The '''[[ | The '''[[South Pole]]''' is one of the two points where the Earth's axis of rotation intersects its surface. It is the southernmost point on the surface of the Earth and lies in [[Antarctica]] on the opposite side of the Earth from the North Pole. The South Pole is both the southernmost and easternmost point of [[Westarctica]]. | ||
The first people to reach the Geographic South Pole were the Norwegian [[Roald Amundsen]] and his party on December 14, 1911. [[Robert Falcon Scott]] and four other men reached the South Pole on January 17, 1912, thirty-four days after Amundsen. On the return trip, Scott and his four companions all died of starvation and extreme cold. | |||
