Join us as we delve into a fascinating historical expedition that took an unexpected turn. In 1938, with Hitler's approval, a daring expedition set out from Nazi Germany to Antarctica. Their mission? To find new whaling locations and claim Antarctic territory, driven by Germany's heavy reliance on whale fat for margarine and machine lubricant.

🌐 Discover the untold story of the Nazi Antarctic expedition and its ambitious goals for a self-sufficient Germany.

Uncover the details of this intriguing journey as the Germans established a temporary base, naming the region New Schwabenland. The expedition faced challenges as the area had just been claimed by the Norwegians as Queen Maudland.

Dive deeper into the expedition's activities, from survey teams and Nazi flag plantings to aerial missions that dropped unique swastika-emblazoned arrows. Explore the vast territory covered, with over 16,000 aerial photographs taken, and learn why the Germans ultimately fell short of their ambitious claims and self-reliance goals.
