1911 - South Pole expedition - new: Amundsen reaches the South Pole, Antarktis and Scott dies |
Rights-Managed, Editorial |
Antarctica, South Pole, 14-12-1911
The Geographic South Pole is the point where the earths axis of rotation intersects the surface. This is the point usually meant when an unspecified south pole is mentioned. The first humans to reach the Geographic South Pole were Roald Amundsen and his party on December 14, 1911. Amundsen named his camp Polheim. Amundsens main competitor Robert Falcon Scott reached the Pole a month later. On the return trip, Scott and his party of four all died of hunger and extreme cold. There have been many expeditions to arrive at the South Pole by surface transportation. The leaders of some of the first of these are, in order: Amundsen, Scott, Hillary, Fuchs, Havola, Crary, Fiennes. US Admiral Richard Byrd on November 29, 1929 became, by the assistance of his first pilot Bernt Balchen, the first person to fly over the South Pole.
