Roald Engelbregt Gravning Amundsen
16th July 1872
Norwegian who visited South Pole & North Pole.
It is difficult to know that there is no death
date because he disappeared on 18 June 1928 (aged
55) in Barents Sea
Amundsen disappeared on 18 June 1928 while flying
on a rescue mission in the Arctic.
It is very good to know that in
2004 and in late August 2009, the Royal Norwegian
Navy used the unmanned submarine Hugin 1000 to
search for the wreckage of Amundsen's plane. They
found nothing from the Amundsen flight.
