The expedition aimed to chart the last unexplored regions of the North American Arctic and find the fabled Northwest Passage, a water route that would connect Europe and Asia through the top of Canada. The book describes how Sir John Franklin and his crew set off on their journey with two ships, HMS Erebus and HMS Terror, but they never returned home. The ships were found abandoned near King William Island in 2014, and the story of what happened to them has become one of the most enduring mysteries in polar history. The book explores the historical context of the expedition, including the political and scientific motivations behind it, and examines the lives of the men who embarked on it. It also delves into the technological advancements that made the journey possible and the challenges faced by the crew during their time at sea. The plot of the book revolves around the idea that technology evolution is essential for human survival and understanding its process is crucial for our survival.
Целью экспедиции было составить карту последних неисследованных районов Североамериканской Арктики и найти легендарный Северо-Западный проход, водный маршрут, который соединит Европу и Азию через вершину Канады. В книге описывается, как сэр Джон Франклин и его команда отправились в своё путешествие с двумя кораблями, «HMS Erebus» и «HMS Terror», но домой они так и не вернулись. Корабли были найдены брошенными недалеко от острова Кинг-Уильям в 2014 году, а история о том, что с ними произошло, стала одной из самых непреходящих загадок в полярной истории. Книга исследует исторический контекст экспедиции, включая политические и научные мотивы, стоящие за ней, и рассматривает жизнь мужчин, которые приступили к ней. Он также углубляется в технологические достижения, которые сделали путешествие возможным, и проблемы, с которыми сталкивается экипаж во время пребывания в море. Сюжет книги вращается вокруг идеи о том, что эволюция технологий необходима для выживания человека, а понимание ее процесса имеет решающее значение для нашего выживания.

この遠征の目的は、北米北極の最後の未知の地域を地図化し、カナダの頂上をヨーロッパとアジアを結ぶ伝説的な北西航路を見つけることでした。この本では、ジョン・フランクリン卿とその乗組員が2隻の船、HMSエレバスとHMSテロと共に旅立ったが、彼らは帰国しなかった。船は2014にキングウィリアム島の近くで放棄されたことが発見され、彼らに起こったことの物語は極地史上最も永続的な謎の一つとなっています。この本は、その背後にある政治的動機や科学的動機を含む遠征の歴史的文脈を探り、それに着手した男性の生活を調べます。それはまた、旅を可能にした技術の進歩と、海にいる間に乗組員が直面する課題を掘り下げます。この本のプロットは、テクノロジーの進化は人間の生存に不可欠であり、そのプロセスを理解することは私たちの生存にとって重要であるという考えを中心に展開しています。
