The Corps of Discovery was a group of explorers led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark who were tasked by President Thomas Jefferson to explore and map the newly acquired Louisiana Purchase territory, find a route to the Pacific Ocean, and establish US presence in the region. Their expedition was also aimed at studying the plants, animals, and Indigenous peoples they encountered along the way.
