Vitus Jonassen Bering was a Danish navigator in the service of the Russian Navy. He commanded the first Kamchatka expedition. The goal of this expedition was to determine how far the Siberian mainland went, since much of the world was uncharted and it was unknown whether Asia and North America were connected or whether they were separate land masses.
