Mawson turned down an invitation to join Robert Falcon Scott's
Terra Nova Expedition in 1910; Australian geologist Griffith Taylor
went instead. Dawson chose to lead his own expedition, the
Australian Antarctic Expedition, to King George V Land and Adelie
Land, the sector of the Antarctic continent immediately south of
Australia, which at the time was almost entirely unexplored. The
objectives were to carry out geographical exploration and
scientific studies, including visiting the South Magnetic Pole.
