Loaísa's expedition was conceived both
Loaísa's expedition was conceived both as a rescue mission and a voyage of discovery. The Victoria, a vessel from Magellan's expedition to the Pacific, had returned to Spain in 1522 with word that her sister ship the Trinidad had last been seen attempting to return home by sailing east from the Spice Islands to South America.
Loaísa was ordered to seek Trinidad, or news of her fate, by voyaging along her expected return route to Spain. He was also ordered to locate and colonize Magellan's Spice Islands. For this purpose, Loaísa was assigned seven vessels and a total of 450 men including tradesmen and administrators for the Spice Islands settlement.
