Captain Cook's voyage into the uncharted South Pacific was one of the greatest scientific adventures of all time, provided the incentive for the settlement of Australia and New Zealand, and coincided with the birth of sciences including zoology, ethnology and botany, as well as dramatic advances in navigation and astronomy.
