Captain's Cook's original mission was to observe the transil of Venus from the vantage point of Tahiti. He was then under orders to try to find the great unknown southern continent, and claim it for Britain. In so doing, he charted the eastern coastline, making extensive notes on the people, flora, fauna and prospective suitability for colonisation, and reported back to England.

The Endeavour was HM Bark Endeavour.There were two reasons by which a ship might be classified as a "bark":1.

At this stage, Cook was still a Lieutenant, and had not yet been promoted to captain.2. A bark could also refer to a ship with a flat bow and square stern.The Endeavour was also an ex-collier, or coal-carrying ship - formerly the Whitby cat collier "Earl of Pembroke". It had been bought by the British navy and converted so it was suitable for exploration and scientific pursuits.

On September 13, 1770, Captain James Cook's ship, the Endeavour, ran aground on the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Australia. The ship suffered significant damage to its hull, which required extensive repairs. The crew managed to free the Endeavour after several days of hard work and navigated to a nearby inlet for repairs, allowing them to continue their journey of exploration.
