Thursday 29th September, 2016

A new study by University of Glasgow researchers may give further insight to the deaths of all 129 crew of the ill-fated “Franklin Expedition” of 1845 which was lost in the Canadian Arctic as it attempted to navigate the final link in the fabled Northwest Passage in HMS Erebus and Terror.

The University of Glasgow researchers include the School's own Professor Adrian Bowman, as well as Professor Keith Millar, Professor Richard Welbury and Mr William Battersby.
