English: The Crocker Land Expedition was an ill-fated 1913 expedition to investigate Crocker Land, a huge island supposedly sighted by the explorer Robert Peary from the top of Cape Thomas Hubbard in 1906. The island was later shown to have been a mirage.

Español: La expedición Tierra de Crocker (en inglés, Crocker Land Expedition) fue una desafortunada expedición de 1913 para investigar la existencia de la Tierra de Crocker, una supuesta gran isla avistada en 1906 por el explorador estadounidense Robert Peary desde la parte superior del cabo Thomas Hubbard, el extremo septentrional de la isla Axel Heiberg. Más tarde se demostró que la isla no existía y que Peary probablemente sufrió un espejismo conocido como efecto Fata Morgana.
