  • Show Notes for NG History - AIRSLA

    Salomon August Andree, a Swedish mechanical engineer, was born when Arctic exploration was all the rage. Failed attempts to reach the pole by others did not deter Andree. Many thought him crazy for attempting it in a balloon but funding for it came from none other than Alfred Nobel. Unfortunately, he and his two travel companions' harrowing journey met the same fate as their predecessors. Their bodies were found 30 years later.
