Why Sailing Powers Needed Tons of Tar — and How They Used It
When people think about the age of sail, they usually picture masts, white sails, cannons, ropes, and the open ocean. Tar rarely appears in that image. It seems like some minor thing from the world of forests and carpenters. But for sailing powers, tar was a strategic material. Without it, a wooden ship would rot faster, leak more easily, dry out, and lose its rigging far sooner. Put simply, without tar a maritime empire could not keep its fleet in working condition for long.

The Unbelievable Chile Mine Rescue
It is August 5, 2010, at the San Jose Gold and Copper Mine in Chile. More than 2,000 feet below the surface, a couple of miners notice a faint rumbling sound echoing through the rocks. The miners have heard rumblings like this before as the rock adjusts to new excavations, but today these rumblings are much more frequent than usual. The time is 2:00 PM, and the workers are trying to wrap up as much work as possible before they will be picked up by a work truck to go to the surface for lunch. Suddenly, they hear something much louder than the previous rumblings. The blast sends those working on the higher levels to the ground and causes the tunnels and shafts to collapse. Large rocks tumble down, sweeping across the workers, and all they can do is hang onto them and ride it out. The San Jose mine has just collapsed, trapping 33 men beneath the surface.
