Christopher Columbus's goal was to find a new, western route to Asia for trade and exploration. He believed that by doing so, he could acquire wealth and spread Christianity. This promise of increased trade and potential riches convinced King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella to fund his journey.

What happens in 'new moon'?

Isabella "Bella" Marie Swan is thrown an eighteenth birthday party by Alice and Edward Cullen, the vampire she loves, and his family. While unwrapping a gift, she gets a paper cut. And Edward's brother, Jasper, is overwhelmed by her blood's scent (because the Cullen's don't drink human blood and Jasper is their newest vegatarian) and tries to attack Bella. To keep her safe from vampires, Edward breaks up with Bella and he and his family leave Forks, Washington. Bella becomes severly despressed and seeks comfort with Jacob Black, a cheerlful friend who eases her pain over losing Edward. Bella and Jacob develop a close friendship, and Bella soon realizes that thrill-seeking activities, such as riding a motorcycle, help her to remember Edward more clearly. Meanwhile, Bella learns that Jacob is a werewolf and he and his fellow wolves begin protecting Bella from the vampire, Victoria, who seeks revenge for her mate, James, whom the Cullens killed in Twilight (the first book). Meanwhile, a series of strange miscommunications leads Edward to believe that Bella has died. Distraught over her supposed death, Edward flies to Italy to provoke the Volturi, peace-keeping vampires who would be able to kill him. Bella and Edward's sister, Alice, rush to Italy to save Edward, and arrive just in time to stop him. Before they leave Italy, the Volturi tell them that Bella, a human who knows of the existence of vampires, must either be killed or changed into a vampire. After they return to Forks, Edward explains to Bella that he only left to protect her, and she forgives him. The book ends with the Cullens strongly voting in favor of Bella being transformed into a vampire after her graduation, at the very end Edward asks Bella to marry him. Then, this continues later on in Eclipse (the third book).
