Lady Juliana, Guardian, Justinian, Surprize, Neptune and Scarborough were the 6 ships of the 2nd fleet to Australia
Fleet Command happened in 1999.
It was known as the Great White Fleet.
To completely cripple and destroy the Pacific Fleet. In fact, they would have succeeded had they launched a second wave, however, Admiral Yamamoto felt that surprise was lost and did not want the US Fleet to engage his fleet, as surely his carriers would have been destroyed. Had he lost his carriers, the Japanese would have been unable to win the war effort. It was entirely luck that saved the United States from utter destruction. Our oil fields were untouched, and had they been targeted, the fleet, indeed the entire war effort would have been lost.
there were 6 ships in the second fleet

The Lady Juliana was not in the First Fleet. It was the first of the Second Fleet's ships to arrive in Australia, doing so on 3 June 1790.
The First Fleet was not a fleet of exploration. It was made up of British officers, marines and the hundreds of convicts they guarded, and it was for the purpose of colonising the continent that later became known as Australia.
