This category includes expeditions whose primary or secondary purpose is scientific research and discovery, such as the Expedición Botánica al Virreinato del Perú or Charles Darwin's voyages on the Beagle. The category does not include commercial expeditions, such as some of the early whaling expeditions to Antarctica. Many expeditions had a chief purpose of discovery, such as the Luís Vaz de Torres or Lewis and Clark Expedition, but were also commissioned to study the geology, botany, and zoology they were to be found in the unexplored lands.
