DOCUMENTARY
The world's first expedition to the Arctic was in 1845. Some 129 men led by British explorer John Franklin set off on two ships to navigate the Northwest Passage, a sea lane between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans through the Arctic Ocean. But the excitement of this quest soon turned to concern and intrigue, when the ships vanished without a trace. Now, a team of explorers sets out to trace Franklin's route. Their adventure will be documented in Lost in the Arctic, the latest episode in National Geographic's Explorer series, which will stream on Disney+ and Hulu from August 25.
