Also crossed the international date line, so when they got back they found it was a different date to what they thought it was. That really freaked them out as they had been celebrating religious festivals and holding Sunday masses on the wrong day!

kardnut, unless he was tied to the bow the entire voyage, I'm pretty sure it would be everyone on the boat circumnavigating at the same time

It's just a "Magellan" expedition by the authority of the then monarch of Spain. Otherwise, you might also want to call it the "Magellan-Pigafetta" expedition.

You have had this wrong since at least 2018. When will you correct the credit for killing Magellan?

Pimpao +, Lapu Lapu is one of the national heroes of Philippines. P.S. I am sure you already knew that.

He's known as Magalhães to many. Both names should have been mentioned.
