Captain Sir John Franklin's disappearance in the Arctic -- along with two ships and 128 officers and crew -- was a celebrated mystery in the nineteenth century, attracting enormous public attention both in Great Britain and the United States. Some forty expeditions were launched in search of his party, funded both by governments and public subscriptions. In a way, Franklin's expedition was the Apollo 13 of his times -- only, in his times, without radio or modem communications, such potential martyrdom came with painful slowness.

In 1845, British Rear Admiral Sir John Franklin (born April 16, 1786) became the first man to prove the existence of a sea passage through the North American Arctic, though it was blocked by sea ice and unnavigable at the time. His expedition ended tragically, however, after his ships were caught in sea ice between Victoria and King William Islands.
