Dundee Whaling Expedition
The Dundee Whaling Expedition (1892–1893) began on 6 September 1892, when a Dundee whaling company (due to dwindling arctic whaling resources) decided to send four steam-powered whaling ships, the ''Balaena'', ''Active'', ''Diana'' and ''Polar Star'', to the Weddell Sea in search of Right Whales.〔(Voyage of the Balaena ), Glasgow Digital Library, retrieved 3 December 2013〕
They found no whales they could harvest as the Blue whales of the Antarctic were too powerful to be captured. The expedition managed to make a profit by collecting a large number of seal pelts. The expedition included the polar scientist William Speirs Bruce and William Gordon Burn Murdoch who were surgeon and assistant on the ''Balaena'' under Captain Alexander Fairweather.〔 On 8 January 1893, Captain Thomas Robertson of the ''Active'' discovered Dundee Island ().
