This REMOTE Japanese Island May Hide a Secret…
Okinotorishima, Japan's southernmost island, has a strange appearance from satellite view. In this video, I explore what is going on at this island, why they are in cased in concrete, why there is a 3 story Japan Marine Science and Technology Center, and what this island's implications are on its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). What else is going on at this little coral reef/atoll in the middle of nowhere? I'm using Bing Maps in this video, but you can check it out on Google Maps/Earth as well. Let me know what you think, and remember this video is just a fun video exploring these islands and has no political views whatsoever on this matter.

Today, I explore the northernmost point of the world, Kaffeklubben island (aka Coffee Club Island), part of Greenland near Cape Morris Jesup, on Google Maps.

    At 3:12, you said that other countries wouldn't be able to pass through the EEZ without Japan's permission, but that is false. Within the territorial waters, nations only have to allow innocent passage, meaning that they can block some vessels. But within the larger EEZ, nations can only regulate resource extraction, but they can't control who enters and exits.

    My mom's family had been given a dacha to use during the Soviet Union, she'd bring her school friends there, later it was taken away because it was owned by the government. Now she built her own dacha at age 50. It is a log cabin that my mom and her husband did a lot of work for themselves because hiring workers is expensive. For example they caulked the whole cabin themselves using a material called jute, I think? For a long time it was only a summer home without hot water or central heating (however it did have a wood furnace). But we put a full kitchen there, there's a living room, and an upstairs sort of "loft" bedroom where my mom sleeps. And only recently have we managed to upgrade the dacha thanks to credit cards and my new job, we built an addition where a natual gas boiler and water boiler go, and also a full bathroom. The addition is not log cabin but a frame house (more like frame room), with a standing-seam metal roof over it. They also put radiators throughout the house. That's how dacha became a lot more comfortable, now we have hot water, heating, and even installed WiFi (before we were using mobile hotspot for internet but it wasn't working well). Oh and they built their own banya which is a common structure on these lots, it is kind of like a sauna. I personally don't care for it but my mom and her husband love it

    I’m from Belarus and I’ve spend all of my childhood summers there until I moved abroad. It was an amazing experience growing up. Our whole family gathered there in summer, including grandparents and occasionally cousins. My dacha was in a better area than the city in this video, we had multiple forests, streams and lakes nearby. Biking was a joy. I had many other neighbors kids around the place to spend time with. Our house was in our family for 3 generations, every few decades the house was rebuilt/upgraded or something else was added to our plot - like a sauna/bathhouse, or a cookout rotunda. We had grass plots I played ball in, inflatable pools, veggie growing lots, flower pens etc. about 5 years ago my dad bought a neighbor’s plot, upgraded the house into a scandinavian style house to be livable year round, and turned the neighbour’s house into a guest house. It’s a full fledged estate now. It makes me very sad to not be able to visit it for the last 5 years.

    Similar exist in London UK too. They are called "allotments" - an area to grow vegetables, divided between small "allotment" next to each other, for each person, typically who lives in flats (not in a house with a yard). However they have no small buildings there, just the little gardens.

    В советское время обычным людям некуда было тратить деньги и государство решило выдать (отсюда и "дача" DACHA) им земельные наделы, где они могут культурно отдохнуть на свежем воздухе и вбухать в эти 6 соток кучу денег и личного времени. Многие дачи находятся не далеко от жилых районов, там есть свет и вода - жители посещают их в любое удобное время. Раньше не у всех были кондиционеры и летом каменные многоэтажки сильно нагреваются - спать при такой температуре не комфортно - выход: спать на даче - она как правило не каменная, а если и каменная, то ближе к земле - отводит тепло в неё.

    from chatgpt surching the web Kaffeklubben Island, located off the northern coast of Greenland, was named by Danish explorer Lauge Koch in 1921. He chose the name "Kaffeklubben," which translates to "Coffee Club" in Danish, in honor of an informal gathering at the University of Copenhagen's Geological Museum. This "Kaffeklubben" was a daily lunchtime meeting where the museum's core staff convened to discuss various topics, fostering a sense of community and collaboration among geologists and researchers. The Geological Museum itself has a rich history, tracing its origins back to 1772 as part of the University of Copenhagen. Over the centuries, it has been a hub for geological research and education, housing extensive collections of minerals, fossils, and meteorites. The museum's tradition of daily coffee gatherings among its staff highlights the collaborative spirit that has long been a part of its culture. By naming the island after this coffee club, Koch paid tribute to the collegial atmosphere and the collaborative efforts of his peers at the Geological Museum. This gesture reflects the importance of academic camaraderie and the sharing of ideas in advancing geological sciences during that era.
