A not so Pacific voyage: the 'floating laboratory' of Nicolas Baudin. Abstract Text:

Ralph Kingston,Ralph Kingston,Ralph Kingston,

Nicolas Baudin's voyage to Australia in 1800 was particularly fractious. Many officers and scientists deserted. When stories of mission mismanagement leaked back to France, Baudin's reputation - and the public reputation of the expedition as a whole - was left in tatters. All was not Baudin's fault, however. Scientific rivalries - disputes over credit and quarrels over mission priorities - undermined his mission from the start, and explain why his attempt to use a 'public' journal to foster teamwork backfired. Unable to control his floating laboratory's paperwork, Baudin became an 'invisible commander'. After the expedition returned, naturalist François Péron assumed credit for its work.
