Кук, Джеймс
В 1769 году планета Венера должна была проходить через солнечный диск. Для наблюдения за ее прохождением в Тихий океан была снаряжена экспедиция английских ученых во главе с Джозефом Банксом. Экспедиция отправилась на корабле "Индевор", командовал которым Джеймс Кук, первый человек, доказавший, что Южный материк находится не там, где его искали.

CAPTAlN JAMES COOK
James Cook was born on 27 October 1728 at Marton in Yorkshire. A self-educated son of a farm labourer, he first went to sea at the age of 19, working the East Coast coal trade. At 27 he enlisted in the Royal Navy and soon became boatswain on the 60-gun ship Eagle. Four years later he surveyed the St Lawrence River, Newfoundland, in preparation for the capture of Quebec, and for three summers he conducted further surveys of the St Lawrence and the Nova Scotia and Newfoundland coasts.
