Original title: it's 132 years old for women to pick up old rafting bottles. It records these things
A half buried bottle has been found on the west coast of Australia, which is the oldest drifting bottle in the world. It was thrown into the sea from the Indian Ocean and came to Australia across the sea for 132 years. The oldest recorded bottle has a history of 108 years, 4 months and 18 days.
In 1886, the German sailboat "Paula" launched the 132 year old drifting bottle in a 69 year long study of the world current and the search for faster and more efficient navigation routes. The bottle was recently found near wedge Island, 180 kilometers north of Perth, Australia.
From 1864 to 1933, thousands of drifting bottles with information of human civilization were dropped from German ships. In every drift bottle.
The date of the throw, the coordinates, the name of the vessel, and the port and route the vessel came from.
On the back of the letter, there was a space to ask for the time and place when the bottle was found, and then return it to the German naval Meteorological Observatory in Hamburg or the nearest German Consulate.
But only 662 pieces of stationery were returned and none of them had bottles. The discovery increased the total number of bottles returned to 663. The last discovery of the bottle dates back to Denmark in 1934.
The discovery of the bottle has been confirmed by the German side and the Western Australian Museum to be true and effective.
But when it comes to the person who found the bottle, she turned out to be a woman from Perth, and she agreed to lend the bottle to the museum for display in the next two years.
