On January 24, 1895, a boat was put ashore at Cape Adare at the northern extremity of Victoria Land with six men including Bull, Borchgrevink, Kristensen and Tunzelmann. The party performed the first confirmed landing on the continent of Antarctica, exactly who went ashore first was never cleared as all members claimed the honor (possibly British-American sealer John Davis had already made a landing on the Antarctic Peninsula on February 7, 1821, this claim can, however, not be confirmed)., Norska Nasjonalbiblioteket-National Library of Norway (in Norwegian), accessdate=2010-12-10, Norsk biografisk leksikon-Norwegian Biografical encyclopedia (in Norwegian), accessdate=2010-12-10, South-Pole.com, An Antarctic Timeline, accessdate=2010-12-10, Antarctic-Circle.org, Antarctic voyages and expeditions, accessdate=2010-12-10, New Zealand History online, Ministry for Culture and Heritage, accessdate=2010-12-10 , Norway's Forgotten Explorer.org, Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage, accessdate=2010-12-10 , Antarctica.org, Antarctic History, accessdate=2010-12-10
