The battle about the final resting place of the "Endeavour"

You may have heard about the big maritime dispute between Australia and the US in recent weeks. Australian experts are convinced they have found the remains of Captain James Cook's ship "Endeavour". But archaeologists from the USA called the Australians' report "premature". They said it was guided by "Australian emotions or politics". Barbara Barkhausen was on the phone with me to discuss this sensational news.
