	Port Jackson - LoveToKnow 1911
		Port Jackson is the chief naval depot of Australasia, the headquarters of the admiral's station, and is strongly fortified.
		The harbour has a number of islands, most of which are used for naval or government purposes-Shark Island is the quarantine station, Garden Island has naval foundries, hospital and stores, Goat Island is occupied by a powder magazine, Spectacle Island is used to store explosives, and on Cockatoo Island are important government docks.
		Port Jackson was discovered by Captain Phillip in 1788, though in 1770 Captain Cook, when coasting north, noticed what looked like an inlet, and named it after Sir George Jackson, one of the secretaries to the Admiralty.
