Believed to have been born in the late 16th century, English explorer Henry Hudson made two unsuccessful sailing voyages in search of an ice-free passage to Asia. In 1609, he embarked on a third voyage funded by the Dutch East India Company that took him to the New World and the river that would be given his name. On his fourth voyage, Hudson came upon the body of water that would later be called the Hudson Bay.
The third voyage was the worst. When some members of Henry Hudson's crew set off to find food on the shore, the First Nations attacked them and killed one of Henry Hudson's men. The man that died was one of the most important men on the ship. He would keep watch to see if there were chunks of ice up ahead and if there were dead ends.

By the time the ice melted and the boat was free, his unhappy crew plotted against him and set him adrift in a boat with his son and a few other crew members
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that, through cellular respiration, can later be released to fuel the organism's activities.
