About this listen

 In 1845, two proud ships of the British Royal Navy—the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror—set sail from England. Their mission: to chart the elusive Northwest Passage, a sea route through the Arctic that promised wealth and dominance for those who controlled it. Commanded by the seasoned explorer Sir John Franklin, the expedition was hailed as the height of Victorian ambition. But soon, the ships vanished into ice and legend.
