They Found The Oldest Message In A Bottle Ever…

they read the message…

This is pretty cool as they found a 100 year old message in a bottle.

You don’t hear about this kind of discovery everyday.  And this story went viral and surprised a lot of people.  We all watch movies and tv shows and have read books about these types of things.  However, someone discovered an actual message that washed up on the shore with a very old message.

A postcard placed in a bottle and thrown into the North Sea more than a century ago has been found and returned to the scientific institution responsible for its distribution. Rather than a love letter or an SOS to the world, it is part of one of the longest running scientific experiments in the world.

From 1904-1906 George Parker Bidder of the Marine Biological Association of the U.K. (MBA) placed 1020 postcards addressed to the institution in bottles and had them released into the North Sea. The cards offered a reward of a shilling to anyone who found one and posted it back with information.

Did you ever think you would hear about something like this?
