Was the northwest passage even real?

Yes/ no. There is no northwest passage that has been passable , but because of melting ice a passage has opened through the Arctic Ocean since 2000 and summer sea ice coverage has declined and the Northwest Passage is ice free. This has been one of the greatest challenges because of the icebergs and the polar ice cap for early ships. Many explorers drowned or got caught in the icy waters and became locked in the ice. In 1905 Amundsen successfully navigated the middle section of the passage. It took him 3 years to reach Nome, Alaska. Today, if a passage could be opened to commercial traffic it would mean vast economic significance in trade, natural resources, and transportation.
