Best Answer

John Cabot's major goal in 1497 was to sail to the Orient westward, across the Atlantic Ocean. At that time, Europeans were unaware of the existence of the continents of North America and South America. Furthermore, the question whether the Earth was flat, or a sphere, was still controversial.

In one sense, Cabot did not attain his goal, because he did not reach the Orient. In another sense, he did achieve the goal of not falling off the end of the Earth. Accidentally, he discovered the Isle of Newfoundland.
