The ship was half empty already. Cargo from Asia was stacked in neat rows of shipping containers on the dock.

Standing in its shadow, it s hard to appreciate just how big the Hong kong Express is.

As the spring sun climbed higher, glinting off the placid Elbe river, some cranes nestled containers into towering metal racks on the ship s deck while others lifted boxes out.

full racks of Asia-bound cargo towered 50 feet above the deck, corrugated steel containers stacked like Lego blocks six deep.

it can move 1. 4 million tons of cargo annually. That s the equivalent of 1. 8 billion ipads.

The ship is a link in a long, complicated, and precise global supply chain made possible by the humble boxes on board.

Ships make many stops, and a box scheduled to be unloaded late in the journey can t be placed above one slated for offloading early.

Last year the world s container ports moved 560 million 20-foot containers#early 1. 5 billion tons of cargo altogether.

and coal still move in specially designed bulk cargo ships, more than 90 percent of the rest#verything from clothes to cars to computers#ow travels inside shipping containers.#

There s the trucker who moves the box to a waiting ship in Xinjiang, the feeder ship that moves it to Singapore to be loaded onto a bigger Europe-bound freighter, the crane operator in Hamburg, customs officials, train engineers, and more.

Longshoremen laid hands on each piece of cargo that went into a ship s hold,

#oeso long as cargo was handled one item at a time, with long delays at the docks and complicated interchanges between trucks, trains, planes,

and ships, freight transportation was too unpredictable for manufacturers to take the risk that supplies from faraway places would arrive on time,

Trucks could roll their trailers onto ships in North carolina; the trailers would be unloaded in New york

On April 26, 1956, Mclean s first container ship#military-surplus WWII tanker#ailed from Newark to Houston loaded with containers custom-built for his company, Pan-Atlantic.

and out of ship holds using cranes, others with forklifts. Cranes belonging to Grace Lines couldn t unload containers belonging to Pan-Atlantic.

resulted in a 1961 agreement that only ships built to carry boxes 10, 20,30, and 40 feet long would be eligible for federal subsidies.

The first Transatlantic container ships set sail in 1966, filled with whiskey headed to the U s. and guns on their way to Europe.

nearly every berth was filled with U s. military cargo destined for the 250,000 American soldiers stationed in West germany.

#oethe early Transatlantic container ships could be unloaded and reloaded more quickly, so containerships spent less time at the dock than breakbulk ships,

#says Levinson.##oeconsequently, each one could make more voyages in the course of a year.#

Mile for mile, transporting a single TEU using a modern container ship produces just a third of the CO2 it would take to move that same container with a truck.

and multiple international supply chains means that far more cargo is being moved today than in the days of breakbulk.

like the loss of many dockworkers jobs and the death of waterfronts around the world as cargo moves to increasingly automated facilities on or beyond city limits.

#Delays as ships were rerouted to ports in Canada and the Gulf Coast of the U s. might hold up cargo for weeks.

It s already happened, on a small scale. In 2002, labor disputes led to a 10-day port lockout on the West Coast.

And Hurricane Sandy closed terminals in Newark and New york for days, forcing shippers to route their cargo to ports elsewhere on the East Coast.

#Origins of Mysterious World trade center Ship Revealed In July 2010 amid the gargantuan rebuilding effort at the site of the World trade center in Lower Manhattan construction workers halted the backhoes

and parking complex excavators found the mangled skeleton of a long-forgotten wooden ship. Now a new report finds that tree rings in those waterlogged ribs show the vessel was built likely in 1773 or soon after in a small shipyard near Philadelphia.

What's more the ship was made perhaps from the same kind of white oak trees used to build parts of Independence Hall where the Declaration of Independence

See Photos of the Ship and Its Tree Rings Archaeologists had been on-site throughout the excavation of the World trade center's Vehicular Security Center.

when the 32-foot-long (9. 75 m) partial hull of the ship emerged from the dirt.

The team established that the trees used to build the ship some of which had lived to be more than 100 years old were mostly cut down around 1773.

Martin-Benito and his colleagues at Columbia's Tree Ring Lab narrowed their search to trees in the eastern United states thanks to the keel of the ship which contained hickory a tree found only in eastern North america and Eastern asia.

Secrets of the Deep The ship's signature pattern most closely matched with the rings found in old living trees

whether the ship sank accidently or if it was submerged purposely to become part of a landfill used to bulk up Lower Manhattan's coastline.

Oysters found fixed to the ship's hull suggest it at least languished in the water for some time before being buried by layers of trash and dirt.

Previous investigations found that the vessel's timbers had been damaged by burrowing holes of Lyrodus pedicellatus a type of shipworm typically found in high-salinity warm waters a sign that the ship at some point in its life made a trip to the Caribbean perhaps on a trading voyage.

Martin-Benito speculated that the infestation might have been one of the reasons the ship met its demise just 20

I don't know much about the life expectancy for boats but that doesn't seem like too long for something that would take so long to build Martin-Benito said.

when intrepid voyagers arrived by boat through several journeys over some generations. A piece of that early heritage was revealed recently on a beach in New zealand

The boat had carved interior ribs and clear evidence of repair and reuse. Carbon dating tests showed that the vessel was last caulked with wads of bark in 1400.

If the ship was a double canoe it probably had a deck a shelter and a sail that was pitched forward much like the historic canoes of the Society islands (a group that includes Bora Bora and Tahiti) and the Southern Cook islands.

The boat was sophisticated surprisingly more than the canoes described centuries later by the first Europeans to arrive in New zealand Johns told Live Science.

In the smaller islands of Polynesia boat builders didn't have access to trees that were big enough to make an entire canoe;

and an adaptation to the new resources on New zealand since the boat has hollowed some big-out portions
