A New 3D Scan, Created from 25,000 High-Resolution Images, Reveals the Remarkably Well-Preserved Wreck of Shackleton's Endurance
Briefly

Few who hear the story of the Endurance could avoid reflecting on the aptness of the ship's name. A year after setting out on the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition in 1914, it got stuck in a mass of drifting ice off Antarctica.
What secures its place in the history books is the sub-expedition made by Shackleton and five others in search of help, which ensured the rescue of every single man who'd been on the ship.
The documentary incorporates footage and photos captured during the expedition by Australian photographer Frank Hurley, who brought several cameras along for the journey.
Filmmakers have color-treated Hurley's black-and-white images and footage for the first time, and they also used artificial intelligence to recreate crew members' voices to 'read' their own diary entries.
