The residues of the explorer were found in Antarctic 66 years after his disappearance – my country

The British explorer bones, who lost more than six decades ago, were found after an accident in Antarctica, along with hundreds of personal effects.

The remains were discovered by an exploratory trip in the Arctic between the rocks displayed by the Dhuban River in January, the British survey in Antarctica Advertise Monday.

The bones were identified as belonging to Dennis Bell, meteorological specialist who died at the age of 25 while working in wiping the dependency of the Fids Islands (BAS).

Bell was killed after falling into an iceberg in the Bay of Admirali on the island of King George off the Antarctica Peninsula on July 26, 1959, but his body was never recovered.

The British organization said that its bones were discovered more than 200 elements, including radio equipment residues, a manual lamp, ski columns, an embossed Ergael, Mora Swedish knife, ski columns, and eponite tubes.

The tested skeleton was sent in the King’s College London, where DNA samples were matched by his brother David Bell and his sister Valery Kelly.

“More than a billion times” is more vulnerable to the unrelated connection.

David, 86, who is now living in Australia, told BBC that he could not believe that his brother had been found after 66 years.

He said, “I have long surrendered to find my brother. It’s great and amazing. I cannot overcome it.”

In a separate statement, he thanked those who helped discover and return his brother’s body.

“The British survey in Antarctica and the British Trust in Antarctica helped us with tremendous support, and with the sensitivity of the Polish team in bringing it home, we helped us reconcile with the tragic loss of our brilliant brother,” said Bass.

The young scientist has contributed to early scientific exploration in the Antarctic and is enriched in its field to this day.

Professor Jane Francis, Bass Director, said that the discovery of Bell’s body was an important moment and pointed to the dangers of his profession.

“Dennis was one of many brave Fids members who contributed to the science and exploration early in Antarctica under very harsh conditions. Although he was lost in 1959, his memory lived among colleagues and in the heritage of polar research. This discovery brings to wandering to a long puzzle of contracts and reminds us of human stories in the history of Antarctic.

David Dennis, the oldest brother, described his “hero (who) he seemed to be able to turn his hand into anything.”

He could serve the gas engines, was a skilled photographer, built a radio from scratch and would spend hours copying the Morse symbol.

Bell worked in a period of work in the Royal Air Force before joining Fids as a meteorologist in 1958. He was stationed on a two -year mission in Admiralyty Bay, a small base in the UK with half of the men of men on King George Island, when he was killed.
