Scientific Advancements Credited to International Shipping Services



July 2016 has been an exciting month for new scientific data, especially in the field of space research. Most significantly, The European Southern Observatory (ESO) captured the deepest view of the Orion Nebula that has yet been seen. ESO’s HAWK-I infrared instrument on the Very Large Telescope in Chile shed light on the birth of stars in the nebula, as well the relative amount of planetary mass objects: an amount much higher than previously thought by space researchers. 

The connection of this exciting discovery 1,350 light years away to international shipping services on our own planet is unclear at first. However, scientists, universities, and other research organizations are always trying to transport scientific equipment, like telescopes and generators for example, to regions with exceptional visibility of space. One such place is San Pedro de Atacama in Chile, where this recent picture of the Orion Nebula was taken, and where many space researchers do their job.


Experienced international shipping companies can help transport any equipment overseas, no matter how bulky or expensive. With the collaboration of safe services and efficient ports, the shipping process is reliable and hassle-free for the clients. Whether researchers decide to transport bulky telescopes to Chile, or a client wants to ship an automobile to Europe, Africa, or Asia, a reliable shipping company can get the job done. 

Transporting Antiques Overseas with the Help of International Shipping Services


Clients of international shipping companies in the United States are quick to recommend the freight forwarders’ services because of their own good experiences transporting goods overseas. However, many clients, as well as their peers with no shipping experience, can still get nervous when considering transporting fragile goods. 

When transporting antiques or other fragile effects, containers are a safe and efficient option. All international shipping services include the option between a twenty, forty, or forty five foot container, depending on the size and quantity of the client’s cargo. When dealing with fragile items, the container is loaded at the warehouse with care and concern for safety; whether the loading is completed by the client or a third party is decided by the shipper and the freight forwarding company.
From the warehouse, the container with antique cargo is moved to a port by an inland trucking and transportation company. These companies are typically vetted by the client’s shipping company, and have experience transporting containers.

The container is then loaded onto a vessel and shipped to its final destination. On the ship, the fragile items inside the container are protected from the elements, and are secure throughout the journey.
When clients have reservations about container shipping, they can also opt to transport their personal effects with air freight shipping. Although it is a more expensive option, air freight shipping is much faster.

An experienced international shipping company will always recommend the best option for each type of cargo and each client’s individual needs.
