	Medea Drive
		The myths that involve Medea are part of a class of myths that tell how the Hellenes of the distant heroic age, before the Trojan War, faced the challenges of the pre-Greek "Pelasgian" cultures of mainland Greece, and the Aegean and Anatolia.
		Medea figures in the myth of Jason and the Argonauts, a myth we know best from a late literary version worked up by Apollonius of Rhodes in the 3rd century BCE and called the ''Argonautica''.
		Medea asks for one day's delay, and begins to plan the deaths of Jason, Glauce, and Creon, while Jason arrives to confront her and explain himself.

		It rnanifested itself early, as evidenced by their performance in HMS MEDEA during her first commission, and laid the foundation for their own traditions.
		Conditions for engineers in the navy were undoubtably poor, and in a bid to improve the situation, the Admiralty, by Order in Council dated l0th July 1837, granted engineers Warrant rank, thereby elevating their status to that of the Civil Officers of the period, such as Masters, Pursers, Surgeons, and Chaplains.
		The first successful water tube boilers made their appearance in the navy in a modest way in the same year, but the main generator of steam at this period was the cylindrical, return tube type (Scotch), some of which were double ended, (from 1874) and all were manually coal fired.
