Entitled: "Cook's ship at anchor off huge iceberg; men in small boat in gathering blocks of ice." Cook's 2nd expedition circumnavigated the globe at an extreme southern latitude, becoming one of the first to cross the Antarctic Circle. In the Antarctic fog, Resolution and Adventure became separated. Furneaux made his way to New Zealand. Cook continued to explore the Antarctic region and almost encountered the mainland of Antarctica, but turned towards Tahiti to resupply his ship. Captain James Cook (November 7, 1728 - February 14, 1779) was an English explorer, navigator and cartographer in the Royal Navy. He mapped lands from New Zealand to Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean in greater detail and on a scale not previously achieved. He surveyed and named features, and recorded islands and coastlines on European maps for the first time. He displayed a combination of seamanship, superior surveying and cartographic skills, physical courage and an ability to lead men in adverse conditions.
