132 Saal Baad Dooba Hua Jahaaz Mila!
Aaj ek bada khabar aaya hai, dost! Ek purana jahaaz, Western Reserve, jo 130 saal pehle Lake Superior mein doob gaya tha, usko dhundh nikala gaya hai. Yeh toh badi baat hai! Reports ke mutaabik, yeh jahaaz poora steel ka bana tha, aur uss time ke sabse tej aur safe jahaazon mein se ek tha. Iski discovery Marine Sonic Technology side-scan sonar se possible hui.
Tragic Incident: Ek Family Ki Kahani
30 August, 1892 ko yeh jahaaz Whitefish Bay mein ek bada storm mein fans gaya. Afsos ki baat hai ki is haadse mein 27 log doob gaye, jismein jahaaz ke owner Peter Minch ki family bhi shamil thi. Woh apni wife aur bachon ke sath summer ki sair pe nikle the. Sirf ek aadmi, Harry W. Stewart, iss haadse mein bach paya. Woh 1.6 kilometer tak tair kar kinare pahunch gaya.
Tech Aur Mausam Ka Role?
Experts ka kehna hai ki uss time steel ke jahaaz banana naya tha, aur shayad is jahaaz ka hull itna strong nahi tha ki storm ko jhel sake. Thande paani ne bhi steel ko brittle bana diya hoga. Yeh jahaaz Michigan aur Canada ke beech Lake Superior mein doob gaya tha.
Khoj Ka Safar
Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society (GLSHS) ne 2024 ki garmiyon mein is jahaaz ko dhundhne ka kaam shuru kiya. Unhone sonar technology ka use kiya aur jahaaz ke tukdon ko dhundh nikala. Phir remotely operated vehicles ke through confirm kiya gaya ki yeh Western Reserve hi hai.
Itihaas Zinda Hai!
GLSHS ke director Bruce Lynn ne kaha ki yeh discovery itihaas ko zinda rakhne ka ek aur tarika hai. Western Reserve ek advanced technology wala jahaaz tha, jabki zyadatar jahaaz uss time lakdi ke bante the. Yeh ek bada aur latest jahaaz tha, jisko sabse safe mana jata tha.
Dube Hue Jahaazon Ka Khazana
1700s se ab tak Great Lakes mein kai jahaaz doob chuke hain, jinmein se sabse famous Edmund Fitzgerald hai. Yeh jahaaz 1975 mein Whitefish Point ke paas doob gaya tha, aur ismein sawar sabhi log maare gaye the. Yeh jagah Western Reserve ke doobne ki jagah se sirf 160 kilometer door hai. Yeh discoveries humein yaad dilati hain ki samundar kitna khatarnak ho sakta hai, aur history ke baare mein jaanana kitna important hai.
