What discoveries did Henry Hudson make?

Answer 1

Henry Hudson (1570?-1611) discovered the estuary in New York state which bears his name, the Hudson River, and Manhattan Island which became part of the Dutch colony called New Amsterdam. He explored part of Delaware Bay, which is downstream from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Shortly before his death, he sailed north along Baffin Island, through what is now Hudson Strait, and found the large northern Canadian sea now called Hudson Bay. In seeking to find a Northwest Passage across the Arctic Sea, he explored several of the islands and straits in the far north of North America. The icebound winter seas of the region ultimately doomed his efforts.
