The lecturer disputes the accuracy of information about Peary's journey to the North Pole. He asserts that there is no conclusive evidence to support that Peary did reach the North Pole.
First, the lecturer argues that the decision declared by National Geographic investigation committee does not provide evidence that Peary did reach the North Pole. According to the lecturer the committee members who took the decision were close friends of Peary and some of them funded his trip to the North Pole. Therefore, it possible that the committee member were not telling the truth.
Second, the lecturer argues that the trip of Avery is different than Peary trip to support his arrival at the North pole in 37 days. . He contends that Peary traveled in harsher whether conditions. Moreover, he carried more weight on the sled than Avery did. Therefore, it is possible that he was not able to reach that far in such short period of time.
Finally, the lecturer argues that Peary used a primitive camera with unclear pictures to support his presence at the North pole while taking them. . The author claims that the shadow and the sun position supports the argument that those pictures were taken at the North Pole. However, the lecturer contends, that the shadows in the photographs are not clear and accordingly the position of the sun is not accurate. Moreover, the pictures were very old. As a result, the pictures were fade and blurred. Thus they might have been taken somewhere else than the North Pole
