About this issue:

On May 11, 1926 the dirigible airship Norge started off from Kings Bay, Spitsbergen on its transpolar flight over the Arctic with Amundsen, Nobile and Ellsworth onboard. The airship had been constructed by the engineer Umberto Nobile, a colonel in the Italian Air Force.

They reached the North Pole after at 1:25AM GMT on May 12. The Norwegian, the American and the Italian flag were dropped on to the ice. The flight continued over unknown territory towards Alaska and landed at Teller, Alaska May 14 after a 72-hour flight. One of the important tasks for the expedition was to discover new land. Their course had taken them through an as yet unexplored part of the Arctic and Amundsen could now say with certainty that it contained no large body of land. The last of the great unexplored blank spaces on the map had been eliminated.
