The Greenland shark is a shark indigenous to the North Atlantic waters around Greenland and Iceland. They have a massive body, the size of a ferocious white shark, 6-7m long, weighing over a ton. As a carnivore. So although the “gentle” one of the “family”, Greenland sharks are still quite dangerous. Usually they eat small fish in cold seas, however they also sometimes catch seals. Despite its giant stature, what attracts ocean scientists more than that is the longevity of this ancient fish. Humans have been looking for ways to prolong their life, and it seems that the Greenland shark is the key to longevity. Biologist Julius Nielsen of the University of Copenhagen (Denmark), after a lengthy study, had to say: “From the beginning, we had expected them to be longevity but did not expect them to live that long. “ Usually sharks are about 30 years old. But in Greenland sharks, this is just the age “know how to crawl” … using the carbon measurement method, the scientists confirmed the average life expectancy of the Greenland shark is over 240 years. Even the oldest specimen is 512 years old – super longevity This means that the sea monster was born from the time Cristoforo Colombo discovered America, and lived until smartphones flooded the planet. Researches suspect that the extremely slow growth, growing only about 1 cm each year under the cold water has helped the animals to live a long life. Until the age of 150, Greenland sharks are fully mature, entering the reproductive age. Currently, scientists are still hoping to be able to find, separate and map genes that are directly related to this species’ longevity. In addition to longevity, large size, Greenland sharks also contain many interesting secrets, for example, they swim very lethargic. Unlike the terrifying speed of the white shark, the average Greenland shark only swims over 1km / h. When hunting prey, it can increase … 2km / h, only half the speed of human walking. Because of this “crawling” speed, scientists believe that it can only catch seals when prey is asleep. There is also an opinion that because it does not need to spend too much energy on moving, plus the cold water of the North Atlantic helps to “preserve fresh” the cells in the body, making Greenland sharks live. to 5 centuries. Adding a perfect factor for longevity is that this sea monster has almost no natural enemies when hiding its giant body forever on the ocean floor. The species that most threatens their lives is humans. This kind of confrontation in reality is completely absent Originally, Greenland sharks live in cold seas, so the body has to secrete a special substance to keep warm, preventing them from freezing. This substance for humans is extremely poisonous, but not so that the animal is ignored … As early as the Viking era, the indigenous people of this cold land discovered that burying sharks for several weeks removed the toxin. … To this day, it is well known that just boil the Greenland shark meat many times, it will achieve the same result. After 3 – 6 months, when the fish goes through a freezing cycle, they dig up and hang the carcass in the wind, for at least 9 months. In the end, just cut off the brown skin, take the white flesh inside, and we have a local specialty called Hákarl However, when trying to eat Hákarl many people say that it “tastes of nightmares” with a scent like urine, rotten cheese. Going back to the deep ocean, the Greenland sea monster also has another strange feature, that is, they are all blind … As a curse, this shark gets attached to the eye by the copepoda parasite, damaging the lens layer In return, Greenland sharks have a sharp sense of smell, can smell prey from extremely far distances. After all, it doesn’t matter much to not seeing anything on the undersea of ​​the sea. Until now, this sea monster is still an interesting research topic for scientists around the world.

To show solidarity with neighboring Czech Republic (Czech), Slovakia expelled three Russian diplomats, the news agency. TASS reporting. Citing sources from Slovak media on April 22, TASS said Slovak Prime Minister Eduard Heger had notified Slovakia of the deportation order and asked three Russian diplomats to leave Slovakia “in the next seven days”. Slovakia’s decision came after neighboring Czech country called on European allies to support Prague’s stance in expelling 18 Russian diplomats for accusing Moscow of being involved in a number of ammunition explosions. in the Czech Republic in 2014. Russian Embassy in Bratislava (Slovakia). Photo: AFP Slovakia is an ally in the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Bloc (NATO). The Czech Republic and Slovakia had a period of forming a unified state, known as Czechoslovakia, before a peaceful split in 1993. Prime Minister Heger explained that Slovakia’s decision to target diplomatic missions “did not respect the” principles of international law “, and stressed that the Bratislava government” desperately needed to do everything possible. to ensure security and for diplomatic missions working in Slovakia to comply with the laws (of Slovakia) and international agreements “. Accordingly, the decision to expel Russian diplomats was made by Slovakia “based on information from intelligence agencies (of Slovakia) who cooperated closely with the partner’s intelligence agencies. “and” based on the situation in the geopolitical space and current events in the Czech Republic – a country where Slovakia shows its solidarity and support “. Slovakia Jaroslav Nad noted that Bratislava’s decision was not a “cliché act” but was based on the fact that the activities of three Russian diplomats “went beyond established rules. in the international environment “. Responding to reporters’ questions about Slovakia’s move, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Moscow was “deeply disappointed by Bratislava’s unfriendly actions”. Ms. Zakharova accused Slovakia of “showing false solidarity” with an act Moscow called a “fabrication incident” presented by Prague. Russia has repeatedly denied its involvement in military incidents in the Czech Republic and has taken diplomatic retaliation measures. The representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry also said that Moscow will soon take measures to retaliate against the deportation order of Bratislava.

Ackee and salted fish are two dishes associated with Jamaican culture. According to the BBC, Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world, usually eats this dish in the morning. However, many people wonder how the dish including the poisonous fruit of West Africa and the fish from the North Atlantic become the “wet country” in Jamaica? Photo: Melting Pot. Writer Brendan Sainsbury said this story is tied to the “triangle of the slave trade” between England, West Africa and the Caribbean colonies in the 18th and 19th centuries. Ackee looks like lychee, originating from Ghana. Salted fish comes from the windy waters of Northern Europe and Eastern Canada. Photo: Getty. Ackee is suitable for the tropical climate of Jamaica so it has developed strongly since then. Today, across the country you’ll find large, overgrown ackee trees. Photo: BBC. Meanwhile, salted fish (mainly cod) is preserved by salting because in mid-17th century, freezer appeared. It was transferred mainly from Nova Scotia (Canada) to the British Caribbean colonies (including Jamaica). Somehow, the perfect recipe for these two was born. Photo: Getty. Cuthbert Binns, the head chef of a long-established Jamaican restaurant, shares the recipe: “First, boil ackee and salted fish together for 20 minutes before draining, filter the fish bones. Sour, spring onion, chili in a separate pan. Add boiled ackee with salted fish and sprinkle with thyme, black pepper. Photo: WordPress. Despite having a showy green crust, ackee hides a terrifying toxin. This fruit is extremely toxic if eaten unripe. If you eat, you will vomit, or die (quite rarely). Before that, Time magazine once listed ackee on the list of the most dangerous foods in the world. Ackee trading and importing is controlled very carefully. In Haiti, many cases have been recorded death from eating unripe ackee fruit due to lack of food. Photo: Serious Eats. However, the Jamaican people did not heed these dangerous warnings. “We know when it is safe to pick ackee fruit. You can only pick it when the fruit is open naturally, with a clear look at the yellow inner skin. This fruit contains toxic gas and it will release itself at ripe” Jamaican resort owner Janet Crick told the BBC. Photo: Elle Adventures.

The fate of Captain Briggs and his family and the crew of the Mary Celeste ship is still an unanswered question. Artwork: Vessel Finder.

Journey from New York (USA), to Genoa (Italy) is a relatively short journey, but Briggs has good reason to be cautious. Not only did he use his savings to buy a ship, but his wife, Sarah, and 2-year-old daughter, Sophia, followed Briggs during the trip.

On November 3, 1872, Briggs sent a letter to his mother in Marion, Massachusetts. “Our ship is beautifully decorated,” he wrote. “I hope we will have a good journey.” Four days later, he and his crew and family set out. But they never returned.

Eight days after the Mary Celeste ship left New York Harbor, the escort ship Dei Gratia of Canada set sail on the same voyage to Genoa. The trip was not special until the afternoon of December 4, when the crew saw a ship drifting between the Azores archipelago and the Portuguese coast in the North Atlantic. After signaling to the Mary Celeste but received no response, Captain David Morehouse sent three people to inspect. They see the scene like in a ghost story.

The ship was not silhouetted. The rudder rotates indefinitely on the empty deck. One sail was damaged while the other sails were out of shape. The only lifeboat is gone and one of the ship’s pumps has been disassembled. Except for a few damaged boxes, the cargo on board was intact. The hull was about a meter in depth, not to worry. The warehouse is fully stocked to last up to 6 months. The crew left their cigarettes and pipes behind. In the captain’s room, everything remains in place.

The last entry of the log was dated November 24 with common information, but the location of the Mary Celeste was about 400 nautical miles west of where the Dei Gratia discovered it. There is no explanation as to why Captain Briggs left the ship in the middle of the ocean and how it could travel so far with just one sail. Captain Morehouse decided to bring the Mary Celeste to the port of Gibraltar. Under the maritime law, he is entitled to a share of the total value of the ship and the amount of cargo it carries. This is a decision he and the crew will later regret.

The hearing to determine the fate of the derelict ship was conducted by Attorney General Gibraltar Frederick Solly-Flood. He believes that a serious crime took place under the influence of alcohol, despite the fact that the cargo that the Mary Celeste was carrying was mainly toxic industrial alcohol.

The Flood hypothesis was that the crew destroyed and killed the captain and his family in a drunken stupor. In order to conceal their crimes, they damaged the bow of the ship to look like it had collided, then left on the lifeboat with most of the captain’s navigation and papers.

Morehouse and the crew of the ship Dei Gratia were also questioned by Flood. According to him, they lied about where the Mary Celeste was found and falsified the ship’s log. Although Flood’s hypotheses were later disproved, doubts remained with Captain Moorehouse and his crew for the remainder of his career.

For more than a century, countless theories about the disappearance of the family of Captain Briggs and the crew of the ship Mary Celeste have been put forward, whether they were attacked by pirates, hit by giant killer squids or even is being kidnapped by aliens.

More plausibly, the damaged barrels in the ship’s bunker sparked speculation that a concussion caused the leak of flammable alcohol vapors. An explosion could panic Captain Briggs and order the ship to abandon the ship too soon. However, if so, the Dei Gratia’s crew must smell strange when boarding or detect signs of fire.

Up to now, questions about the whereabouts of 10 people aboard the Mary Celeste that disappeared in the North Atlantic between November 24 and December 4, 1872 have not been answered. The available data is so meager and the possibilities are almost limitless.

The fate of the Mary Celeste ship, though, is clear. In January 1885, it was sunk on a reef off the coast of Haiti. The ship’s captain, Gilman C. Parker, conspired with a group of Boston shippers to cheat insurance money. The ghost ship will never set sail again.
