Scott reaches the South Pole and finds he is second
node
Robert Falcon Scott's party arrives at the Pole about a month after Amundsen and dies on the return march. The expedition is included here for what it carried rather than for the race: its scientific programme, including the winter journey to collect emperor penguin eggs at Cape Crozier, is among the earliest deliberate biological work on the species this Journey treats as core.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
