Christopher Columbus and his ships tried to sail to India via the Atlantic Ocean. At the time, there was a common belief that sailing too far west would lead to certain death. No one really knew that the Americas existed. Instead, it was thought that there was a huge cliff or waterfall at the end of the Atlantic. So, Columbus not only sailed to see if it was possible to reach India by going west, but also sought to prove that the earth was indeed round. Did you know that upon landing in the Antilles (Caribbean Islands), Columbus thought that he had found India? ~Apple Juice
