Shackleton's 1914 expedition is known as the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. Its primary aim was to make the first land crossing of Antarctica from the Weddell Sea to the Ross Sea. The expedition is famously remembered for its challenges, particularly after the ship Endurance became trapped in pack ice and was eventually lost. Despite facing extreme hardships, Shackleton and his crew demonstrated remarkable resilience and leadership in their quest for survival.
