Human beings may not know as much about the ocean as they do about the surface of the moon. There are many unsolved mysteries in the ocean, some of which have plagued mankind for hundreds of years. Because they don't know the answer, people often turn pale and fear. The bizarre disappearances in Bermuda are one of them. Bermuda sea area is located in the west of the North Atlantic. It is a triangular sea area formed by Bermuda Islands, Puerto Rico and the southern tip of Florida, covering an area of 3.9 million square kilometers. Because strange disappearances such as ships and planes that cannot be explained by common sense often occur here, it is gradually demonized and has the title of "devil's triangle". It seems that there are groups of demons living here for many years. They will stretch out their claws at any time and drag ships and planes into the abyss of destruction.
According to statistics, more than 150 ships and aircraft have disappeared in Bermuda waters, with more than 2000 people missing. In addition to some false rumors and exaggerated accidents, there are many real things. Among the many strange events, the collective disappearance of five US bombers and 14 pilots in December 1945 is the most impressive.
Some strange events in the Bermuda Triangle are related to the Sargasso Sea. In fact, the Bermuda Triangle is generally located in the Sargasso Sea. Sargassum is similar to the kelp we eat. They all belong to brown algae, but unlike kelp growing on seafloor rocks, Sargassum floats on the sea surface. Sargasso Sea is unique in the world. It is a "sea in the ocean" without boundary. It is characterized by a large number of floating algae. The water there is also the clearest sea water in the world. Because the Sargasso Sea is located in the center of the North Atlantic circulation, it lacks the wind force needed for sailing, and there is a large amount of algae floating on the surface of Shanghai, early sailors may be trapped here. Columbus was trapped here for three weeks and finally escaped death.
Of course, it is no longer the Columbus era. Obviously, the various anecdotes and anecdotes in the Bermuda triangle can not be completely attributed to the sea surface characteristics of the Sargasso Sea. People have put forward various conjectures, including the special magnetic field on the seabed, the strong undercurrent under the water, and so on. In recent years, British scientists have also put forward the "combustible ice" hypothesis: the natural gas hydrate on the seabed decomposes rapidly and produces a large number of methane bubbles. After rising to the water surface, it will reduce the density and buoyancy of seawater, resulting in shipwreck or air crash. However, there is still a lack of scientific evidence for all kinds of speculation, and scientists are redoubling their efforts. As long as we maintain scientific sensitivity and curiosity, it is only a matter of time before we uncover the mystery of Bermuda Triangle.
