twenty peiple sailed with him.
James Cook only travelled to New Zealand and Australia once.
Captain Cook did not discover any countries. He explored many, including New Zealand and Australia, and he discovered and named the Hawaiian Islands, which he originall called the Sandwich islands. He did not discover any countries.
None. Captain Cook did not carry convicts. His was a mission of exploration and discovery. Cook was not part of the First Fleet of convicts to Australia. Cook's only part in the passage of convicts was to recommend Botany Bay as a suitable site for a penal colony, but he died nine years before the First Fleet arrived.
Lieutenant James Cook (not yet a captain) took less than two years to reach Australia from England. On the way, he spent some time observing the transit of Venus from Tahiti, and also circumnavigating the main islands of New Zealand.
James Cook was not a captain, but a lieutenant, when he claimed the eastern coast of Australia. He did not discover the continent, as there were many other explorers who came to the land first. He claimed the eastern coast, excluding Van Diemen's Land (now Tasmania), in August 1770.
Captain Cook did not travel directly to Australia. He left Plymouth, England, in August 1768 and reached Australia in April 1770. On the way, he stopped at Tahiti to observe the transit of Venus (his main mission), then stopped at New Zealand for many months of exploration and mapping before seeking the "unknown continent" further west.
Captain Cook lived in Whitby while he was an apprentice in ship building. He also sailed from Whitby when he discovered many parts of the world, including Hawaii and Australia.
He wasn't; this is a common misconception. If you are referring to Cook's exploration of Australia, many Dutch and Portuguese explorers named points along Australia's coastline long before Cook ever arrived. Cook was not even the first Englishman, being preceded some 80 years earlier by William Dampier.
Captain James Cook had just one wife: Elizabeth (nee Batts).
he had 7 siblings
When Bradman was captain, Australia won 15 test matches.
The British did not discover Australia. Australia was 'officially' discovered by the Dutch in 1606. The first British ship to land on Australia's shores only did so in 1688, and this was William Dampier. It is likely that the question refers to Lieutenant James Cook, who was not yet a captain when he charted Australia's eastern coastline. Cook is wrongly credited with discovering Australia, as he is the one who claimed the east coast for Great Britain.
