Answer:
Challenger
Step-by-step explanation:
The challenger was a ship used to explore the seas and took a very long journey between 1872-1876. Before the expedition, the ship was transformed into a set of laboratories of chemistry and natural history. She traveled nearly 70,000 nm (nautical miles) or 130,000 km.
All this scientific exersice that made a lot of discoveries (investigating physical and chemical conditions under seas accross the globe) were the foundations of what we know today as Oceanography.
