Robert Peary (May 6, 1856 - February 20, 1920) was an Admiral in the U.S. Navy who is widely considered to have led the first expedition to reach Earth's North Pole on April 6, 1909. However, he was unable to substantiate his claims of the success of his expedition. This has led some (including Frederick Cook, whose own controversial and generally discounted claim to have reached the North Pole predates Peary's by a year) to suggest Peary's claim of reaching the North Pole was fraudulent.

Peary's claim was widely credited for most of the 20th century, rather than the competing claim by Frederick Cook, who said he got there a year earlier. Both claims were widely debated in newspapers until 1913. The first undisputed explorers to walk on the North Pole ice were documented in 1969 during a British expedition led by British explorer Wally Herbert (see the list of firsts in the Geographic North Pole).

- Robert Edwin Peary, Sr. (May 6, 1856 – February 20, 1920) was an American explorer who claimed to have reached the geographic North Pole with his expedition on April 6, 1909. Peary's claim was widely credited for most of the 20th century, rather than the competing claim by Frederick Cook, who said he got there a year earlier. Both claims were widely debated in newspapers until 1913. Modern historians generally think Cook did not reach the pole. Based on an evaluation of Peary's records by Wally Herbert, also a polar explorer, he concluded in a 1989 book that Peary did not reach the pole, although he may have been as close as . His conclusions have been widely accepted. The first undisputed explorers to walk on the North Pole ice were documented in 1969 during a British expedition led by British explorer Wally Herbert (see the list of firsts in the Geographic North Pole).
