John Franklin's expedition ships, including the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror, displayed the White Ensign, which is the naval ensign of the United Kingdom. This flag features a red cross of St. George on a white field, with a Union Jack in the canton. The White Ensign was traditionally used by Royal Navy ships, signifying their official status. Franklin's expedition aimed to navigate the Northwest Passage in the Arctic in the mid-19th century.
