The Secrets of Bermuda Triangle The project made by Akshay.S The contest 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The introduction The theories The facts The conclusion The bibliography 1. The subject of the investigation – The Bermuda triangle 2. The object – To get to know about the secrets of the Bermuda triangle and to tell them to you 3. The problems – 1. To get to know about the secrets of the Bermuda triangle from the different sources 4. 2. To describe it from the ecological point of view 5. The actuality of the work – the mystery of the Bermuda triangle hasn’t been studied yet, that’s why it’s very interesting 6. The methods of the object – search, systeming and analyzing the information The introduction World Ocean keeps many secrets, the first among them is the mystery of the Bermuda triangle, where many ships and airplanes have disappeared in the visible time. The legends about this strange area have already been known for about 100 years, but nobody can still explain strange phenomena taking place in the enchanted triangle. Location The Bermuda triangle is a legendary area of the Atlantic Ocean between Puerto-Rico, Florida and the Bermuda islands in which in the opinion of many explorers a lot of unaccountable events happen. The cause of speculations is the disappearance of ships and airplanes which happens here too often. As a rule the catastrophes in the sea and air take place very quickly. Before that all onboard tools usually fall out, particularly navigation system, control system and communications facilities. The hypotheses 1. Gases and vapors having unknown to science physical and chemical properties break out of the cracks on the ocean bottom to the surface of the Earth with enormous energy. These properties make magnetic fields destroying ships and airplanes. When power of this gases and vapors is not great, they don’t do any harm, but they cause hallucinations and delirium from the members of the crew. Because of that people plunge into the water and drown. The hypotheses 2. In the Bermuda triangle unknown physical phenomena results in transferences through space and time, because of that lost ships and airplanes cross to the fourth dimension, to the past or the future. 3. Thanks to the curvature of space the straight way to other worlds is open. The hypotheses 4. The reason for disappearance of ships and airplanes may be the hydrate of methane, which is formed at the depth of more than 300 meters at the temperature of about 2 degrees above zero. The conditions on the bottom of the Bermuda triangle are just the same. This substance is very unstable and easily turns into gaseous state. Powerful eruption of methane under water results in churning of it. Because of that the density of the water (or the air) descends sharply and they can’t secure floatation of ships (or flair for flying). The hypotheses Another variant is possible. The work of aircraft altimeters is based on the measurement of air density. Because of the spike of methane they begin to show, that the airplane is rising unexpectedly. And the pilot has to lose height into the water. Burning hydrate of methane The hypotheses 5. Solution of the secret of the Bermuda triangle may be rogue waves. Some time ago they were considered nonexistent, but now because of satellite survey their existence is proved. Usual stormy wave reaches maximum altitude of 15 meters. The super-wave, whose precise origin is until known, grow up in 30 meters. The vertical wall of water and deep “pit” can be seen before it. The hypotheses Such waves beat with the force of 100 tons, while contemporary vessels can withstand the impact of 15 tons. According to the facts of the satellite of the ESA every year in the world’s ocean in the area of 150 thousand square kilometers minimum 1 wave appears. Damages, were given by the Norwegian tanker named Wilstar in 1974 because of the wave of about some tens metres. The hypotheses 6. The Gulf Stream is an ocean current that originates in the Gulf of Mexico, and then through the Straits of Florida, into the North Atlantic. In essence, it is a river within an ocean, and like a river, it can and does carry floating objects. A small plane making a water landing or a boat having engine trouble will be carried away from its reported position by the current, as happened to the cabin cruiser Witchcraft on December 22, 1967, when it reported engine trouble near the Miami buoy marker one mile (1.6 km) from shore, but was not there when a Coast Guard cutter arrived. The hypotheses Sometimes in the Bermuda Triangle sins UFO, people from Atlantida, misty creatures, FBI, who tested Teslatechnology are accused. What is really happening in the Bermuda Triangle? Formerly, a lot of airplanes, ships have disappeared there. Some facts about the Bermuda triangle • Planes and ships have disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle. • Over 8,000 people have disappeared in the Triangle. • People have had instruments such as a compass stop working while in the Triangle. • There has also been strange yellow fog seen in that area. Flight 19 On December 5, 1945 five bomber TBM-3 “Avenger” were disappeared there. The last time someone disappeared in the Triangle • It has just been in 2003 when any one has disappeared in the Triangle. • There are still some reported technical difficulties from people going through the Triangle. “The weather is fine…” None of the ships gave SOS signals before disappearing. However, there are some cases, when not long before the disappearing the wireless operator of the ship broadcasted signals “very good” or “the weather is fine”. Suddenly broadcasting broke off. But a lot of pilots, captains managed to save ships, airplanes. Everybody tells that they saw a lot of vertical clouds. Electric facilities failed to work inside. People lost orientation but after the plane’s coming out of this zone the equipment started working as usual. Air maps warn about the danger of being influenced by magnetic fields in this area too. Another hypothesis According to I. Sanderson’s theory, the map of Earth has twelve mysterious zones. The center s of ten zones are located in 30 degrees of latitude. Two zones are located in the poles. One zone is located in the Sahara desert. What we’ve learnt • We’ve learnt a lot about the Bermuda Triangle and something that happens in it like how many people have disappeared in it. • We’ve learnt about the incidents in the Triangle such as flight 19. Conclusion The Bermuda triangle has been under learning since 1950. It is impossible to describe all the hypotheses explaining mysterious events in this research work, which take place in Bermuda. But we can continue the scientific work on this subject, because we have a lot of materials to study and interesting describes are waiting for us. It’s the mystery which excites brains of many people and sometime it will be revealed.
