fWotD Episode 2477: Ernest Shackleton Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Thursday, 15 February 2024 is Ernest Shackleton.Ernest Henry Shackleton (15 February 1874 – 5 January 1922) was an Anglo-Irish Antarctic explorer who led three British expeditions to the Antarctic. He was one of the principal figures of the period known as the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration.Born in Kilkea, County Kildare, Ireland, Shackleton and his Anglo-Irish family moved to Sydenham in suburban south London when he was ten. Shackleton's first experience of the polar regions was as third officer on Captain Robert Falcon Scott's Discovery Expedition of 1901–1904, from which he was sent home early on health grounds, after he and his companions Scott and Edward Adrian Wilson set a new southern record by marching to latitude 82°S. During the Nimrod Expedition of 1907–1909, he and three companions established a new record Farthest South latitude of 88°23′ S, only 97 geographical miles (112 statute miles or 180 kilometres) from the South Pole, the largest advance to the pole in exploration history. Also, members of his team climbed Mount Erebus, the most active Antarctic volcano. On returning home, Shackleton was knighted for his achievements by King Edward VII.After the race to the South Pole ended in December 1911, with Roald Amundsen's conquest, Shackleton turned his attention to the crossing of Antarctica from sea to sea, via the pole. To this end, he made preparations for what became the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1914–1917. The expedition was struck by disaster when its ship, Endurance, became trapped in pack ice and finally sank in the Weddell Sea off Antarctica on 21 November 1915. The crew escaped by camping on the sea ice until it disintegrated, then by launching the lifeboats to reach Elephant Island and ultimately the South Atlantic island of South Georgia, enduring a stormy ocean voyage of 720 nautical miles (1,330 km; 830 mi) in Shackleton's most famous exploit. He returned to the Antarctic with the Shackleton–Rowett Expedition in 1921, but died of a heart attack while his ship was moored in South Georgia. At his wife's request, he remained on the island and was buried in Grytviken cemetery. The wreck of Endurance was discovered just over a century after Shackleton's death. Away from his expeditions, Shackleton's life was generally restless and unfulfilled. In his search for rapid pathways to wealth and security, he launched business ventures which failed to prosper, and he died heavily in debt. Upon his death, he was lauded in the press but was thereafter largely forgotten, while the heroic reputation of his rival Scott was sustained for many decades. Later in the 20th century, Shackleton was "rediscovered", and became a role model for leadership in extreme circumstances. In his 1956 address to the British Science Association, one of Shackleton's contemporaries, Sir Raymond Priestley, said "Scott for scientific method, Amundsen for speed and efficiency but when disaster strikes and all hope is gone, get down on your knees and pray for Shackleton", paraphrasing what Apsley Cherry-Garrard had written in a preface to his 1922 memoir The Worst Journey in the World. In 2002, Shackleton was voted eleventh in a BBC poll of the 100 Greatest Britons.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:25 UTC on Thursday, 15 February 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Ernest Shackleton on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Kimberly Standard.

Abrimos el podcast con uno de esos aventureros que alimentan los sueños, que admiras y hasta sientes cierta envidia, aunque sabes que es (casi) imposibles que le puedas emular. También es cierto que no hay un patrón para definir una aventura y que cada uno construye la suya. Antonio de la Rosa se viene al podcast de iVoox. Como percha el hecho de que la semana pasada se descubriera el Endurance, el barco de Ernest Henry Shackleton que encalló en las gélidas aguas del sur. Hemos invitado al aventurero, además, pocas horas después de que regresara de Ucrania a donde fue para recoger refugiados de este país europeo invadido por Rusia. El vallisoletano de la serranía de Madrid nos acerca su pasión por la aventura y el plan que idea en seguimiento de lo que hizo su homólogo irlandés, cuando emprendió su tercer viaje a la Antártida. Mundial de Montaña en Canfranc Luego nos iremos a Canfranc. Vamos a estar con el alcalde de esta localidad frontera con Francia, en el Valle del Aragón, en Huesca, que ha presentado sus credenciales para ser el próximo año la sede de la segunda edición del Mundial de Montaña. Queremos que Fernando Sánchez nos acerque lo que puede suponer para una población de 600 habitantes la organización de una prueba de primer nivel. Y es que el deporte es más que una ventana del territorio y la organización de carreras contribuyen a luchar contra la despoblación. Abrocharemos Planeta Montaña by Huesca La Magia con nuestra nivóloga de guardia. Cuando creíamos que las borrascas invernales ya eran un recuerdo han reaparecido en nuestras montañas con precipitaciones en forma de nieve, de agua y arena producto de la calima.

Stále ďalej a ďalej na sever, medzi večné ľadovce, do krutého mrazu a do oblastí, kde od obzoru po obzor lemuje náš výhľad biela pláň. Čo je to za chorobu, ktorá núti človeka, aby podnikal takúto už na prvý pohľad absurdnú cestu? Podľahli jej pritom tí najvýznamnejší muži v dejinách polárnych expedícií – Robert Edwin Pearry, Fridtjof Nansen, Ernest Henry Shackleton či Roald Amundsen. V populárnej literatúre sa často stretneme s termínom – polárne šialenstvo. Práve táto diagnóza do určitej miery vysvetľuje správanie sa viacerých polárnikov, ktorí akoby v sebe potlačili pud sebazáchovy a vrhali sa do najnebezpečnejších expedícií. Ďaleká Arktída pritom od samého počiatku prebúdzala ľudskú predstavivosť. Tak ako každá historická epocha i doba veľkých objaviteľských ciest k severnému pólu si pre seba vytvárala imaginárne krajiny, či jedným slovom utópiu – pomyselný raj za hranicou mrazu, kam neprenikne dokonca ani ľudská zloba, chamtivosť a kde ešte pretrváva dávno stratený zlatý vek. Čo všetko v človeku vyvolával a stále vyvoláva pohľad do polárnych oblastí našej planéty? A ako to ovplyvnilo našu kultúru a naše vnímanie sveta?

Il 1 agosto 1914 Sir Ernest Shackleton salpa da Londra accompagnato da ventisette uomini per lanciarsi nell'impresa di attraversare a piedi l'Antartide. Durante quell'odissea che durerà due lunghissimi anni, l'esploratore britannico e i suoi compagni vivranno avventure ai limiti dell'incredibile: il naufragio della nave Endurance, il bivacco tra i ghiacci, le peregrinazioni verso la terraferma, l'attraversamento di montagne e ghiacciai inesplorati. Una storia avvincente ‒ fatta di determinazione, fiducia reciproca, ottimismo e capacità di adattamento ‒ che viene raccontata a parole da Paolo Colombo e disegnata dal vivo da Michele Tranquillini tramite i suoi suggestivi acquerelli. E che risponde a una domanda: cosa vuol dire essere eroi? E quale idea di eroismo vogliamo per il tempo in cui viviamo?
