Beschreibung
In 1928, defying Italy's Mussolini and the
entire fascist party, aviator Umberto Nobile, undertook a
daring expedition to the North Pole in Italia, one of
several successful airships he had designed. The tragic
crash of the airship on the ice and search for survivors was
the most extensive in Arctic history, involving seven
nations. Although Nobile and eight crew members survived,
those lost included not only their tragic companions but
searchers, including the famous explorer, Roald Amundsen.
The Italia tragedy was described by The New York Times as
"one of the most astonishing episodes in the history of aviation."
