What year did James Cook explore Antarctica?

Captain James Cook did not actually explore Antarctica itself, as he could not get close enough to the continent.

Pack ice and the solid freezing of the ship's sails prevented him from exploring the region any further. A year later, Cook crossed the Antarctic Circle again, on 30 January 1774, and reaching 71 degrees 10'S. Once again, he was stopped by thick pack ice that prevented further progression. This was the farthest south and closest to the South Pole that any known person had ever been.
