Original flag flown by the 'Discovery', stored at the Royal Museums Greenwich.. In 1929, members of the British Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition on RRS Discovery used white cotton sheeting to improvise a courtesy ensign (a flag used as a token of respect by vessels while in foreign waters) for a continent without a flag of its own.
The flag consists of a blue field with the French flag with white fimbriation on the canton. The charge consists of 5 stars (for the five regions of the French Southern and Antarctic Territories ) and the letters "TAAF" (from the French name of the territory, Terres australes et antarctiques françaises ) forming a monogram in the shape of anchor.
