Ghost Ship: The Mary Celeste
On December 4, 1872, a British-American ship called “the Mary Celeste” was found empty and adrift in the Atlantic. It was found to be seaworthy and with its cargo fully intact, except for a lifeboat, which it appeared had been boarded in an orderly fashion. But why? We may never know because no one on board was ever heard from again.
In November 1872, the Mary Celeste set sail from New York bound for Genoa, Italy. She was manned by Captain Benjamin Briggs and seven crew members, including Briggs’ wife and their 2-year-old daughter. Supplies on board were ample enough for six months, and luxurious—including a sewing machine and an upright piano. Commentators generally agree that to precipitate the abandonment of a seaworthy ship, some extraordinary and alarming circumstance must have arisen. However, the last entry on the ship’s daily log reveals nothing unusual, and inside the ship, all appeared to be in order.

LIFESPAN OF AN ELECTRON 🧌

× The term "lifespan of an electron" refers to the theoretical time an electron would exist before decaying into other particles

× The estimate of an electron lifetime of at least 66,000 yottayears (6.6 × 10^28 years) is based on experiments and observations that have not detected any decay of the electron.

× This suggests that the electron is extremely stable, perhaps perfectly stable in the context of the Universe's age.

× His lifetime would correspond to about five-quintillion times the current age of the Universe.

× Standard Model of particle physics treats the electron as a stable elementary particle. Its stability is consistent with the conservation of electric charge, which is one of the fundamental principles of the Standard Model.

× If electrons could decay, it would indicate the existence of physics beyond the Standard Model. The discovery of such a process would violate the principle of charge conservation and suggest new mechanisms and particles not yet discovered, requiring a substantial revision of our understanding of fundamental physics.

× The conservation of electric charge is a universally conserved principle in all observed interactions to date in particle physics. Any evidence of electron decay violating this conservation would be a revolutionary discovery.
