Extractions: Mange straffefanger flygtede under arbejdet, da de troede at civilisationen ventede dem lige om hjørnet. Man troede, på grund af de mange floder som løb ind i landet fra NSW, endvidere at der måtte findes et stort hav eller sø i centrum af kontinentet. Specielt tørken, men også fjendtlige aborigier, gjorde at mange vendte tilbage til kolonierne, ligesom mange officielle ekspeditioner ikke blev gennemført. Først i 1844 bevises det endeligt, at der ikke er andet end sand og hede i australiens midte. George Bass George Bass kortlægger i årene 1797-98 kysten syd for Sydney til ca. der hvor Melbourne idag ligger og sammen med Matthew Flinders sejler han efterfølgende rundt om Van Diemens land, for at fastslå om der er tale om en ø. Flinders sejler i 1802 hele vejen rundt om New Holland og foreslår i sin bog fra 1814, at man ændrer kontinentets navn til Australien. Charles Sturt (1795-1869) Som mange af de andre store opdagelsesrejsende og eventyrere på den tid, har Sturt en militær baggrund. Han udforsker gennem sit arbejde for guvernøren i Sydney, River Murray og Darling River og foretager sin første rigtige opdagelsesrejse i 1828-30 op ad Macquarie River til der hvor den møder Darling River, for herefter at vende tilbage til Sydney. I 1844 tager han fra Adelaide med 15 mand, med det formål at afklare spørgsmålet om en indsø. På grund af varmen, vender han om 250 km. fra centrum, men viser at der ikke findes vand i nogen overfladisk form.

Extractions: HISTORICAL TIMELINE Compiled by Anne Mavric August 26th - The "Endeavour" sailed from Plymouth on her eventful voyage, the Commander, First Lieutenant James Cook (1728-1779) Mariner, accompanied by Zachary Hicks - Second Lieutenant, John Gore - Third Lieutenant, Robert Molineaux - Master and the English botanist Joseph Banks (1743-1820). Cook, son of a farm labourer, was born at Marton-in-Cleveland, Yorkshire, left school at 13, and later became a deckhand in the Baltic and coastal trade, transferring to the Royal Navy as an able seaman in 1755. After only two years he had achieved the rank of Master. In 1758 in the "Pembroke" and later "Northumberland" , he took part in survey work on the Canadian east coast and the action against the French. His map making skills and detailed report of a solar eclipse in 1766 made him favourably known to the Royal Society which invited him through the Admiralty, to take command of a voyage of scientific observation and exploration in the Pacific. The objectives of the expedition, which had been organised by the Royal Society of London and the Admiralty were:

Extractions: Northern Territory The Northern Territory is the most barren and least populated state of Australia, for many people it is the "real" Australia, for it presents two different faces: the vast, arid Red Centre, best known for the famous Uluru (Ayers Rock) and the monsoonal Top End identified by the world heritage Kakadu National Park. Northern Territory visitors are confronted with meteorite craters, eerie canyons, lost valleys of palms, hot springs, raging waterfalls and home exuberant Australian outback festivities.

Extractions: (Charles Sturt - Aus einer Ansprache an die Kolonisten von Adelaide) Fünfzehn Jahre Später träumte Sturt noch immer davon, den legendären Binnensee zu entdecken. Dieser Gedanke ließ ihn einfach nicht zur Ruhe kommen und so unternahm Sturt, mittlerweile 49 Jahre alt geworden, einen weiteren Vorstoß in das Zentrum Australiens. Sollte er wirklich recht behalten? Sturt verließ zusammen mit 15 Männern (zusammen mit dem später bekannt gewordenen John McDouall Stuart als Zeichner) im August 1844 Adelaide, ausgestattet mit 11 Pferden, 200 Schafen, 30 Ochsen, vier Wagen und einen zerlegten Boot. Es war die letzte Expedition von Charles Sturt und von da an glaubte niemand mehr an die Existenz eines riesigen Süßwassermeeres. Obwohl Captain Sturt sein Hauptziel nicht erreichte, wird er häufig als der "Vater der Erforschung Australiens" bezeichnet. Kein anderer hat so weitreichende und unterschiedliche Gebiete in Australien erforscht wie er.

Extractions: A BRIEF HISTORY OF AUSTRALIA By Tim Lambert The Australian Aborigines The Aborigines are believed to have arrived in Australia about 40,000 BC during an ice age when Australia was connected to Asia by a land bridge. Tasmania was cut off from Australia around 8,000 BC when the last ice age ended and sea level rose. The Aborigines were a hunter-gatherer society. However dingoes were domesticated by Aborigines about 4000-3,000 BC. The Aborigines hunted with wooden spears and sometimes with stone or bone blades. They also used nets. As well as hunting mammals they hunted reptiles such as snakes and lizards. Aborigines also ate insects and eggs. They also hunted birds such as ducks, parrots, cockatoos and emus. Aborigines dug up roots and collected fruits and nuts. Although European settlers regarded them as primitive in fact Aborigines survived in Australia for tens of thousands of years and they had a rich culture. The First Convicts Transported To Australia Contact with Europeans was, of course, a disaster for the Aborigines. It began in 1770 when Captain Cook arrived in Botany Bay. He claimed the whole of Australia (or New South Wales) for Britain. To Cook and his contemporaries Australia was terra nullius or empty land (ignoring the Aborigines who lived there!). Life was hard for ordinary people in the 18th century and punishments for even minor crimes were severe. In England you could be hanged for more than 200 different offences. However as an alternative to hanging prisoners were sometimes sentenced to transportation. In the 18th century convicts were transported to Virginia and Maryland in what is now the USA. Transportation was a relatively humane punishment. At any rate it was better than hanging!
