On leading and managing the expedition with Roald Amundsen to the South Pole; Being engaged with discovering new things where humans have not been before, or there are no registrations of any humans being there!
You know, there is always a competition about coming longest away from the ordinary landscapes, and being the best actor in national and in international competitions, and we determine what to do when we are here. And being the best in quality manners and doing the most quantities of many things, that are the ways to get success when we are here, and we are just being visible and invisible on the earth, and many people are in the last category mentioned here.
Roald Engelbregt Gravning Amundsen was a Norwegian polar explorers and explorers. He is most known for leading the first expedition which reached the geographical South Pole point in December 1911, and for having sailed the Northwest Passage for the first time, and he did it in 1903. And there was a competition among Amundsen and a guy called for Scott for being the first person reaching the South Pole, where even Monica Kristensen has been! And Monica Kristensen is one of the best Pole researcher on the things we discover different places, and how we are travelling to these places. And anything can be put research on, on all kinds of details and large things.
And the fight of reaching the South Pole first, was led by Amundsen and Scott, and Amundsen was there first in December 1911, while Scott and his men were there in January 1912. And Scott was a naval officer and a polar explorer, and he led two expeditions to Antarctica, and he did not manage to be there before Amundsen, but Scott is most known for an expedition to the South Pole, and they came there in January 1912, just a little bit more than a month after Amundsen was there. So, the expedition to Scott did not manage to get home, and he was himself being British, and they died on way back to where they started, and they died of hunger, being tired, and of cold temperatures in the weather.
Roald Amundsen was celebrated as professor Fridtjof Nansen as a polar hero in Norway, and when Amundsen tried to reach the South Pole he used 4 sleds and 52 dogs, and hence many were involved in the expeditions, and research is about knowing something, and what we are knowing is either false or correct, and we determine our attitudes, intentions and behavior, and we are best where we are to any times anywhere while we are here, and we ignore things we do not like.
So, Roald Amundsen made his expedition for the South Pole together with four other expedition members, and these were: Helmer Hanssen, Olav Bjaaland, Oscar Wisting and Sverre Hassel, and they reached the South Pole on 14 December 1911, and they took up a tent and a Norwegian flag where the point South Pole really is and is surronded by other snow and ice and landscape. And the tent is just being destroyed slowly by the weather and the wind. Ander the other expedition made by Robert Falcon Scott, was consisting of five members with the inclusion of Scott in these five, and they reached the South Pole on 17 January 1912, and that was 5 weeks after Amundsen, and Amundsen made the victory for being first in the world at the South Pole!
And so to the North Pole! There have been several debates about who reached the North Pole first, but many mean that Cook and Peary did it in 1908 and in 1909. But Amundsen know this, and he had another plan for doing it, and he took a little plane to reach Arctic Ocean to Alaska to investigate the last great uncharted area there, and hence he was first as doing investigations here where the North Pole is, and there is not any West Pole and East Pole in the world, and hence the competition has been around the South Pole and the North Pole.
And Amundsen visited the North Pole in 1925 and in 1926, and he took some flying boats and airships to reach the places where he wanted to come. But he died during these journeys, and hence he never went alive back again to the place where he came from in Norway.
