Departure of 'Terra Nova'.<br/><br/>Cardiff 15 June 1910. <br/>

Aerial drone view approaching the cliffs of an ice shelf on the coast of Antarctica. An ice shelf is where ice flowing from the land as a glacier extends out over the sea. Warming seas due to climate change have led to increased loss of ice shelves, which accelerates the flow of the land-based glacier, contributing to sea level rise. Filmed at Orne Harbour, on the Danco Coast on the western Antarctic Peninsula.
