Researchers in Wisconsin recently discovered a long-lost 'ghost ship' in Lake Michigan that has been hidden for nearly 140 years since an 1886 storm. The ship, which was lost to history, was found by the Wisconsin Historical Society and is believed to be the remains of the SS Southfield, a steamship that sank during a severe storm on November 19, 1886. The discovery was made using advanced sonar technology and confirmed through further excavation and analysis. The find sheds new light on the region's maritime history and will likely be the subject of further research and study.
