AMERICANALMANAC (Jack Newsome) - Nor'easter unearths possible remains of 1884 Nantucket schooner

Wooden remnants likely from an 1884 Nantucket shipwreck washed ashore during a weekend nor'easter that knocked out power for more than 131,000 Americans. Fragments of what eagle-eyed observers believe may be the three-masted schooner Warren Sawyer turned up on the south shore of Nantucket, Massachusetts, as the storm battered the island with wind and rain.

Wooden remnants likely from an 1884 Nantucket shipwreck washed ashore during a weekend nor'easter that knocked out power for more than 131,000 Americans. Fragments of what eagle-eyed observers believe may be the three-masted schooner Warren Sawyer turned up on the south shore of Nantucket, Massachusetts, as the storm battered the island with wind and rain. The find has not been formally confirmed, but local reporting ties the debris to the vessel that wrecked near Miacomet Beach more than a century ago. Daily Mail reporting described wooden remains left on the beach after the nor'easter arrived Friday and continued through the weekend. Nantucket Current flagged the discovery in a social post that quickly drew attention to the island's…Open

AMERICANALMANAC (Sadie Smith) - One-in-100-million white lobster named Casper joins Maine research effort on rare shell colors

A ghostly white lobster so rare that only one in every 100 million lobsters shares its coloring is now helping University of New England researchers crack the genetic code behind the species' most unusual shell colors. The lobster, named Casper, arrived at UNE's Arthur P. Girard Marine Science Center in Biddeford, Maine, after the Maine […] The post One-in-100-million white lobster named Casper joins Maine research effort on rare shell colors appeared first on American Almanac .

A ghostly white lobster so rare that only one in every 100 million lobsters shares its coloring is now helping University of New England researchers crack the genetic code behind the species' most unusual shell colors. The lobster, named Casper, arrived at UNE's Arthur P. Girard Marine Science Center in Biddeford, Maine, after the Maine State Aquarium in Boothbay donated the animal to a research project launched in 2024. UNE calls white lobsters "the rarest among the unusual color variations found in the species," and Casper is now the crown specimen in a growing collection of oddly colored American lobsters that includes orange, blue, purple, yellow, calico, and split-colored animals. Markus Frederich, a marine sciences professor who…Open
