Wreck of ship sailed by James Cook in South Pacific found in US

Experts said they identified what's left of British explorer James Cook's ship HMS Endeavour in Newport Harbor, Rhode Island. Cook sailed the ship around the South Pacific in a pioneering voyage before landing on the east coast of Australia in 1770. The Endeavour was deliberately sunk there by the British during the American Revolution and lay forgotten for more than two centuries.
