What events in the world can't be explained by science?
There is a magical geyser in Tagda in the upper reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River. The fountain of geyser is trickling. After a series of short pauses and eruptions, accompanied by a thrilling noise, high-temperature steam suddenly rushed out of the spring and immediately expanded into a water column with a diameter of more than 2 meters and a height of about 20 meters. The steam mass at the top of the column continued to roll and jumped into the blue sky. Its eruption cycle stops automatically after several minutes and tens of minutes, and then erupts again at intervals. Geysers are named after stopping spraying.
In addition to the geysers in China, there is a world-famous geyser near Reykjavik, Iceland. This spring is a circular pool with a diameter of 20 meters. It is filled with hot water at regular intervals, and the hot water slowly flows out. Soon, the clear water in Tankou rolled wildly, making a snoring sound similar to that when the pot was boiling. Then a water column rose into the sky, and there was boiling drizzle in the blue sky. The highest water column can reach 70 meters!
After investigation, scientists pointed out that suitable geological structure and sufficient underground water source are the most fundamental factors for the formation of geysers. In addition, there are some special conditions: first, geysers must have energy, and the fiery magma activity in the active area of crustal movement is the energy of geysers, so they can only be located in shallow areas. Secondly, to form intermittent eruption, a complex water supply system is needed to connect a deep spring channel. At the bottom of the channel, the groundwater is heated by the hot magma, while at the top of the channel, the spring water can't freely roll and boil under the pressure of the high-pressure water column. At the same time, due to the narrow passage, the spring water can't convection up and down at will. In this way, the water under the channel accumulates energy during the continuous heating process. When the water pressure in the upper part of the channel is less than the steam pressure at the bottom of the water column, the water in the channel is pushed out of the surface by the hot gas and hot water with high pressure and high temperature underground, resulting in a powerful eruption. After the eruption, the air pressure drops and the water temperature drops, so the eruption is suspended to store energy for the next new eruption.
Although scientists have unveiled the mystery of geysers, people are still attracted by its magnificent eruption landscape.
The magical Niagara Falls
Have you ever seen the acrobatic artist Brown Pavilion set up a steel rope with a length of 1 0,000 feet above the rapids of Niagara Falls, and successfully walked there empty-handed? Have you ever seen him walk through this 1000-foot-long steel cable blindfolded and covering his head? Have you ever seen the same person standing on a unicycle, walking on stilts, carrying people, sitting on a wire rope and making an omelet to eat? What makes the brave and great Brown Pavilion so powerful? That is Niagara Falls, which gives Browning great and magical power.
Niagara Falls is one of the most magical places in the world. Let's visit the legendary and mysterious Niagara Falls.
Niagara river is part of the border between Canada and the United States, separating new york from Ontario, Canada, and flowing northward from Lake Erie into Lake Ontario, with a total length of nearly 30 miles. It is located in the north and covers an area of 250,000 square miles, making it a smooth outlet for these lakes. Its maximum current reaches 250,000 cubic feet per second, which is very awesome. The river is divided into three sections by Strawberry Island and Grand Island, and there is only one channel for the first five miles. The length of the eastward American river is 15 miles to 16 miles; The Canadian River in the west is short, only two to three miles long. After passing through the big island, the two rivers meet again and then flow for 3 miles to reach the world-famous Niagara Falls.
The river can finally reach Lake Ontario, passing through seven miles of canyons, an open lake plain and seven to eight miles of land. Niagara Falls itself is also divided into two parts by Gothic Island. The horseshoe waterfall is close to 160 feet high and the top is nearly 3300 feet wide. The waterfall, which is about 10 feet higher than the Canadian part, but only 990 feet wide, is located on the American side.
Its formation lies in the unusual geological structure. In Niagara Canyon, the rock layer is almost horizontal, dropping only 19 feet to 22 feet per mile. The top of the rock is hard marble, and the bottom is soft geological layer which is easy to be eroded by water. The reason why the torrent can rush down from the cliff edge at the top of the waterfall is precisely because there is a hard marble geological layer on the soft stratum. During the Pleistocene, the huge continental glaciers retreated, the marble layer was exposed, and was submerged by the flood from Lake Erie, forming the Niagara Falls today. By calculating the speed of glacier retreat, this waterfall was formed at least 7000 years ago, and it may have been formed as early as 25000 years ago.
The formidable "Hell Gate" of Kunlun Mountain
"The sky is grey, the wild is vast, the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low." In the eyes of herders, the place with plenty of grass and water is their paradise for grazing. However, shepherds living in Kunlun Mountain would rather starve their cattle and sheep to death on the Gobi Desert because there is no fat grass to eat than dare to enter the ancient and silent valley of Kunlun Mountain.
This valley is the valley of death, known as the "gate of hell" of Kunlun Mountain. The valley is covered with wolves' fur, bears' bones, hunters' steel guns and lonely graves, rendering a gloomy and horrible smell of death to the world. The following is a true story witnessed by a geological team of Xinjiang Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources:
1983, a group of horses in Alar Ranch, Qinghai, strayed into Death Valley because they were greedy for the fat grass in the valley. A shepherd ventured into the valley in search of horses. A few days later, no one appeared, but the horse appeared. His body was later found on a mountain. Clothes tattered, barefoot, eyes bulging, mouth wide open, shotgun in hand, a pair of die unsatisfied. Curiously, he didn't find any scars or signs of being attacked.
Shortly after this tragic accident, the geological team working nearby was also attacked by Death Valley. It was July, 1983. It was very hot outside, but a snowstorm suddenly started near Death Valley. A thunder accompanied by a sudden snowstorm made the chef faint on the spot. According to the chef's memory, as soon as he heard the thunder, he suddenly felt numb, blacked out at the moment, and then lost consciousness. When the team members went out to work the next day, they were surprised to find that the original loess had turned into black soil. Like ashes, all animals and plants were "killed".
The geological team quickly organized to investigate the valley. After investigation, it is found that the magnetic anomalies in this area are extremely obvious and widely distributed. The deeper the valley, the higher the magnetic anomaly value. Under the action of electromagnetic effect, the charge in the cloud and the magnetic field in the valley lead to charge discharge, which makes this place a minefield. Lightning often targets running animals. This guess is the best explanation for several consecutive events.
American "Yellow Avenue" with planetary orbit data
In Teotihuacan, a famous American city, there is a broad avenue running through the north and south, which is called "Yellow Avenue". In the 10 century, when the Aztecs who first came here came to this ancient city along this avenue, they found that the city was empty. They thought the buildings on both sides of the avenue were the tombs of the gods, so they gave it this strange name.
1974, a man named Hugh Hariston claimed at the International American Congress held in Mexico that he had found a measuring device suitable for all its streets and buildings in Teotihuacan. Through computer calculation, the unit length is 1.059 m. For example, the heights of Feather Snake Temple, Moon Pyramid and pyramid of the sun in Teotihuacan are 265, 438+0, 42 and 63 "units" respectively, with a ratio of 65 and 438+0: 2: 3.
When Hariston surveyed the ruins of temples and pyramids on both sides of the Yellow Avenue, he found a surprising situation: the distance between those ruins on the Yellow Avenue just represents the orbital data of planets of the solar system. In the ruins of the temple around the castle, the distance between the earth and the sun is 96 units, Venus is 72, Mercury is 36 and Mars is 144. There is a canal behind the castle, which is 288 units away from the central axis of the castle, just the distance between Jupiter and Mars. 520 units away from the central axis is the ruins of an unknown temple, which is equivalent to the distance from Jupiter to the sun. After 945 units, there is another temple site, which is the distance from the sun to Saturn. Take 1845 "unit" to the center of the moon pyramid, which is exactly the orbital data of Uranus. If we extend along the "Yellow Avenue" in a straight line, we will reach two locations on the Cerro Gordo Mountain. The distances are 2880 and 3780 "units" respectively, which is exactly the distance between the orbits of Pluto and Neptune.
The "Yellow Avenue" is obviously based on the model of the solar system. The designer of Teotihuacan must know the planetary motion of the whole solar system and the orbital data between the sun and the planets. However, humans discovered Uranus in 178 1 year, Neptune in 1845, and Pluto in 1930. So, in the prehistoric times when chaos began, which invisible hand pointed out all this to the people who built Teotihuacan?
Australian rocks that tell the time
Can the stone tell the time? It sounds almost impossible, but in the vast desert southwest of Alice in central Australia, there is indeed a strange stone that can tell the time. This strange stone standing in the desert is 348 meters high and about 8000 meters in circumference, and its exposed part alone may weigh hundreds of millions of tons.
This strange stone tells people the passage of time by changing its color regularly every day: in the morning, when the sun rises and the sun shines, it is brown; At noon, the hot sun is blue-gray; In the evening, when the sun goes down, it is red. It is the "standard clock" for local residents, who arrange their agriculture and daily life according to its color change three times a day.
The strange stone will not only change color with the intensity of sunlight, but also change its image with the change of the angle of sunlight: sometimes it looks like the dorsal fin of a huge shark roaming leisurely in the sea; Sometimes it is like a black submarine floating on the sea; Sometimes like a giant in Tsing Yi, he lies on a soft white bed. ...
