How the Gulf Stream Fueled an Age of Discovery
Ocean currents have played an immeasurable role in the lives of humans since well before people mustered the courage to take to the high seas. Here is one part of our relationship with Earth's natural super-highways, how the Gulf Stream fueled an age of discovery.

    How can a president could have so many relations to other women as commander in chief??? Use your brains people. The U.S. presidents doesnt have time to hooked up with so many women. Maybe before or after they become president. I found out JFK got a lot of haters back then. The media is now trashing his image when he is no longer here to defend himself and tell his side of the story. People claiming he unalive Maryn Monroe when there is no solid evidence. The media is smearing his name all because dumb metoo movement era. That movement really ruin a lot of people's lives and reputation. People are getting canvel left and right for things turn out to be false.

  • @itzakpoelzig330
    @itzakpoelzig330 2 місяці тому

    I think it's almost absurd to believe that the Phoenicians DIDN'T reach America. Exploring by sea is precisely what they did. We have accounts of them circling Africa and rounding the cape. Crossing the Atlantic would be a piece of cake in comparison, something you can actually do on accident. They were not at all like other Bronze Age sailors, afraid to sail out of sight of land. Phoenicians were bold navigators. They also told every kind of lie to the other Mediterranean peoples, convincing them that sea monsters, mud flats, and scorching sunlight would all kill them if they went past the Pillars of Hercules. They were also pathologically secretive about all of their discoveries. Rumor has it that they would debrief a returning sea captain who had discovered something new, write down everything he had said, get him to draw a map - and then quietly "disappear" him so that no one else could ever get his information. They had a written language (indeed, the Greek's credit them with inventing the alphabet) but very little of their writings have survived. It's silly to think that because we know very little of them, they must have done very little.

    He was aware he discovered a new land. The island discovery you're talking about was when he discovered some actual islands off the east coast, he certainly understood the vastness of the land he had found subsequently. But it is true that he thought they were in some way connected to Asia or "the Indies", thus, "Indians"

    The Camelot myth that Jackie concocted after JFK's assassination was a complete lie: this woman has to "own" her mistake, AND JFK was beyond disrespectful in doing "the deed" in Jackie's bedroom in the WH. Nick, please don't be overly impressed by the so-called allure of this president or any other celebrity for that matter. I walked away from Hollywood because I know myself and, in the late 1990's, early 2000's, the "couch culture" was alive and well there, and I wasn't about to throw away my marriage and family for "fame and fortune" in a disintegrating, immoral city like LA, though I was hanging out with top celebs and had every opportunity to cash in on the burgeoning reality TV landscape. As a fellow Catholic, I can only hope that JFK went to Confession before that horrible day in November of '63. God speed ~

    Nick, use Google Earth Maps, look at Poll na bPeist, "I" pool on inis mòr, Aran Islands, Galway, Ireland. Could it be thev1° meridian associated, with the Isles of the Blessed. In Semitic Gaelic, the word Blessed is translated, as " Beannaithe" - people have yet, to break down that Gaelic & Scottish Gaelic word into "Bean- na- ithe" = Lady of the Feathers. If you look closely, at the cliff face, above the " I" pool ( 1° meridian), you may see that Feather Lady/ LadyBird, carved into the Limestone, the nose of her cliff face, is her watery pool. As Marlowe said, " A face that launched a thousand ships". Worth a few minutes of your time - the ancient secret - 53 ° North 1 ° centre ( Greenwich/ Modern system, 53° North and 9° 45` West). Exposed rock on cliff are like her feather braid.🐞

    Father never makes a mistake, he is perfect in all his ways. He 100% purposed it to be legless. It's like Jesus tell the people about a bird that dies in the forest and falls off a tree, to us it is meaningless and has no point or purpose. But to father, he had a specific purpose meaning to why that specific bird died. It's like our lives, the most meaningless thing to happen has a greater purpose in it than we know. Nothing happens by chance and everything that happens has been purposed by father for good.
