Hi. I have been researching as best I could, into Captain Scott's sextant, used on his expedition to the South Pole. I have photos of the one my friend has. His father worked in Portsmouth in the second world war, and his son thinks this is where/when he got given the sextant. This forum looks to be an amazing place of history and knowledge. Is it possible someone can take a look at the photos and give an experts opinion on them? There is one photo I found from National Geogrpahic showing the sextant on that mission.
Thanks
Richard
