Lake Michigan Coast Guard discovers historical mystery in shallow waters

Climate change has caused the water levels to lower, exposing shipwrecked boats from long ago.

Climate change has drawn humanity with a lot of uncovered mysteries. Just recently, a lot of amusing sights were seen in Lake Michigan when an ice cap near the shoreline melted. Aside from revealing the clear waters, it has also unleashed different objects, which were believed to have submerged long time ago

span style="line-height: 1.22;">MUNTINLUPA, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) - The Coast Guard wrote on their Facebook account about several photos of unbelievable shipwrecks taken near the shorelines of Sleeping Bear Point Leland, Michigan. These photos were said to reach up to the Northport area.

Keep God's message with you always -- A Bible is all you needPhotos show submerged shipwrecks from over two centuries seemingly floating once again on shallow waters. These include the 133-foot long "Rising Sun," and more.

The ships were said to have been missing for several years, and even centuries. One ship sunk in 1857 and the Rising Sun in 1917. Who would have thought these century-old shipwrecks would be seen once again through photos.

This phenomenon was explained by Laura Quackenbush of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, due to the differences of water levels through time, "lakeshore's current change" is also affected. This event usually comes along with some storms in beaches that cause erosion in the seas. Consequently, an offshore and onshore scenario will be observed later on from these objects albeit in the deepest seas.

Quackenbush's statement was supported by Mark Lindsay, who witnessed a similar event, by seeing a large piece of ship back in 2012 that eventually went back to the waters.

Lindsay added that these things buried down deep in the depths of the seas are comparable to the burial grounds on land. Needless to say that the living should stay away from the dead.
