The Lewis And Clark Expedition Begins. Their mission was to explore the unknown territory, establish trade with the Natives and affirm the sovereignty of the United States in the region. One of their goals was to find a waterway from the US to the Pacific Ocean.
The first goal was to find a north west passage- a direct rout to the pacific ocean.
The second goal was to collect and record new plants and animals species.
The third goal was to make new and accurate maps.
The fourth goal was to make peace with the natives.
