14 December, 1911 was the first time an expedition successfully reached the South Pole.
Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen and four others were the first to make it; the journey marked the first exploration by humans of the hostile conditions in Antarctica.
Five weeks later, a British party led by explorer Robert Falcon Scott also reached the pole, but died on the return journey.
