John McDouall Stuart first explored when he was employed as a draughtsman by Captain Charles Sturt on an expedition into the desert interior. This journey was for the purpose of solving the mystery of whether or not there was an inland sea. Sturt hoped to find the inland sea which had eluded him since he first followed the Murray River in the late 1820s. All they found was Sturt's Stony Desert and the Simpson Desert.
