yes and no in some ways because he didn't discover anything but he was the first person to realize the the area that Christopher Columbus discovered was actually a new continent not china
He opened the New World to colonization by Europe. Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas in 1492 while trying to find a faster route to India. Hence, for years, the Americas were called the Indies, and Native Americans are sometimes referred to as Indians. The greatest achievement of Christopher Columbus came by accident.

He has a positive side and a negative side. The positive side is that he is smart and very dedicated to this voyage. He is brave because he acts calmly through all the difficult weather changes. The negative side is: as one by one his crew was dying because of Scurvy (the disease that makes your gums swollen making them not able to eat anything therefore they die) he knows the cure to it but he does not share it with anybody. He had honey which is the secret of not getting scurvy, and while he ate honey everyone else was eating biscuits with worms and rats and drinking the urine of rats.-Yasmin Ftes

That he was also motivated by the desire to achieve fame for himself and for his patrons seems clear, while religious motivations may also have played a part in his journeys across the Atlantic Ocean.
