In 1915 Ernest Shackleton’s ship, Endurance, sank off the coast of Antarctica, stranding the crew on drifting sea ice. Shackleton’s desperate rescue mission saved all 28 men. But for more than a century afterward, the location of Endurance eluded archaeologists—until this year. National Geographic photographer Esther Horvath was there and recounts the moment when the ship was located 10,000 feet beneath the polar ice.

A 2022 expedition discovered Endurance almost two miles below the surface of the Southern Ocean. The sinking of Endurance, in 1915, stranded Ernest Shackleton and his crew of explorers on floating sea ice as they attempted to cross Antarctica on foot.
