On April 29, 1770, British explorer Captain James Cook anchored his ship, the Endeavour, at Botany Bay on the east coast of Australia. Although Indigenous Australians had lived there for tens of thousands of years, Cook's landing marked the start of British exploration and eventual colonization. The rich variety of plant life inspired the name "Botany Bay," highlighting the scientific goals of his expedition. This moment is seen as both a major European discovery and a tragic turning point for Australia's Indigenous peoples.
