• Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition: Seven survivors of the Ross Sea party were rescued after being stranded for several months.
• Russian Duma Opening Postponed The opening of the Duma (Russian Parliament) was postponed until February 25, significantly escalating tensions between the Russian monarchy and the parliamentary government.

• Silent Sentinels Begin White House Protest The suffragist group known as the Silent Sentinels, led by Alice Paul of the National Woman's Party, initiated daily demonstrations in front of the White House in Washington, D.C. This marked a pivotal moment in the women's suffrage movement, using peaceful protest to draw national attention to the fight for women's voting rights.
• Rescue of Ross Sea Party Survivors The last seven marooned members of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition were dramatically rescued at Cape Evans, Antarctica by the polar ship SY Aurora, with legendary explorer Ernest Shackleton personally overseeing their rescue. These survivors had endured months of extreme isolation and harsh Antarctic conditions, representing a remarkable tale of human endurance and survival.
