Explorers Information
Did you know 350 Years B.C it was ancient Greeks who came up with the idea of Antarctica. They knew about the Arctic named Arktos. The Bear, from the constellation the great bear then decided that in order to balance the world, There should be a similar cold Southern Land mass that was the same but the opposite “And Arktos” opposite the Bear. They never accurately went there. It was just a lucky guess.
In 1773 January, James Cook crosses the Antarctic circle circumnavigated Antarctica’ though he doesn’t sight land, Deposited of rocks seen in icebergs showed that a southern Continent exists, His comment. “I make bold to declare that the World will derive no benefit from it.
On September 1909 Roald Amundsen always dreamed of becoming a great Polar Explorer. His native Norway led the world in Polar Exploration, Thanks to the explores Fridtjof Nansen and Carsten Borch Grevink.
Amundsen hoped the first man to reach the North Pole. To game polar experience, He went on an Belgain expedition to Antarctica in 1896. Many among the crew succumbed to scuroy and madness, teaching the young Norwegian a less in leadership under such extreme conditions.
In 1903, Amundsen led the first expedition to navigate the elusive North West Passage – The sea route from the North Atlantic to the Pacific. During his years in the Arctic, Valuable survival skills were learnt from the Netsilic people.
Amundsen now felt confident enough to tackle the North Pole. But with his departure only a Month away. Amundsens dreams were shattered. On the first of September 1909 , he read in the Newspaper that Doctor Frederick had reached the North Pole.
Amundsen decided to secretly change his plans and head the still – unconquered The South Pole. This would Amundsen in direct competition with the British expedition being led by Robert Falcon Scott.
Amundsen kept his intentions for fear of losing precious funding and support. It was not until he was on his way that Amundsen announced to his men and to the World the true Nature of his Mission – To reach the South Pole.
