1 MARITIME HISTORY
2 Benjamin Franklin ( ) Published the 1 st map of the Gulf Stream To increase postal speed To gain advantage in war time
3 Franklin s Gulf Stream Map
4 1761 John Harrison Working class carpenter who solved the longitude problem by inventing the 1st clock accurate at sea called the Chronometer.
5 Captain James Cook Great navigator & discoverer From England 3 noteworthy expeditions
6 Cook s 1 st Voyage: The Endeavour Circumnavigated the globe Built an observatory in Tahiti to document the Transit of Venus. Disproved the theory of a giant continent between Tahiti & New Zealand.
7 Cook s 2 nd Voyage: The Resolution Less than 1% fatality due to his new dietary reforms. Tried to prove the existence of Antarctica, but could not land there. Was the 1 st to circle Antarctica.
8 Cook s 3 rd Voyage: The Discovery Attempted to find a Northwest Passage from the Pacific to the Atlantic, but failed. Rediscovered the Hawaiian islands. Murdered by natives in Hawaii.
9 HMS BEAGLE ( ) Mission was to map the coastline of South America & take oceanographic measurements. Charles Darwin categorized 1000s of species in the Galapagos Islands
10 Matthew Maury ( ) The Father of Oceanography Born in Fredricksburg, VA. Joined the USN at age 19 Developed maps of wind & current patterns. Professor of Meteorology at VMI Published The Physical Geography of the Sea, in 1855 called the 1 st modern oceanography textbook
11 Challenger Expedition st modern, deep-ocean, global sampling expedition. Scientists studied the deep ocean s water chemistry, sea floor deposits & distribution of organic life. Measured the depth of the Marianas Trench (8,185m). Classified 4,717 new marine species.
12 Glomar Challenger
13 Fridtjof Nansen ( ) 1895: Designed a boat named the Fram capable of withstanding ice pressure. Mapped the Arctic ocean by purposely getting frozen into sea ice & drifting across the ocean for 3 years. Invented the Nansen bottle for water sampling.
14 The Fram
15 1914 Ernest Shackleton Skilled captain who s life goal was to cross Antarctica His ship the Endurance was frozen into sea ice & crushed. He & his crew spent 15 months on Antarctica before they got home - no one died.
16 Jacques Cousteau ( ) Most famous undersea explorer in the world. Invented SCUBA Pioneered unaided deep sea diving & underwater photography. Filmed over 150 TV shows & wrote over 50 books. Cousteau Foundation was founded in 1973.
17 SYLVIA EARLE (1935- ) Explorer in Residence at the National Geographic Society First female chief scientist of NOAA Called Her Deepness b/c she is the deepest diver in the world right now Has led 70 expeditions & has logged over 6,500 hours underwater
18 ROBERT BALLARD (1942- ) One of the most well known of the world's deep-sea explorers. Discovered the sunken Titanic w/ deep sea submersibles. Geographic oceanographer
