The Unsolved Mystery Of Bermuda Triangle

The Unsolved Mystery Of

Bermuda Triangle

What is Bermuda Triangle……???• The Bermuda triangle is a mythical section of the Atlantic ocean roughly bounded

by Miami, Bermuda and Puerto Rico where dozens of ships and airplanes have disappeared. • Unexplained circumstances surround some of these accidents, including one in

which the pilots of the squadron of the U.S. Navy bombers became disoriented over the area; the planes were never found.• Other boats and planes have seemingly vanished from the area in good weather

without even radioing distress messages.• In fact, people navigate the area everyday without incident.

Bermuda Triangle theories and counter-theories ….!!!

• By the time author Vincent Gaddis coined the phrase “Bermuda triangle” in a 1964 magazine article, additional mysterious accident had occurred in the area, including three passengers planes that went down despite having just sent ”all’s well” messages.• Sources of fellow paranormal writers have named the triangle’s supposed

lethalness on everything from aliens, Atlantis and sea monster to time warps and reverse gravity fields where as more scientifically minded theories have pointed to magnetic anomalies, water spouts or huge eruptions of methane gas from the ocean floor.• In all probability, however, there is no single theory that solves the mystery.• Moreover, although storms, reefs and the Gulf Stream can cause navigational

challenges there, maritime insurance leader capital Lloyd’s of London doesn't recognize the Bermuda Triangle as an especially hazards place.

• Neither does the U.S. Coast Guard, which says:” In a reviews of many aircraft and vessel losses in the area over the years, there as bean nothing discovered that would indicate that causality were the result of anything other than physical causes. No extraordinary factors are ever been identified.”

Facts and Figures • The Bermuda Triangle is not small. In fact, it is quite large and covers an area of

440,000 miles of sea. This is larger than the combined area of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh & Maharashtra. • The triangle is certainly not fixed and its effect can be experienced outside of the

triangle too. • The disappearances are ascribed to UFO's and alien activity, city of Atlantis lost

under the triangle, and various other technical, natural and geographical reasons. • Whenever any plane or ship disappears in the Triangle, its debris cannot be found.

The reason behind this is that Gulf Stream runs near the triangle, which quickly gets rid of the debris. At least 1000 lives are lost within the last 100 years. On average, 4 aircraft and 20 yachts go missing every year.

• Inside the Bermuda Triangle, US Government has AUTEC (for Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Centre), which is located on the Andros Island of Bahamas. Here US Navy tests their submarines, sonar and other weapons. However many are of the view that it is more than just the testing centre. • People have experienced electronic fog in the triangle, which can be a Time Travel

Tunnel too. Pilot Bruce Gernon claims he lost 28 minutes after flying through a time-warping cloud tunnel. The plane went missing from radars, only to re-emerge in Miami Beach. (Source: The Fog by Bruce Gernon.) • One of the biggest and famous losses of US Military occurred in 1945. Five US

Navy Avenger torpedo bombers flew from Fort Lauderdale, Florida for a sortie to the island of Bimini. The mission had 14 men. After about 90 minutes, the radio operators received a signal that the compass was not working. After that the communication was lost. The bombers were never found. The three planes that went for their rescue also disappeared.

• The first person to report about Bermuda Triangle was Christopher Columbus. He wrote in his journals that inside the triangle, the ship's compass stopped working and he also saw a fireball in the sky.• Bermuda Triangle is one of the rare places on earth where the compass does not

point towards Magnetic North. Instead of that, it point towards true north, which creates confusion and that's why so many ships and planes lost its course in the triangle

Legend of the Bermuda Triangle !!

• The are referred to as the Bermuda Triangle, or devil’s triangle, covers about 5,00,000 square miles of the oceans of the southern tip of Florida.• When Christopher Columbus sailed through the area on his first

voyage to the new world, he reported that a great flame of fire (probably a meteor) crashed into the sea one night and that a strange light appeared in the distance a few weeks later.• He also wrote erratic compass readings, perhaps because at that time

a silver of the Bermuda tringle was one of the few places on earth where true north and magnetic north lined up.
