”Inside the lining on the Frænkels jacket from the white island are great intorkade dark spots,” writes Uusma, the author of the book ”the Expedition – my love story” about the failed expedition to the Arctic, on Instagram.

Then the three explorers wrecked on white island for over 120 years ago, their fate has been a mystery. If the spots in the fabric turns out to be blood, it might be a piece of the puzzle as to why they died.

the Samples have now been sent to a laboratory in Rotterdam to be further investigated. Uusmas research is done in cooperation with the Grenna museum.
