In Part 1 of our series on polar explorer Fridtjof Nansen, we cover Nansen's early years, including a sealing expedition to the Arctic, and his success as a scientist. We then move on to his planning of his Greenland Expedition in 1888 - where Nansen will try and become the first man to ever cross the world's biggest island.
