Warm-up
Imagine that you have the opportunity to sail with Christopher Columbus on one of his voyages. Life aboard ship is hard; food and water tend to spoil, and ships often wreck in storms. Nevertheless, the promise of fame and fortune has led thousands to risk their lives at sea.
Knowing the risks as well as the potential for wealth and fame, would you sign on as a crew member for a voyage to the unknown? Why or why not?
Warm-up
The ships that explorers used in earlier times were constructed very differently from today's ships. The Santa María was a cargo ship made of wood, with five sails. It was powered by the wind and could travel at most about 100 miles a day. A tiller was used to steer; the ship's wheel wouldn't be invented for another 200 years. The Santa María hit a reef and sank on Christmas Day, 1492. Since the fifteenth century, shipbuilding technology has changed. Now ships are made with steel and use steam, gas, or nuclear power to cover 100 miles in a few hours.
How might history have changed if the early ships had been made of the materials we use today?
