News BucksPublished 11 months ago in ProofWhat lies within the Statue of Liberty?
Let's examine the interior of the Statue of Liberty in detail. We'll explore its history, construction, and the accessible areas within. As a gift from the people of France to the United States in 1886, the Statue of Liberty holds a significant place. If we zoom in on Europe, we can locate France, while across the ocean lies the United States, where the Statue of Liberty stands proudly on the East Coast. Zooming in further, we can identify New York and New Jersey as the surrounding states. Positioned between them is the Upper Bay, commonly known as the New York Harbor, where Liberty Island, the home of the Statue of Liberty, resides. Expanding our view, we can observe Manhattan with its renowned New York buildings, as well as Governor's Island and Ellis Island, which served as an entry point for many immigrants from 1892 to 1954. Immigrants arriving by boat would catch their first glimpse of the Statue of Liberty, which has become a symbol of freedom. In her right hand, she holds a torch, while her left hand grasps a tablet bearing the Roman numerals representing the date of the Declaration of Independence. An intriguing detail not visible from the ground is a broken shackle and chain, symbolizing the abolition of slavery. Standing at a height of 46 meters, or 93 meters when measured from the ground up, equivalent to approximately a 20-story building, the Statue of Liberty held the title of the world's tallest statue upon its completion in 1886. However, the current holder of that title is the Statue of Unity in India. The Statue of Liberty is constructed of copper, initially resembling the color of a penny. Over time, approximately 20 years, exposure to air and rain caused the metal to oxidize, resulting in its iconic green hue. The copper metal is remarkably thin, with a thickness of only 2.4 millimeters, less than two American pennies. The statue was assembled in sections, requiring meticulous planning. Designed by the French sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, the process began with a small clay sculpture measuring 1.2 meters, roughly shorter than the average adult. Subsequently, a larger version, twice the size, was created using plaster, followed by a quarter-scale model. Each enlargement stage allowed Bartholdi to refine the statue's details further. To fit within the workshop, the full-size statue had to be constructed in separate pieces. At one point, to raise funds, the completed head of the statue was exhibited in France, while the right arm and torch were displayed in the United States. Visitors had the opportunity to climb to the top of each section for a fee. Transitioning from the plaster model to the final copper rendition involved the use of copper sheets and a technique called repoussé. This method entailed creating wooden molds adjacent to the full-size plaster model.

Image by Brett Jordan Recently, a Twitter post went viral, featuring the cheek and neck of a 92-year-old woman. She diligently applied UV protective moisturizers to her face for over 40 years, but neglected to do the same for her neck. It's uncertain if she had any additional procedures done, and the focus here is not on her specific case, but rather the broader benefits of sunscreen. Sunscreen not only protects against skin cancer but also helps prevent wrinkles and brown spots. The harmful UVA rays can lead to solar elastosis, the degeneration of deeper skin tissue.
