Image description

The America, a non-rigid airship built by Mutin Godard in France for Walter Wellman’s attempt to reach the North Pole by air. It was delivered to Spitzbergen on 8 July 1906 where Wellman and his team attempted to erect it. Their efforts met with failure when the engines fell apart. In September, the America was dismantled and returned by ship to France.
