Captain James Cook was the most prominent of the explorers of the Pacific. He discovered many Pacific Islands and was the first European to explore Australia's east coast. In one of his journals, Captain Cook wrote that his goal was to go 'farther than any other man has been before me and as far as I think it possible for a man to go.'

    The explorer Captain James Cook
    Learn about the history of the explorer Captain James Cook, and the three major voyages of discovery he embarked upon.
    James Cook was born in Marton, England, in 1728. In his formative years, he worked for his father as a labourer on his farm, but it wasn’t long before the call of the sea enticed him away from dry land. By the age of eighteen he was discovering his sea legs aboard a coal transport ship, traditionally the type of boat that sailors used to learn their trade upon. In 1755 he enlisted as an Able Seaman aboard the ‘Eagle’, and such was his ability as a sailor that he was quickly promoted to Master’s Mate. In 1759, after being promoted once more to the rank of Master, James Cook set about charting the waters in and around Newfoundland, including the St. Lawrence River. He did this meticulously and unerringly for a period of eight years. To get an idea how accurate his charts were, consider that they were still being used in the early part of the twentieth century. It had been suggested that by measuring the transit of Venus (how long it took for Venus to pass over the sun, a rare occurrence), one could work out how far the earth was from the Sun. The aristocracy of England were eager to find this out, and so commissioned a voyage to the South Pacific to carry out this task. Captain James Cook was chosen to command the ‘Endeavour’, and he was also instructed to explore as much of the South Pacific along the way. He set off in 1768, discovering such places as Tahiti, New Zealand and Eastern Australia. Although the voyage was considered a success, the crew suffered a 43% fatality rate, mainly caused by disease. Cook took note of this and implemented a new diet, including as much fresh food as possible.

    James Cook - Scientist, Navigator and Explorer Captain James Cook RN, FRS after whom James Cook University is named. The connection between James Cook and this region is that Cook sailed up the east coast of Australia in 1770, having claimed Terra Australis (Australia) for the Crown of England at Botany Bay on 26 th February, 1770. Indeed, Cooks' ship, the HMS Endeavour (His Majesty's Ship Endeavour ), ran onto the Great Barrier Reef and was nearly lost, and had to be repaired at the mouth of the Endeavour River where the City of Cooktown now stands. Cooktown is about 450 km to the north of Townsville. Endeavour struck the reef and the Endeavour River where it was repaired.
