DNA identifies four more crew members of doomed Franklin expedition

Recent DNA analysis has successfully identified four more crew members from Captain Sir John S. Franklin's ill-fated Arctic expedition of 1846. This discovery adds to the ongoing efforts by archaeologists to solve the mystery surrounding the demise of the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror, which became trapped in ice, leading to the deaths of all 129 crew members. The findings were published in two academic papers, contributing to the historical understanding of this tragic voyage.
