen in incredible detail for the first time. The Endurance sank in 1915 and lies 3km (1.8miles) below the surface at the bottom of the Weddell Sea in Antarctica.

In anticipation of the film’s October 12 premiere at the BFI London Film Festival, National Geographic in collaboration with the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust—which funded Endurance22—has released stunning 3D scans of the wreck.

The wreck of Sir Ernest Shackleton's ship, the Endurance, which lay hidden in icy waters for more than a hundred years, can now be seen in a detailed 3D scan. The high resolution images reveal its condition in intricate detail. The wreckage of the vessel was found 3,000 metres at the bottom of the Weddell Sea in 2022 after it sank in 1915.

The Endurance has now been scanned in 3D, and the details are remarkably clear, making it look like the vessel was lifted back onto dry land.
