A box containing the negatives to 22 pictures of Antarctica has been discovered after getting lost for almost a century, according to CNN.

The negatives were found in a small box in a hut set up by world-renowned British explorer Robert Falcon Scott during his South Pole expedition.

The negatives were removed by New Zealand's Antarctic Heritage Trust earlier this year, according to CNN.

The Antarctic Heritage Trust said the photographs are from Ernest Shackleton's Ross Sea Party, who lived in Scott's hut after their ship, the Aurora, blew out to sea, leaving them stranded on Ross Island, according to CNN.

"It's an exciting find and we are delighted to see them exposed after a century," said Nigel Watson, Antarctic Heritage Trust's Executive Director, according to CNN.

One of the photos includes an image of Ross Sea Party member Alexander Stevens, who was Shackleton's Chief Scientist, standing on the Aurora before it washed away.

Scott was attempting to become the first person to reach the South Pole, but found out that a Norwegian group beat him to the punch.

The expedition, which lasted from 1910 through 1913, didn't go well for Scott, as he and his four colleagues were killed from a combination of starvation, exhaustion, and extreme cold, according to CNN.

The identity of the photographer has not been verified yet.
