Can you please explain what eventually took the place of clipper ships in the world of maritime transportation? Were there any specific technological advancements or changes in consumer demands that drove this transition? Did the replacement of clipper ships significantly impact the global trade landscape or the economies of the countries that once heavily relied on them?

Are there any clipper ships still floating around today? I'm curious to know if these iconic sailing vessels, known for their speed and sleek design, have survived the test of time. Perhaps they've been restored and are now used for tourist cruises or private charters? Or maybe they're sitting in museums, preserved for future generations to admire. It would be fascinating to learn more about their current state and any efforts to keep them alive.
