Discovery Point Transformed

A New Centre for Antarctic Heritage, Environment and Learning

Our goal with this ambitious project is to transform Discovery Point into a world-class centre for Antractic heritage and science, connecting the pioneering history of the Royal Research Ship Discovery with contemporary global issues such as climate change the ocean environment and current Antarctic research.

Keeping the historic RRS Discovery centre stage, the project will exploit more fully Discovery Point's unique waterfront location, tell compelling stories using our rich collections and deliver a vibrant learning and engagement programme for people of all ages and backgrounds.
