The reading passage suggests that the mentioned explorer indeed reached the Noth Pole in 1909. The lecturer, on the other hand, refutes this information by stating that Peary's assertions are false.
This material addresses the question of Robert E. Peary's possible expedition to the North Pole. The reading passage suggests that the mentioned explorer indeed reached the Noth Pole in 1909. The lecturer, on the other hand, refutes this information by stating that Peary's assertions are false.
To begin with, the reading passage highlights that Peary's records and tools were examined by the National Geographic Society, which confirmed the truthfulness of the explorer's claims. Meanwhile, the professor casts doubt on this and argues that the relevant experts were Peary's friends, who financed his expedition; moreover the examination itself took only two days, a fact that undermines the objectiveness of such an expertise as well.
Additionally, the article posits that another more recent expedition to the North Pole was conducted in merely the same amount of time than that of Pole's. However, the lecturer advocates a different approach and provides the following details. Namely, she mentions that during the recent expedition the weather was more favourable and that this time dogs were not overloaded by food, since it was delivered by other transportation. So, the conditions of the two expeditions were not the same.
Finally, the article invites attention to the fact that shadows from Peary's photos made presumably in the North Pole seem to correspond exactly to the Sun's anticipated position in that region. This goes counter to the information from the listening passage, according to which, the the quality of the camery used and the photos as well could not be sufficient to support the approach. Thus, the camera had no focus, and the photo was blurred.
