Lost Italia crew members found alive after six weeks
Three men of the ill fated Nobile expedition, Dr. Finn Malmgren, Captain Alberto Mariano, and Captain Filippo Zappi, were found alive on ice packs west of Cape Platen by Russian aviator Chukhnovsky from the Krassin. The party had been missing since May 30 and trekked about 43 days toward land. They signaled with flags as a plane circled, while the third member lay on the ice.
