Central and Eastern Europe
Roald Amundsen disappears on a rescue flight from Tromso
1928 · Troms?, Norway
Tromso becomes the point where polar mastery turns into disappearance, and rescue itself becomes the final risk.
Amundsen keeps the event human because public fame disappears here into weather, risk, and the refusal to let another expedition vanish alone.
