The 1931 expedition brought together an international team of scientists aboard the legendary airship LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin to conduct aerial surveys of Franz Josef Land and Novaya Zemlya. The resulting photographs and cartographic data were of such strategic value that the CIA classified them during the Cold War.
