To follow-up last-week's post, the Fram expedition was a classic 19th C mission, half #exploration, half #science. Nansen wanted to reach the north pole and thought the (untested) polar ice drift theory would do it. Amazingly, everyone wanted to join this 3 year "fools errand". #Nansen proposed it in 1890 to the Norwegian Geographical Society and was financed by the Crown and private funds. The Fram ("Forward") cost about half the budget and was built in a year.
