Charles Sturt discovered the Darling River in Australia in 1828 during his exploration of the Murray-Darling river system. He also played a key role in mapping areas of central Australia and helped to further knowledge of the continent's interior.
Major Thomas Mitchell explored and mapped large parts of southeastern Australia, discovering several rivers including the Darling River and the Murray River. Charles Sturt explored the inland regions of Australia, successfully navigating the Murray and Darling Rivers, and discovering the Sturt Desert Pea plant.
No. Charles Sturt's early expeditions were very successful. He discovered and named the Darling River. He also discovered where the inland rivers flowed, as the Lachlan River flowed into the Murrumbidgee River and the Murrumbidgee flowed into the Murray, which then was found to empty into the Southern Ocean. This discovery opened up much of inland New South Wales for settlement, and also led to the colonisation of South Australia. However, Sturt was certain there must be an inland sea, and he explored through the inland deserts in an attempt to find it. He failed to find the object of his search, as no inland sea exists, but he helped map more of Australia's interior.
Charles Sturt was a trained surveyor. If not exploring, he would have continued surveying new land for roads and cities.
