Henry Hudson
Henry Hudson (?-1611), was an English explorer and sea captain. He made four voyages in an attempt to discover a northern route between Europe and Asia. Hudson never found such a sea passage, but he sailed farther north than any previous explorer. He explored three North American waterways later named for himthe Hudson River, Hudson Bay, and Hudson Strait.
Northern voyages
Historians know nothing about Hudson's life except for the period of 1607 to 1611, when he made his four voyages. In 1607, the Muscovy Company, an English trading firm, hired Hudson to find a northern sea route to Asia. European merchants and geographers believed that a ship could reach the Orient by sailing north, northeast, or northwest. They thought such a route would be shorter than any other. The Arctic had not been explored, and people did not know that ice blocked the area around the North Pole.
Hudson set out from England in a ship called the Hopewell with his young son, John, and a crew of 10 men. He sailed northeast along the coast of Greenland and reached Spitsbergen. These islands lie only about 700 miles (1,100 kilometers) from the North Pole, and no explorer had sailed so far north before. Huge ice floes forced Hudson to return to England. He told of seeing many whales in the northern waters, and his report led to English and Dutch whaling near Spitsbergen. In 1608, Hudson again tried to find a northern route, but ice again blocked the Hopewell.

Introduction:
Who was Henry Hudson Anyway? And What Happened to Him?
Imagine stumbling onto the beauty of the Hudson Valley by accident! Englishman Henry Hudson was looking for a quick passage to China as he sailed along America's north Atlantic coast in 1609. Hudson thought he found what he was looking for when he entered New York Bay and what is now the river named for him. He and his crew of 18-20 men, sailing on a ship called the Half Moon, traveled about 150 miles up the river near what is now Albany before realizing it would not lead them to their destination of choice. What he did first find was the Hudson River of modern day New York.
The Task: You and your team of learners have been appointed by the Queen and King to accompany Mr. Hudson on his journey. Your task will be to gather information about your adventure. You will need to report back to a committee to determine if this voyage was a success. Be prepared to tell about Henry Hudson, his ship, navigation, what places you visited with Mr. Hudson, what you accomplished, and any hardships. In addition, you will travel, in time, to the present day. You will need to tell how Henry Hudson is remembered. In addition, we all know that a river was named after him. What is that river like today?

Named in honor of Henry Hudson, the explorer whose ship, the Half Moon, anchored near this site in 1609, this bridge opened in 1936. It connects northern Manhattan to the Bronx and was built as part of the Henry Hudson Parkway by the Henry Hudson Parkway Authority. When it opened, it was the longest plate girder arch and fixed arch bridge in the world. Originally built with only one level, the bridge's design allowed for the construction of a second level if traffic demands increased. Within a year and a half the upper level was opened. The upper level carries northbound traffic; the lower one is for southbound traffic. After a series of mergers, the Henry Hudson Parkway Authority became part of the Triborough Bridge Authority in 1941. Today the Henry Hudson Bridge remains one of Bridges an Tunnels' facilities, but the parkway is under the jurisdiction of New York City and New York State.

How did the Hudson River in New York and New Jersey get its name? On the misty morning of September 3, 1609, explorer Henry Hudson and his crew aboard the Half Moon sailed into the majestic river off the Atlantic coast by chance. Strong head winds and storms forced them to abandon the northeast voyage they had been assigned. Rather than return to Holland with nothing to report, the crew voted to look for the Northwest Passage, a legendary waterway that would carry a ship all the way from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. They passed by the island we know today as Manhattan and sailed up the river.

Hudson was not the first European explorer to discover this river. The Florentine navigator Giovanni da Verrazano discovered the Hudson in 1524. But Henry Hudson traveled the river much farther than its previous explorer. After 150 miles, the Half Moon did not reach the Pacific, but it did reach what would later become Albany, New York. There, they turned around. But as a result of Hudson's exploration, the river bears his name today. Hudson was a headstrong but courageous commander. Though he often mismanaged his crews by playing favorites or letting morale suffer, he was a competent navigator. He undertook four dangerous voyages, and made huge contributions to geographical knowledge. His exploration of the Hudson River led to Dutch colonization of the area.

HENRY HUDSON
HUDSON, HENRY Next year Hudson was again sent by the Muscovy Company to open a passage to China, this time by the north-east route between Spitzbergen and Novaya Zemlya, which had been attempted by his predecessors and especially by the Dutch navigator William Barents. This voyage lasted from the 22nd of April to the 26th of August ,6o8. He raked the Barents Sea in vain between 75 30 NW. and 71 15 S.E. for an opening through the ice, and on the 6th of July, voide of hope of-a north-east passage (except by the Waygats, for which I was nOt fitted to trie or prove), he resolved to sail to the north-west, and if time and means permitted to run a hundred leagues up Lumleys Inlet (Frobisher Strait) or Daviss overf all (Hudson Strait). But his voyage being delayed by contrary winds he was finally compelled to return without accomplishing his wish. The failure of this second attempt satisfied the Muscovy Company, which thenceforward directed all its energies to the profitable Spitzbergen trade. Although it is certain that the four great geographical landmarks which to-day serve to keep Hudsons memory alive, namely the Hudson Bay, Strait, Territory and River, had repeatedly been visited and even drawn on maps and charts before he set out on his voyages, yet he deserves to take a very high rank among northern navigators for the mere extent of his discoveries and the success with which he pushed them beyond the limits of his predecessors. The rich fisheries of Spitzbergen and the fur industry of the Hudson Bay Territory were the immediate fruit of his labors.

http://www.who2.com/henryhudson.html
HENRY HUDSON Explorer Henry Hudson was the English navigator who crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 1609 and became the first European to sail up what is now the Hudson River in New York. Little is known about Hudson's early life. In 1607 he was hired by the English Muscovy Company to lead the ship Hopewell on an expedition north of the European continent, in an effort to discover a northeastern sea passage to the spice islands of the South Pacific. He reached Greenland and Spitzbergen before his path was blocked by ice. On his second voyage, a year later, he made it as far as the archipelago of Novaya Zemlya in the Arctic Ocean. Still convinced that there might be a separate passage to the northeast, the merchants of the Dutch East India Company hired Hudson in 1609 to lead an expedition on the ship Halve Maen Half Moon in English). Hudson had other ideas, however, and sailed in the other direction, across the Atlantic to North America. He explored along the coast of Nova Scotia and down to what is now New York Harbor, sailing up the Hudson River as far north as Albany. Hudson's fourth voyage, aboard Discovery (1610-11), was financed by English merchants seeking the Northwest Passage across America to the Far East. He made it as far as Hudson's Bay before mutineers put him and eight others (including his son) adrift on a small boat in the bay in June of 1611. Although no record exists of their fate, the men were already sick and without provisions, and it is assumed Hudson and the others did not survive.

http://homepage.mac.com/jhjenkins/Asimov/Books/Book482.html
Books Stories Henry Hudson: Arctic Explorer and North American Adventurer Book 482 Uncategorized Our Angry Earth Why Are Whales Vanishing? This is the third and final book in the third and final series authored by Asimov of Gareth-Stevens—and there’s good reason to believe that his work on it was minimal and that Elizabeth Kaplan, his ostensible co-author, actually wrote the whole thing. (If that turns out to be the case, this book will end up getting removed from my list.) It’s not bad, really—about as good and as interesting as the earlier books, Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand Magellan . However, not being myself from the East Coast, Hudson is an inherently less interesting explorer than he might be to someone who lives on the river named after him. And unfortunately the book makes him out as being incredibly brave and incredibly stupid, which tends to detract from it. Still, it’s a solid piece of work and I'd gladly hand it to a grade school child who needed to know something about Hudson. John H. Jenkins
