加拿大皇家地理学会的研究人员在拉布拉多海岸发现了欧内斯特·沙克尔顿最后一艘探险船“探索号”的残骸。 Researchers from the Royal Canadian Geographical Society have discovered the wreck of Ernest Shackleton's final expedition ship, the Quest, off the coast of Labrador. 经声纳扫描,在距海岸 80 公里、水深 390 米处发现了该船。 The ship was found using sonar scans 80 kilometers from shore, at a depth of 390 meters from the surface. 该船的桅杆已折断,躺在沉船旁边,但船只看起来“状况良好”。 The towering mast of the ship is broken and lying beside the wreck, but the vessel appears to be in "incredible condition." 沙克尔顿于 1922 年去世时就在探索号上,这艘船后来被用于北极研究和密封,直到 1962 年被冰损坏并沉没。 Shackleton was aboard the Quest when he died in 1922, and the ship was later used for Arctic research and sealing before it was damaged by ice and sank in 1962.
