∙ 7y agoScott died at the age of 43 when he was in the Antarctic (hence Scott of the Antarctic). He brought along four crew members to reach the South Pole first but failed. On the way back a crew member (I think he was called Lawrence Oates) knew he was dying and they would not make it with him so he said the famous line "I am just going out, I may be some time" and killed himself. But they all died anyway.
Robert Scott died on 29 March 1912. March 29th is given as the date of his death as that is the last entry in his journal. Nobody knows for sure, but he could have lasted longer, but was too weak to make any more entries.
Reasons by Scott left his tent are unremarkable: it was necessary to move in and out of shelter. You may be thinking of Captain Lawrence Edward Grace "Titus" Oates, who suffered from extreme frostbite on his foot during the return trek from the South Pole -- with Scott, whom he disliked. Oates was apparently concerned that his presence in the team would slow them down and make it harder for his mates to return to safety. One night, then, he left the tent with the comment "I . . . may be some time." He never returned, nor was his body ever found.
the climate of this region is very dangerous with hurricanes and blizzards blowing people who travel here can not bear the cold and often get the frost bite can be so sever los there limbs becaus of their extrme weather

Yes, in December 1911.
Captain Scott didn't 'make it home': he died on his return trek from the South Pole on the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica.
The Antarctic region is isolated and has very harsh conditions. The subzero temperatures make it hard to breath and ice forming on antennas makes radio contact difficult.

Hut Point was established on Ross Island off the coast of Antarctica in the Ross Sea.

The South loved it because it appeared to make slavery legal in every state of the Union.
Starvation is what killed the men in Robert Falcon Scott's party. The men were on an expedition to the South Pole, but were unable to make it and had to turn around.
the true amount was never shown, but it is beleived to be in the region of £800000!
