Why do crop circles come into being?

crop circles quest for truth

Text: repost Source: CCTV

Every year when the wheat is about to mature, a secret hidden in the wheat field emerges in front of people. In August 2004, mysterious patterns reappeared in farmland in many parts of the world, and as in previous years, most of them appeared in Britain. People don't understand: What super energy likes to create these exquisite and mysterious patterns in the wheat field? ...

crop circles quest for truth

198 1 and 1982, circles began to appear in Hampshire and West, England. Because most of them occur in wheat fields, they are also called "crop circles". By 1994, crop circles had appeared in 26 countries including the United States, Canada, Japan, Denmark and Germany.

Crop circles most often appear in Wiltshire, England, where there are the famous baimashan and the mysterious Stonehenge. There is a white horse statue on the hillside of baimashan, which is a symbol of ancient Britain. It is said that people's souls can be transported to the afterlife. There have been at least three crop circles under baimashan, and it is speculated that its mysterious figures may have some connection with ancient relics.

Not far from here stands another symbol of ancient Britain-Stonehenge, which was built in 3000 BC. For centuries, these huge stones have been associated with mysterious legends. Many people think that Stonehenge and crop circles convey the same message.

199 1 The huge crop circles that appeared next to Stonehenge in July are very complicated. It combines three geometric figures, as if it had been calculated accurately. The strange circle seems to pay tribute to the ancient ruins and remind people of the hidden mysterious connection between them. The combination of several circles in the crop circle is very similar to the Celtic cross. Celtic is a native of northern Europe, and some scholars believe that they built the world-famous Stonehenge 5000 years ago. In fact, many crop circles are very similar to religious patterns. There are several crop circles here that are exactly the same as the decorative patterns of the church.

There are many stories similar to crop circles in ancient English myths and legends. The earliest recorded example is 1678, which appeared in Hertfordshire in August. At that time, people thought that these phenomena beyond common sense must be the work of the devil.

Milton's theory

Professor Leibigate of the University of Michigan and others conducted detailed tests on plant cells collected from crop circles. They collected samples from nine countries where crop circles appeared and spent 10 years studying the plants in crop circles. Finally, Rebigert believes that bacteria, pesticides, special weather or fertilizers are not the reasons for the change of crop circles.

Dr. Terrence Milton, an atmospheric physicist, believes that the unstable tornado in summer is the cause of the strange circle. Milton found that crop circles in recent years are all on the side of the mountain or six or seven kilometers away from the mountain, which is easy to form tornadoes. But later, more complicated crop circles appeared, such as three circles connected together, and it was impossible for a tornado to "triple jump" in one place at the same time.

Later, Milton developed his theory, and a physical phenomenon called plasma cyclone caused this strange circle. Milton thinks that plasma cyclone is a highly charged rotating air mass. Sometimes it looks like a cylinder, sometimes it looks like a ball, maybe it will shine in the air. If it falls straight to the ground, it will rotate to form a circle or spiral.

Some of Milton's Japanese colleagues decided to test his theory with experiments. A group of physicists simulated the plasma cyclone in the laboratory, and it did form a very simple circle with a diameter of only one inch. The circle in the wheat field is 1000 times larger than it, and there are various shapes. Why is there such a big gap between laboratory results and reality?

A huge pictogram

Researchers Andrews and Delgard of crop circles found that there are usually no footprints around the farmland in crop circles, the bending mode of straw is not pressed out by feet, the dumped straw has no obvious damage, and some crop circles have been detected to have a lot of radiation, which is produced by powerful energy ... These are all unexplained by scientific theory.

Dr. Rebiget also found that about 40% of the plant seeds in the strange circle were mutated. Moreover, the growth nodes of plants in the strange circle are swollen, as if they were heated or suddenly burst into dense energy. There are obviously some small holes in the straw. Under the microscope, the cell walls of these plants seem to have been stretched and deformed, and they also seem to have been heated, and those tiny gaps have obviously become larger.

With more and more attention from researchers, these mysterious strange circles began to change, from one circle to two or three similar circles. 1994 giant pictographic crop circles with scorpions, bees and patterns also appeared.

We don't know whether crop circles are a miracle of nature. Many people associate the mysterious crop circles with extraterrestrial intelligent life. Are these symbols that can only be seen completely in the air some kind of information from aliens? Especially in 199 1, there are pictograms, some like boxes or keys, and some even like people!

Someone played a prank?

Some people say that they have found light or UFOs in the farmland where crop circles appear. 1990, photographer Alexander found a strange light in the wheat field, flying between two strange circles. It flies very low and is completely unaffected by the wind. Researchers believe that these lights are probably related to the formation of crop circles.

While the researchers were arguing about the causes of crop circles, at 199 1, two old British artists said that hundreds of crop circles were their works, and they had to sneak into crop circles every summer from 13.

Thousands of crop circles have appeared around the world. If these are just pranks, then these pranksters should not only know how to draw and calculate crop circles with exquisite graphics, but also be very careful not to wake farmers and livestock. Moreover, their success rate will reach 100%.

In some crop circles, wheat does not fall in one direction, but one presses the other and crosses into braids. It is obviously difficult for two old artists to flatten crops with boards. Crop circles researchers believe that the edges of artificial crop circles are rough, but the "real" crop circles are smooth, and the straw in artificial crop circles usually breaks, while the "real" crop circles are flat. Moreover, there will be no changes in artificial crop circles that cannot be explained by science.

During the crop circles in Oregon, USA from 65438 to 0997, Dr. Leibigert found that there were holes in the straw, and the farther away from the crop circles, the smaller the change. In addition, invisible magnetic particles were also found in crop circles and surrounding land. The farther away from the crop circle, the fewer the particles are, and they are evenly distributed, which seems to be beyond the reach of human beings.

Crop circles

A group of scientists at Southampton University are skeptical about this strange circle. They created a realistic strange circle by simply trampling on crops, which took only about 4 hours.

But something unexpected happened and they were discovered. Maybe this is the only crop circle prank that has been discovered. Andrews and Delgard rushed to crop circles. They quickly found the starting point and center of the circle and judged that the crop circle was artificial.

On the left side of Stonehenge, there is an open crop circle, and the bulletin board says "the best crop circle in Europe". Visitors must pay £ 3 to enter the venue. Tourists come from America, Holland and even Australia.

In fact, the annual crop circle full of mystery has become a hot spot for some British provinces and cities to attract tourists. Sometimes a farmer can earn 5000 pounds a weekend, and his income obviously exceeds the loss caused by wheat itself.

Science fiction movie "astronomical phenomena"

"Graham Hayes is an ordinary farmer in a small town in Philadelphia, USA. One morning, when he woke up, he and his family accidentally found several huge mysterious circular patterns in their corn fields. Soon the news that mysterious patterns appeared in farmland overnight spread all over the world, and people were terrified. With the appearance of strange circles, more strange things happen one after another. Finally, evil aliens broke into Hayes' house and attacked them. "This is the movie" astronomical phenomena ".

The director of Astronomy said: Crop circles are very beautiful and spectacular. They appear all over the world, many in Britain, many in the United States and 600 in India. This is a fascinating phenomenon that has always made me curious. Crop circles can be said to be the origin of the whole story, but the most important thing is people's curiosity about natural phenomena, which is the theme of the story.

In the film, crop circles are markers used by malicious alien creatures to communicate. But in reality, the huge strange circle in these movies is indeed man-made.

Baimashan cycle

Now, the crop circle craze has gradually subsided, and most people are beginning to believe that all this is just a huge prank. Although this statement cannot explain the plant variation and radiation enhancement of crop circles, people still think that the makers of crop circles are human beings themselves.

In August of 200 1 year, a huge crop circle appeared near baimashan, but many people had to believe that it was not man-made. This crop circle has a wide range, it takes 30 minutes to walk to the middle, and a * * * consists of 409 circles. This is a highland, and there are often various natural disasters. It rained the night this strange circle appeared.

Charlie, a crop circle researcher, said that they were the first people to find crop circles, where there were no footprints, dirt and broken straw. All the circles are well preserved, and no one has entered. If it's a prank, it will be messy. People can't do it perfectly, but it can be done in a few hours! Charlie and his friends think that crop circles are caused by more than just pranks. For them, the mystery of crop circles is far from being solved.

In recent years, crop circles are still emerging one after another, constantly testing people's exploration and discovery.
