EDITORS COMMENTS
"This historic photograph captures the moment of radio contact between Umberto Nobile and his team in Italy during their second polar expedition in 1928. Nobile, an Italian polar explorer, is famously known for leading the first successful airship expedition to the North Pole in 1926 with the Norge. However, his second attempt with the airship Italia ended in disaster when the ship crashed into the ice near Spitsbergen, Norway. In this image, Nobile is seen making contact with his team back in Italy via radio, likely providing updates on their condition and progress. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the determination and innovation of early polar explorers, who braved the harsh Arctic conditions in their quest to expand human knowledge and understanding of the world. Despite the tragic outcome of the Italia expedition, Nobile's achievements in polar exploration paved the way for future expeditions and advancements in technology. This photograph is a testament to the indomitable human spirit and our fascination with the polar regions, which continue to captivate and inspire us to this day."
