Good morning, class. Before we begin today, I would like to address an issue that one of you reminded me of after the last lecture.
As you may recall, last time I mentioned that Robert E. Pierre was the first person to reach the North Pole. What I neglected to mention was the controversy around Pierres pioneering acplishment. In 1910, a mittee of the national geographical society examined Comeydore Pierres claim to have reached the North Pole on April 6th 1909 and found no reason to doubt him. This judgment was actually confirmed by a mittee of the US congress in 1911. Nevertheless, Pierres claim was surrounded by controversy. This was largely due to the peting claim of Doctor Frederic Cook who told the world he had reached the Pole a four-year earlier. Over the decades Pierre was given the benefit of the doubt, but critics persisted in raising questions about his navigation and the distances he claimed to have covered. So the Navigation Foundation spent an additional 12 months of exhaustive examination of documents relating to Pierres polar expedition. The documents supported Pierres claims about the distances he covered. After also conducting an extensive puter analysis of photos taken by Pierre at the pole, they concluded that Pierre and his panions did in fact reach the near vicinity of the North Pole on April 6th, 1909.
OK, today were going to talk about exploration of the opposite end of the world. I assume you all read chapter 3 in our text and are now familiar with the names: Emerson and Scott.
