Thomas Jefferson secretly commissions Meriwether Lewis on January 18, 1803, to lead the Corps of Discovery and explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory.
Thomas Jefferson tasked them to finding a water route to the Pacific, mapping the land, studying its resources, and establishing trade with Native American tribes. The expedition was later joined by William Clark and became a pivotal exploration in support of American expansion and scientific understanding of the West.
