The ship is possibly 200 years old.
"My wife and I walk the beach almost every day," Mark O’Donoghue said. Saturday he spotted "some timbers and metal spikes," exposed in the sand.
Sunday, even more had been exposed and he had a hunch that it was a shipwreck. Part of the ship was poking through the sand.
He notified the Lighthouse Archaeological Maritime Program, and they told him he was right.
Archaeologists were out Sunday and Monday, documenting the site in Crescent Beach, just north of the Matanzas Inlet. They believe the ship is from the 19th century, based on its construction and the frequency of ships wrecking on the northeast Florida coast during the 1800s...

In an archaeological breakthrough, ancient Buddhist relics dating back over 1,300 years have been unearthed beneath a historic temple in Northeastern Thailand — and experts say the find could reshape our understanding of early Buddhist art in the region.
The rare artifacts were discovered in April during a conservation project at Wat Dhammachak Semaran in Sung Noen district, Nakhon Ratchasima. The site is already famed for its massive Reclining Buddha, but this latest discovery may steal the spotlight

The El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is making headlines again, with 2024 data showing more abrupt and intense shifts between El Niño warming phases and La Niña cooling events. According to a March 2024 study in Nature Climate Change, these transitions are now frequently amplified by complex feedbacks in ocean currents and atmospheric patterns.“We’re seeing record-breaking sea surface temperatures and unprecedented drought-flood cycles,” said Dr. Kevin Martinez, a climate systems expert.
This volatility is causing widespread agricultural disruption, water shortages, and infrastructure damage across continents. The unpredictable nature of ENSO is also complicating disaster preparedness and insurance calculations worldwide.
Researchers warn that, as global warming intensifies, ENSO’s swings are only likely to become more erratic. For millions, these changes are already impacting daily life in dramatic, sometimes devastating ways...

Isn't it crazy how much manufactured fear there is these days. I guess dramatic statements of fear draws a lot of attention, which is the big treasure these days. The urinalists try to get attention by turning every event into a sign of the end of the world.
Don't fear change. Expect it. Adapt to it. Take advantage of it.
