In 1901 Shackleton joined Captain Robert Falcon Scott 's British National Antarctic Expedition. Scott, Shackleton, and Edward Wilson traveled by sledge over the Ross Ice Shelf, the world's largest body of floating ice, into the interior (land away from the coast) of Antarctica. This was the first long-distance sledge journey into Antarctica. They were less than 500 miles (805 kilometers) from the South Pole. Shackleton became sick on the return trip over the ice shelf. He was sent back to England to recover.

Shackleton returned to Antarctica in 1908 as leader of the Nimrod expedition. This time Shackleton came within 112 miles (180 kilometers) of the South Pole. The expedition also climbed and surveyed Mount Erebus, the active volcano on Ross Island.

Shackleton led another expedition in 1914. He planned to cross Antarctica. However, his ship, the Endurance, became trapped in ice before it reached Antarctica. The ship then drifted for 10 months before being crushed by the ice. The members of the expedition lived on large sheets of ice for another five months before escaping in small boats to Elephant Island, in the South Atlantic Ocean. Eventually, Shackleton was able to rescue all of his men from Elephant Island.
