Wenn wir in einer klaren Nacht in den Himmel schauen, können wir eine atemberaubende Vielzahl an funkelnden Punkten beobachten. Doch der Blick in den Sternenhimmel liefert immer nur zweidimensionale Bilder. Die dritte Dimension der Himmelsobjekte – also ihre Entfernung zur Erde – ist nicht so leicht zu bestimmen. Mit welchen Methoden Astronominnen und Astronomen den Kosmos dennoch vermessen und welche bedeutende Rolle das Bestimmen von Entfernungen im Weltall heute noch spielt, berichtet Hendrik Hildebrandt von der Universität Bochum in dieser Podcastfolge von Welt der Physik. *** Ein Beitrag von Julia Thomas, gesprochen von Ulrike Kapfer.

This termination leads to an event that would ultimately get Kate sent to the gallows.

The story of Julia Thomas begins where the life of the Dutchman himself ends. When Jacob Waltz died, he supposedly trusted the general location of the gold mine to Julia Thomas, who then spent years searching for the mine and stumbled onto some pretty promising leads. Ultimately though, Julia would end up joining some weird religion and selling maps to the lost gold mine that she never located. Whatever your opinion of the veracity of the Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine itself, you have to wonder why someone would leave behind a secure source of income and dedicate all of that time and money to finding a treasure... if they weren't entirely sure of its reality. #treasurehunter #goldmine #losttreasures #history #mystery #podcast

Es dauert 132 Jahre, bis Scotland Yard den grausamen Mordfall an der reichen Witwe Julia Thomas abschließend aufklären kann: Im Oktober 2010 finden Gärtner des britischen Naturfilmers David Attenborough zufällig auf dessen Grundstück im Londoner Stadtteil Richmond einen Schädel. Nach monatelangen Untersuchungen mit Hilfe modernster Kriminaltechnik wird dieser der ehemaligen Lehrerin Julia Thomas zugeordnet, die 1879 von ihrer Hausdame kaltblütig ermordet wurde. BRITPOD CRIME auf Spurensuche in einem faszinierenden Fall, der zeigt, "wie gute alte Detektivarbeit, historische Aufzeichnungen und technischer Fortschritt Hand in Hand gehen können", so Chefermittler Clive Chalk von Scotland Yard. -- Die Tat: London 1879. Die reiche Witwe Julia Thomas wird von ihrer Hausdame Kate Webster umgebracht. Die Mörderin zerstückelt die Leiche, kocht einzelne Körperteile in einem grossen Topf aus und verfüttert das Fett der Toten an hungrige Kinder aus der Nachbarschaft. Den Kopf vergräbt sie im Garten. Anstatt den Tatort zu verlassen und unterzutauchen verfolgt die Mörderin einen anderen Plan: Sie übernimmt die Identität der Toten, trägt ihre Kleider und sogar ihr Gebiss. Doch der Schwindel fliegt schnell auf: Kate Webster wird verhaftet und nach einem Prozess am Galgen hingerichtet. Doch der endgültige Beweis, dass sie tatsächlich die Mörderin ihrer Vorgesetzten war, konnte nie erbracht werden. Bis zum 5.

Treasure Hunting in Arizona - Lost Dutchman Gold Mine

Treasure Revealed

Lets start big, and lets talk about Arizona's most prolific treasure story, and that is The Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine Treasure East of Phoenix, Arizona, up in the precipitous Superstition Mountains, lies a hidden treasure responsible for ruining the lives of more than a few of its seekers, at least according to legend. This treasure is named the Lost Dutchman Mine, and the legends surrounding it are as vast as they are inconsistent. One of the most well-documented accounts can be found in The Curse of the Dutchman's Gold, written by Helen Corbin. It pertains to a man named Jacob Waltz, a native of Wurttemberg, Germany, who moved to the US in 1846. He became a naturalized citizen in July 1861, and thereafter became a prospector. Between 1872 and 1878, Waltz, along with his colleague Jacob Weisner, was said to have found gold in a quartz vein that was around 18 inches wide. They then proceeded to mine some ore, which they cached nearby. Work continued on the mine for some time, until Weisner's untimely death at the hands of a band of Apaches. Distraught, Waltz decided to leave the mine behind. He took enough ore to sustain himself, concealed the mine's entrance, and never looked back. He also never bothered to file a claim for the mine. Waltz moved to Phoenix, and set up a farm by the Salt River. Waltz then transitioned to a life of farmsteading from prospecting. One of his customers was a woman named Julia Thomas, a baker whom he delivered eggs to. In 1891, Waltz found out that Julia was in debt. With her bakery on the line, Waltz took pity on her and offered to help her pay off the debt. He then showed her some of his gold ore valued at $1,500, much to Julia's bewilderment. In her time knowing him, she only thought of him as a farmer of modest means. Waltz then told her that he had experience in trading gold from Casa Grande, and that he would ship that ore to a smelter in San Francisco. He expressed that he had a lot of familiarity with how gold trades are done, and promised to lend her most of the returns from this one. He then proceeded to tell her about the cache, and the mine. He professed that he deliberately gave up the rights to it, recounting his grief due to the loss of his partner decades prior. Waltz admitted to Julia that his sorrow was such that he never wanted to work there again. And even if he wanted to, he continued, he was too old for prospecting. Nevertheless, Waltz promised that he would take Julia to the mine, and pass over ownership to her once she's seen it for herself, asking only for a small share of the wealth. He and Julia planned to go to the Superstitions in the spring of the following year, along with Julia's adoptive son Rhinehart Petrasch, to take the remaining gold in Waltz's cache. However, things would take an unfortunate turn when Waltz's house was flooded that summer. The Salt River is by and large a relatively dry river, but that summer's torrential rains had swelled it with excessive runoff. Waltz would catch pneumonia from this flood, and die of it on October 25, 1891, a scant few months before their planned trip. Just before he died, he supposedly told Julia and Rhinehart that there was a portion of gold ore he set aside for himself under his fireplace. He was also reported to have drawn them a rough map that revealed the location of the mine. But Julia and Rhinehart would unfortunately be robbed of Waltz' final gift, and even more distressful was the fact that they would never manage to find the mine. As sparse in details as this story is, it was enough for thousands of treasure hunters to trek the Superstitions in search of the Lost Dutchman Mine. Several of these seekers would lose their lives, with some even meeting unexplainable or grisly fates. Only a few individuals were able to rein in their hunger for Waltz' treasure trove and come home with something of at least some substance. One such individual was a man named Bob Corbin. In 1957, Corbin started to look for the legenda --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/treasure-revealed/support

In the world of the lost dutchman treasure hunters there was a group of people that used to run the superstition mountains. Even though most of the "mafia" is gone there is still a group that still keeps a watchful eye on all the treasure hunters . This tale involves two German men, Jacob Waltz and Jacob Weiser. However, Blair argued that there is a strong likelihood that there never was a second man named Weiser, but rather that a single person named Waltz was, over the years, turned into two men as the legend of the Dutchman's mine evolved. Blair contended that this story can be divided into "hawk" and "dove" versions, depending on whether the German(s) are said to behave violently or peacefully. In most versions of the tale, Jacob Waltz located a rich gold mine in the Superstition Mountains (in many versions of the story, they rescue or help a member of the Peralta family and are rewarded by being told the location of the mine). Weiser is attacked and wounded by marauding Apaches, but survives at least long enough to tell a man called Dr. Walker about the mine. Waltz is also said to make a deathbed confession to Julia Thomas, and draws or describes a crude map to the gold mine. John D. Wilburn in his book Dutchman's Lost Ledge of Gold (1990), wrote that the Bulldog Gold Mine near Goldfield, Arizona, fits very well the description Jacob Waltz gave as the location of his 'lost mine'. Furthermore, Wilburn stated that geology indicates that there is no gold in the Superstition Mountains, which are igneous in origin. (However, in some versions, the 'mine' is actually a cache put there by the Peraltas.) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jeffrey-schreckler/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jeffrey-schreckler/support
