The first surface vessel to reach the North Pole was the Russian nuclear-powered icebreaker Arktika
Sailing from Murmansk, it broke its way through the ice, and reached the North Pole on August 17, 1977.
Arktika is a Nenets word meaning 'End of the Earth'. A rather apt name.

How does a latitude position affect water?
The latitude position affects water in several ways. It influences the distribution of temperature, with water closer to the equator being warmer and water closer to the poles being colder. It also affects the ocean currents, with warm currents flowing from the equator towards the poles and cold currents flowing from the poles towards the equator. Additionally, latitude impacts the amount of sunlight and precipitation that different regions receive, which in turn affects the amount of water available.
