About the Project 
Welcome to the 2005/6 HMS Endurance Tracking Project.

HMS Endurance is the Royal Navy’s Ice Patrol Vessel. Through this website, you can track her deployment from the UK to the cold of the frozen south. Find out about various aspects of the journey – from eco-systems and wildlife, to how HMS Endurance supports the work of organisations like British Antarctic Survey to deliver the science that will inform our future understanding of Antarctica.
