Both Columbus and Magellan thought that they understood the Earths circumference, however this false understanding caused them to end up in the wrong place. Magellan, however, had a better understanding the world geography.
Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand Magellan are significant figures in the Age of Exploration. Columbus is credited with opening up the Americas to European exploration and colonization after his 1492 voyage, which marked a turning point in global history. Magellan is known for leading the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe, demonstrating the vastness of the Earth and the interconnectedness of various lands. Their journeys expanded European knowledge of geography and paved the way for global trade and cultural exchanges.

The importance of learning from mistakes is so that you will not make the same mistakes (or similar mistakes) in the future, and you will thereby make more right decisions and fewer wrong decisions, and therefore will enjoy more success and less failure.
Explorers such as Christopher Columbus and Ferdinand Magellan used a quadrant, a navigational instrument, to measure the altitude of celestial bodies like the sun or stars to determine their position at sea. This helped them navigate and map their way during their explorations.
Magellan didn't return. He died half way around the world at the hands of the Philippine natives.
when he sailed the Strait of Magellan and was the fist man to sail all the way around th world
