Members of the expedition capturing seals. The first expedition to reach the geographic South Pole was led by the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen. He and four others arrived at the pole on December 14, 1911, five weeks ahead of a British party led by Robert Falcon Scott's Terra Nova Expedition. Amundsen and his team returned safely to their base, and later learned that Scott and his four companions had died on their return journey. Roald Engelbregt Gravning Amundsen (July 16, 1872 - June 18, 1928) was a Norwegian explorer of polar regions. He led the Antarctic expedition (1910-12) to discover the South Pole in December 1911 and was the first expedition leader to reach the North Pole in 1926. Amundsen disappeared in 1928 while on a rescue mission. It is believed that the plane crashed in fog in the Barents Sea, and that he was killed in the crash, or died shortly afterwards. His body was never found.
