A new National Geographic documentary “Endurance,” will premiere at the London Film Festival on Saturday before being released in UK cinemas from Monday and on Disney+ later in the year.
The documentary includes a 3D digital scan of Sir Ernest Shackleton‘s ship, created from 25,000 high-resolution images taken after the ship was found in 2022. The 3D scan, by Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust, reveals amazing details about the ship that sank in 1915 and lies 3,000m down at the bottom of the Weddell Sea. The documentary tells the story of Shackleton’s ill-fated voyage, as well as that of the expedition that discovered the wreck of the Endurance.
The BBC notes that the 3D scan was made using underwater robots that mapped the wreck from every angle, taking thousands of photographs. These were then “stitched” together to create a digital twin.
