HMS Challenger embarked from Portsmouth on 21 December 1872 under the direction of the Scottish professor Charles Wyville Thomson and his Canadian-born assistant and naturalist John Murray. This was the first time that physicists, chemists and biologists collaborated with expert navigators to map the sea. During the four-year voyage they circumnavigated the globe, travelling 69,0000 nautical miles across the Atlantic, Pacific and Antarctic oceans. They sounded the ocean bottom to a depth of 26,850 feet, discovered 715 new genera and 4,717 new species of ocean life forms, including many deep-sea specimens. Among their discoveries were many of the fish and marine creatures thought at that time to be of legend. Numerous specimens from the voyage are on view in one of the largest collections in the Natural History Museum. The fifty-volume, 29,500-page, report took twenty-three years to compile and publish.(Qty: 44)
