Columbus and most scholars of his time were certain the earth was a sphere. The popular conception of the common person, however, did not fully understand or believe this.

∙ 13y agoOne of the good impacts Columbus' voyage produced was the proof that the new navigation instruments worked. No one knew if these tools could be counted on to navigate a long voyage and return the sailors home again. Columbus proved that they could. He laid the foundation for other explorers to seek out new trade routes and lands.

∙ 9y agoChristopher Columbus has been much maligned as an explorer. His greatest feat was his accidental discovery of the Western Hemisphere. He became the lead European sailor to make his accidental discovery. It became a path for Spain's early successes in the New World. That the Spanish crown can say was a positive effect for them. As far as Native American Tribes were concerned, his exploration began the destruction of these Native Americans. It took, however, several centuries for Europeans and their heirs to do this.

Positives and negatives of christopher Columbus trips?
I think the positive is that they found new lands (for them), i.e. America to explore. The negatives are his participation in slavery, the spreading of disease, the dislocation and death of hundreds of thousands of American Indians. The hundreds of lies we were taught growing up about how Columbus was the first to discover America and that relations between Columbus and "Native" Americans was a great symbiotic relationship... Sorry, could not think of too many positives because there are not many.
