Download Captain James Cook: The Life and Legacy of the Legendary British Explorer Who Discovered Hawaii AudioBook Free
"To boldly go where no man has gone before" was a phrase made popular by Gene Rodenberry in a research fiction environment, but it was certainly the creed of countless explorers through the Age of Discovery and afterwards. In fact, as just lately as the middle-18th century, a young sailor named Wayne Cook determined to look "farther than any man has been before me, but as far as I believe that it is possible for a guy to look." And unlike so numerous others who tried, he did just that. Make meals was a conflict veteran who participated in the People from france & Indian Conflict, but he remains most widely known over 250 years later for sailing thousands of kilometers across a lot of the Pacific, mapping locations, naming new places, and making technological discoveries. Indeed, there are plenty of similarities between Cook's three voyages and the famous "five year mission" of the Venture. Like Captain Picard, Cook's missions were supposed to be peaceful and centered primarily on technological research. His first voyage, which needed him to New Zealand, was meant to transport astronomers to review Venus, and his second voyage also transported several experts tasked with "exploring strange new worlds" that Make meals and his crew encountered. At the same time, Cook also appeared to run across lots of the same problems experienced by explorers across all decades, even the fabled 23rd century.
