Henry Hudson's Day

They stayed at the Ocean for the winter where they set up Fort Clatsop. After the winter, they

Henry Hudson was an English explorer, who sailed along the North East coast of North American. His early life is unknown, for there is not even a record of the year he was born. His final days are a mystery, after his mutinous crew set him adrift in the bay that bears his name, June 1611. It is believed that he could have been the grandson of a London alderman who helped found the Muscovy Company, which is a trading company. Hudson took four voyages beginning in 1607 and continued to1611, making claims for the English and the Dutch. At one point, he was arrested for working with the Dutch, because in those days working for another country was considered treason. Hudson was also known as the grandfather of the English whaling

My explorer Henry Hudson should be displayed as a hero in your museum exhibit. I'm gonna give you three reasons why you would consider him as a hero. And also be displayed in the museum.

By day the crew complied, but at night they sailed west and finally landed near Long Island, New York, where the vessel was seized by U.S. authorities.

This company hired an English explorer, Henry Hudson, to seek great riches.  He sailed into the Delaware Bay and New York Bay in 1609 and then ascended the Hudson River.  He filed a Dutch claim to a wooded and watered area.  The Dutch West India Company was less powerful than the Dutch East India Company, and was based in the Caribbean.  It was more interested in raiding than trading.

The introduction of the Dutch to North America happened by chance, as they were attempting to locate a passage to Asia. Henry Hudson, an English sea captain working for the Dutch came across the island of Manhattan in 1609 and sailed north on a river for 150 miles, later the Dutch established a trading post along this river called Fort Nassau, later Fort Orange, North America, the inclusion of New Amsterdam into the Dutch trading empire, as its capital allowed them to solidify their standing as a trading entity. This allowed the Native

There is no doubt that the fight over Columbus Day as brought Americans to the thought whether Columbus Day should still be celebrated or should it be changed to Indigenous people day to celebrate the people that were hear before Columbus. There are many arguments on both sides like America encourages diversity and by celebrating Columbus Day it is celebrating diversity. Or on the other hand he was motivated by greed for slaves and gold. It is a tossup because why should we be celebrating a man that enslaved the indigenous people in America when he arrived but, he was a man of his times and it seemed right to him. You see were this is going, but this will give you a look into the perspectives of the people fighting for their side.

Vitus Jonassen Bering, born in 1681 in Denmark, was a cartographer and explorer for Russia. After one of his voyages, he joined the naval fleet of Tsar Peter I The Great. The Tsar appointed him to find out whether or not North America and Russia share a border because Russia was interested in both colonization in North America and in finding a northeast passage to China around Siberia. He set sail from the Siberian peninsula of Kamchatka, and though bad weather and severe lack of food prevented thorough observation, he concluded that North America and Russia were not connected by land. Vitus Bering later decided to take a second voyage. He set sail from Kamchatka on the St. Peter with Aleksey Chirikov in the St. Paul. The ships separated in

On the date of September 7th, 1909, the New York Times had an article on the front page that stated “Peary Discovers the North Pole after eight trials in 23 years”. Many people had tried to achieve this goal of exploring the north pole and reaching it, but had all failed. However, a week earlier, the New York Herald had printed its own front-page headline: “The North Pole is Discovered by Dr. Frederick A. Cook.” Cook is an American explorer who had seemingly returned from being dead. He was said to have stayed more than a year in the Arctic and had claimed he reached the pole in April 1908 which was exactly a full year before Peary had ever reached the North Pole.

Robert Peary set off to the North Pole on April 6, 1909. He left New York City on the Roosevelt along with 23 men to help him. The Roosevelt sail to Ellesmere Island, Canada, where the crew stayed

This is the time to fight! I have returned from attending a speech in Richmond from which I have received information on reasons to believe that it is the time to fight.

The expedition I chose to investigate was S. A. Andrée's Arctic Balloon Expedition of 1897. S. A. Andrée, the first Swedish balloonist, proposed a voyage by hydrogen balloon from Svalbard to either Russia or Canada, which was to pass, straight over the North Pole on the way. Andrée ignored many early signs of the dangers associated with his balloon plan. Being able to steer the balloon to some extent was essential for a safe journey, and there was

They then went to Ellesmere Island by ship in 1908. From there, Peary, Henson, four Eskimos, and 38 sled-pulling dogs set out across the icy Arctic. After years of preparation and days of traveling through the frigid wilderness, they finally reached close to their destination. On April 6, 1909, they traveled through miles of ice until they finally

HMS Erebus and HMS Terror were abandoned during the attempt to complete the northwest passage. In paragraph 2 the text says: “On Sunday, a team from the Arctic Research Foundation guided a small, remote vehicle into the sunken ship. It captured images that give a look at sea life almost 170 years ago.” The Northwest Passage was stopped.heavy sea ice ended the voyage.

Other attempts were made to find the North Pole, but Matthew Henson, and Robert Peary’s expedition was the first documented trip. Earlier in 1909, Ernest Shackleton led a voyage to try and find the North Pole, but ended up being unsuccessful (Schlager and Lauer). Both of the guys loved to explore, find new things, and make new things as well. As you can tell, they really wanted to discover this new area of the earth.
