“Roald Amundsen – Lincoln Ellsworths flyveekspedisjon 1925″ is a new DVD release of film footage from the nearly disastrous 1925 aeroplane expedition led by Norwegian polar hero Roald Amundsen. Financed by american businessman Lincoln Ellsworth, who also was a member of the expedition, the aeroplanes were registered as N24 and N25 and subsequently equipped for polar flights. They took off from King´s Bay in Svalbard on May 21st in an attempt to carry out the first transpolar flight of the North Pole, in order to establish once and for all whether there was in fact land in the area.
The Norvegia expedition of 1929-30 was the third in a series of expeditions organized by Consul Lars Christensen of Sandefjord for the purpose of conducting practical scientific research in Antarctica. Its task was, in addition to carrying out certain work related to whaling, to establish a depot on Bouvet Island and to take aerial photographs of this new Norwegian possession. The expedition would then attempt to reach new land in the vast and unknown areas between Enderby Land and the Weddell Sea.
