EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exhilarating moment during the Jeannette Expedition (1879-1881) when George De Long and his team, consisting of a mix of Americans and Inuit, made a groundbreaking discovery about the Arctic Sea ice. De Long, an intrepid explorer from the United States, was determined to prove that the Arctic ice was not stationary, as previously believed, but was instead moved by ocean currents. In this image, De Long is seen fearlessly leading his team down a steep, icy slope on sledges, accompanied by his loyal team of dogs. The team's canoe can be seen at the bottom of the hill, ready to be loaded with their findings. The determination and focus in their eyes reflect the unyielding spirit of exploration and scientific inquiry that characterized this historic expedition. The Jeannette Expedition is a testament to the human spirit of discovery and the relentless pursuit of knowledge. De Long's team faced numerous challenges during their journey, including being trapped in the Arctic ice for over a year, but they persevered and made significant contributions to our understanding of the Arctic region. This photograph is a powerful reminder of their achievements and the spirit of adventure that continues to inspire us today.
