Dr. Malmgren...
:19:06
there's a message, sir,
from Tromso Institute.
:19:12
Tromso Institute reports
the high-pressure area...
:19:15
is becoming unstable.
:19:16
But they also say that the wind should hold
until we reach the Pole.
:19:20
Good.
:19:24
Dense cloud, 3,000 feet,
forming on horizon to starboard.
:19:30
- 88 degrees, 10 minutes north, General.
- 44 miles to the pole.
:19:35
There. It looks like
you're very lucky, General.
:19:39
Put on your furs, gentlemen.
:19:44
- Troiani, go down to 400 meters.
- Yes, sir.
:19:47
- Captain Zappi.
- Yes, sir?
:19:51
- Get the anchor lines ready.
- Yes, sir. Out mooring ropes.
:19:54
Biagi, we're approaching the Pole.
All engines minimum speed.
:19:58
Troiani, prepare the basket for lowering.
:20:01
- All right.
- Ahoy in the keelson.
:20:04
Stand by the anchor lines.
:20:08
- Stop starboard engine.
- Get ready to lower the basket!
:20:12
Landing will be difficult.
:20:14
Wind is about 35 knots.
:20:18
The anchor lines are ready, General.
The men are standing by.
:20:23
- Hold at 450 feet.
- Very well, sir.
:20:27
Dr. Malmgren, circle, minimum radius.
:20:31
- Yes, sir.
- We're going down.
:20:32
- That's what we came here for.
- Are we close?
:20:37
- Biagi.
- Sir?
:20:38
When we've circled,
transmit that we're at the Pole.
:20:43
May I tell the crew?
:20:45
Boys!
:20:47
Boys, we made it!
:20:50
Viva I'Italia!
:20:53
Viva I'Italia!
:20:55
Viva!
