① Science is not new to the idea of controversy and fraud such as in the case of the Piltdown Man. The history of the exploration of the North Pole includes another case of this nature. ② The two main players in this story are Robert Peary, a famous explorer in the early 20th century, and Dr. Frederick Cook, another explorer who frequently accompanied Peary on his expeditions. ③ Both men began their own quests to reach the North Pole in the early 1900s. ④ His claim is recorded in his diary: \"With a step, it was possible to go from one part of the globe to the opposite side. . . . north, east, and west had vanished. ⑤ It was south in every direction.\" Cook then became lost in the Arctic for almost a year.
