The Study Of The Ocean

I think that Magellan's journey to prove that the world was round was a major event that changed the study of the ocean. We now knew that the world wrapped around and that the oceans that surrounded the land had an end and also had no end, since they went around and around. We knew that there was a depth because it had to end somewhere. Exploration of the ocean and the rest of the world began to increase after this.
