An interesting question about navigators. 20

1.In the Ming Dynasty, Lu Zhi Zheng He led a huge fleet of long-distance ships on seven voyages, visiting many countries in the western Pacific and Indian Oceans, and deepening China's friendly relations with Southeast Asia and East Africa. At one point, the fleet was suddenly attacked by pirate interceptors.

Zheng He calmly commanded his soldiers to defeat the pirates, killing more than 5,000 people, burning ten pirate ships, capturing seven, and capturing the pirate leader alive.

2.Christopher Columbus was an Italian navigator who made four voyages to discover the American continent, opened a route across the Atlantic Ocean to the Americas, and proved that the earth is round. Although Columbus set foot in the New World of America, he thought it was Asia.

Because at that time people did not know that between Europe and Asia, there was an America.

3.Magellan was a famous Portuguese navigator and explorer who led a fleet of ships to complete the first ever circumnavigation of the world. Changtong is recognized by the world as the first person to sail around the world.

When Magellan's fleet sailed into the endless ocean, the sea was calm and calm, what a peaceful ocean! Magellan then affectionately referred to the Great South Sea as the "Pacific Ocean."

1. Magellan (Magellan, Ferdinand), a famous Portuguese navigator and explorer, was born in 1480 in a broken knightly family in northern Portugal. Around the age of 10, he entered the royal palace and served as the queen's attendant. At the age of 16, he joined the Portuguese National Maritime Affairs Department, where he became familiar with the various aspects of maritime affairs.

In September 1519, Magellan led a mighty fleet of more than 200 men and five ships from the port of Seville, Spain, to embark on a voyage around the world.

2. After more than two months of ocean drifting fleet, we crossed the Atlantic Ocean to the coast of Brazil. The fleet continued south along the coast, and in January of the following year came to a large wide bay. "The Strait has been found! "The Strait has been found! ”

3. The seafarers cheered with joy, thinking that they had reached the southern tip of America and could enter the new ocean. However, as the fleet progressed through the bay, it was discovered that the sea water had turned into fresh water, and it turned out to be only a wide estuary, which is the outlet of the La Plata River in Uruguay today.

4. The flotilla continued to advance southward. The seasons in the Southern Hemisphere are the opposite of those in the Northern Hemisphere, and in March South America is close to winter, with wind and snow making navigation extremely difficult. At the end of the month, the fleet arrives at the port of San Julián, where it anchors for the winter.

5. Most of the seafarers were discouraged by several failed attempts to explore the strait, and three captains also took the opportunity to oppose Magellan. Magellan devised a plan to quell the rebellion and avoid the half-run end of the expedition.

6. In August, it was the season of spring flowers in this region, and Magellan led the fleet to set off again. Two months later, the fleet discovered another sea at 52 degrees south latitude. This strait is twisted and curved, narrow and wide, and the harbors are staggered and the waves are turbulent.

Magellan sent a ship to explore, but the ship turned around or fled back to Spain.

7. Magellan had no choice but to lead the remaining three ships to grope their way through the strait like a labyrinth. Magellan led the fleet forward with a strong will. After a one-month roundabout voyage through the strait, they finally walked out of the west entrance of the strait and saw the vast sea.

Magellan, who had always been known for his composure and firmness, shed tears with emotion.

Summary. A navigator is a person who has made outstanding achievements and contributions in the field of navigation and exploration. The captain is the commander of the ship, in charge of the navigation and maneuvering of the ship, and is the supreme commander of the ship's operation.

In some cases, the captain can be called a navigator. For example, in an expeditionary voyage, the captain may lead the crew to explore uncharted waters and open up new routes, which can also be referred to as nautical activities, and the captain can also be considered to have made outstanding contributions in the field of sailing. In conclusion, the captain and the navigator are related to a certain extent, but the captain is more of a profession, a work identity, while the navigator is an ambition, achievement, and honor.

I'm sorry I don't understand, but can you elaborate on that?
