EDITORS COMMENTS
On the front cover of The Sphere magazine, dated April 21, 1908, an iconic image of polar exploration history unfolds. Dr. Frederick A. Cook, an American explorer, is captured in the moment as he sets up his camera equipment to document the United States' flag planted at the North Pole. Accompanied by his two Eskimo companions, Etukishook and Ahwelsh, Cook's team made history with their claim of reaching the North Pole on April 21, 1908. However, Cook's discovery was met with controversy as he was unable to produce convincing proof, and his claim is not widely accepted in the scientific community. The image, painted by Fortunino Matania, depicts the team in front of an igloo, with the stars shining above and the American flag proudly displayed against the snowy backdrop. This photograph, a testament to the determination and courage of Cook and his team, remains a significant piece of polar exploration history.
