Polar Luminaries

Dedicated to those who have been and remain Members in rank, memory and in spirit.

The “Polar Luminary” classification refers to remarkable individuals whose achievements and accomplishments in polar exploration, research, journalism and activism have enlightened and engaged the world at large, and whose contributions to society will serve as an inspiration to future generations.
