In an instant, there was white light in front of me and I couldn't see anything. After a while, it disappeared.
The origin of the name "Bermuda Devil's Triangle" is that on February 5th, 1945, the American 19 suddenly disappeared during training. At that time, the scheduled flight plan was a triangle, so people later extended the western Atlantic Ocean on the southeast coast of the United States from Bermuda in the north to Miami in the south of Florida, then passed through the Bahamas, crossed Puerto Rico, and reached San Diego near the 40 ~ (th) longitude line. Hundreds of ships and planes crashed in this area, and thousands of people died here. From 1880 to 1976, there were about 158 disappearances, most of which occurred in the 30 years since 1949. 97 people are missing, and at least 2000 people are killed or missing here. These strange and mysterious disappearances mainly occurred in an area called "the sargasso sea" in the western Atlantic Ocean, which is a wide water area between 20-40 degrees north latitude and 35-75 degrees west longitude. Here is the world-famous Mexican warm current, which is day and night 120- 190 km, with many whirlpools, typhoons and tornadoes. Not only that, the sea here is 4000-5000 meters deep, and there is the Puerto Rico Trench, which is more than 7000 meters deep and the deepest is 92 18 meters.
cause
So far, the explanations of the Bermuda Devil's Triangle can be summarized into the following categories: one category thinks that these disappearances are caused by supernatural reasons and are related to whether there are alien flying saucers at work. The second category thinks that it is caused by natural causes, such as geomagnetic anomalies, seabed holes, and some people even put forward theories such as bubbles, clear-sky turbulence, water bridges and black holes. And use some strange natural phenomena to explain that "everything is in the devil's triangle." Recently, a British geologist and Professor kleiner from Leeds University put forward a new viewpoint. He believes that the chief culprit that often causes shipwrecks or shipwrecks in Bermuda waters is the huge biogas bubbles generated at the bottom of the sea. Crystals composed of frozen water and biogas have been found under the seabed strata in Bermuda. When a severe earthquake occurs on the seabed, the massive crystals buried in the ground are turned out, and they will vaporize rapidly because of the reduction of external pressure. A large number of bubbles rise to the water surface, which reduces the density of seawater and loses its original buoyancy. At this time, ships passing through here will sink to the bottom of the sea like stones. If there happens to be a plane passing by at this time, when the biogas meets the burning plane engine, it will undoubtedly burn and explode immediately and disappear. On the contrary, some people think that these strange disappearance phenomena are not related to each other, thus denying the existence of Mu Bai in the Devil's Triangle. Whether the mysterious veil of Bermuda has been unveiled remains to be verified by future generations.
situation
Of all the strange events that have happened since the beginning of this century, the most puzzling is probably the disappearance of a series of planes and ships in the Bermuda Triangle.
The so-called Bermuda Triangle refers to a triangular sea area from Bermuda in the north, Miami in Florida in the west and Puerto Rico in the south. In this 400,000-square-mile sea area, hundreds of planes and ships have mysteriously disappeared here since 1945. Of course, these disappearances do not include mechanical failure, political kidnapping and pirate robbery, because these do not belong to the category of mysterious disappearance.
Because of the overlapping events, people have nicknamed this sea area "Devil's Triangle", "Sea of Bad Luck", "Magic Sea" and "Shipyard Cemetery". These horns, in turn, set off the mysterious and terrible atmosphere unique here.
Now, the Bermuda Triangle has become synonymous with mysterious and incomprehensible disappearance.
On the familiar earth, how can there be such a magical and unexplained corner? How can a series of incredible things happen? What is causing trouble in the Bermuda Triangle?
1. Missing aircraft group
Captain Taylor of the US Air Force is an experienced pilot. He flew the plane for 2500 hours in the air, which is not a record that ordinary people can do.
1945 65438+On February 5th, Captain Taylor was the captain of19 Flying Team. He led the flying team to take off from Fort Lauderdale Airport in Florida. He and 14 pilots flew five revenge torpedo bombers to perform flight training missions.
Everything is normal and the weather is fine. This is an ideal flight weather.
Their task is to fly a triangular voyage, flying east over the Bahamas, then flying north, and then returning along the last edge of the triangle.
When the flight team flew over the Bahamas, the base suddenly received a report from Captain Taylor and pilot Bowles that the compass was out of order and they could not calculate their altitude. By the time the film arrived, the signal received by the base headquarters was getting worse and worse, as if all the pilots were in a panic. Of course, the headquarters also panicked.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the headquarters heard Captain Taylor's volunteer and trembling call:
"Abnormal phenomenon happened! We don't know why we deviated from the course. "
Headquarters said, "report your position!" "
Taylor: I don't know where I am! I don't know where I am! " "
Command: "Then fly west!" "
Taylor: "There's something wrong with the azimuth meter. The pointer doesn't move." We can't tell the direction, all we see is the sea. "
The base command didn't feel the seriousness of the problem at that time. Because the fuel on the plane is enough for a four-hour flight. Besides, Captain Taylor's flying skills are reassuring. The commander immediately ordered another plane with normal instruments to replace Taylor.
But ten minutes later, the base headquarters received a report again:
"Call the police! We are lost again now, and we can't see the land ... Everything is in a mess, and even the sea seems to be different from usual! "
Then came Captain Le Tai's voice: "We seem to be over the Gulf of Mexico ..."
The base was surprised. Why did they deviate from the course and fly to the Gulf of Mexico? In the afternoon, these five planes flew blindly without knowing their positions. The dialogue between them greatly shocked the base, and all the instruments failed. Their readings are all different. They didn't even see the sunset. If they see the sun, they will correct their route. Finally, finally came the voice that broke the heart of the base:
"We're finished ... and started to sink into the water ..."
The radio signal is getting weaker and weaker until it disappears. The hour hand is pointing to 7: 04. Captain Taylor, together with his 14 partner and those five planes, disappeared from the earth.
The headquarters found it incomprehensible and immediately decided to send a plane to look for it.
A few minutes later, a "Martin" maritime search machine was ordered to take off. This search machine is piloted by 13 crew.
However, this maritime search machine also disappeared. It seemed to go straight to the mouth of the missing tiger and disappeared quietly.
In just a few hours, six planes and 27 pilots were all missing, which is simply inexplicable. Are they swallowed up by the sky?
The next day, the US authorities attached great importance to this incident and conducted the largest search and rescue activity in history. The US Navy dispatched 2 1 ship, including aircraft carriers, hundreds of speedboats and motorboats, and more than 3O0 aircraft, which means that the US Navy has used all available ships and aircraft near Florida waters. I searched every inch of the sea from Bermuda to the Gulf of Mexico and found nothing.
According to common sense, if the plane crashes into the sea, it should at least leave traces of oil slick on the sea surface. However, nothing was left, as if nothing had happened. The sea is still so blue and quiet.
The official in charge of search and rescue said to his boss in dismay:
"God knows what happened, and we can't even estimate what might happen!"
After this incident was exposed, Bermuda became famous. With people's attention to this sea area, the incredible disappearance of the plane has become even more frightening-
At 22: 30 on February 27th, 1948+65438, a large DC-3 civil aviation flight took off from San Francisco airport and passed over Bermuda. The ground control tower heard the captain's surprised voice:
"What's going on? Are they all singing Christmas songs? "
No one thought of the meaning of this sentence.
At 4: 30 am on the 28th, the flight also sent a telegram to the airport-"Close to the airport, lights visible, ready to land." The airport is ready to land.
But this DC 3 plane never landed at the airport. It disappeared before landing, of course, the crew and all the passengers did not survive.
I kept normal contact with the airport a minute ago, and this disappearance seems to have happened in an instant. Like a hole in the sky, the plane fell into the hole and became silent.
2. The navigator's graveyard
What kind of sea area is the Bermuda Triangle? From what Columbus saw and heard when he sailed through this sea area for the first time, we may get a glimpse of this sea area 300 years ago.
1502, when Columbus was in America for the fourth time, he passed through the Bermuda Triangle.
On this day, Columbus bowed, but he saw a clear sky in Wan Li and the sea was calm. Suddenly, the wind suddenly blew and the sky was dark. Dozens of meters high waves came at the fleet like walls.
Sailor Qi Xin tried to change course, but all the navigation instruments on board failed. The needle on the magnetic compass does not point to true north, but to the northwest, deviating by 6 degrees. The ship lost control and was pushed by the wind and waves.
Columbus was lucky. After several days and nights of twists and turns, the ship finally didn't sink. To his surprise, the storm that fell from the sky came to an abrupt end, and it ended when the storm said it was over, and it was calm immediately.
Columbus recorded all this in detail in his diary. In a letter to the king of Spain, he also talked about this unforgettable experience-
At that time, the waves rolled for eight or nine days without seeing the sun and stars ... I have seen all kinds of storms in my life, but I have never encountered such a long and violent storm.
The problem is that Columbus is still alive, and his experience at least belongs to those that can be explained. So, what happened to those who didn't survive? Of course, this is an unexplained experience that no one has ever seen-
1840 In August, a French sailing ship "Lochari" was leaving Bermuda. The ship is pulling the sails, and the sails are full, which shows that it cares about sailing quietly. What is puzzling is that it seems to drift aimlessly in the wind. People rowed in surprise. They found the ship quiet. Only when I got on the ship did I know that there was no one on board, but the goods such as silks and satins in the cargo hold were intact, and the fruit was still fresh and untouchable. However, why did all the sailors on the ship run away? No one can answer. The only creature on board is a semi-hungry canary, but it can't talk.
I know exactly what happened on the ship, but everyone is sure that something incredible must have happened on the ship.
1872, another strange thing happened on the sea in this area.
Maria Celeste, a masthead ship, is floating at 100 nautical mile west of Azores. When it was discovered, there was no one on board, there was delicious food on the table in the cabin, and there was still unfinished coffee and water in the teacup. The wall clock on the wall runs normally, and there is a small bottle of oil on the sewing machine table. All this can't explain why the owner abandoned the ship except that the ship didn't encounter wind and waves.
1944, the Cuban cargo ship "Rubicon" also had a strange situation in which people went on board in the same sea area. When people boarded the floating boat, only one dog was lying alone on the deck.
1963, the American oil tanker "Marin Case" crossed this sea area. On the second day of sailing, the ship's operator also informed the shore: "The navigation is normal, and the position is 26 degrees 4 minutes north latitude and 73 degrees west longitude." But this was the last message that Marin Keith sent to the world, and it has since disappeared. No one can imagine that such an oil tanker equipped with modern navigation and communication equipment actually disappeared from this sea area, leaving no oil flowers.
The American cargo ship "One Eye" is a giant cargo ship with a length of 542 feet and 309 sailors. 19 18 was filled with manganese ore in Brazil in March and disappeared on the way back to Norfolk, Virginia. At that time, the weather was fine, and there was no possibility that the ship would be overturned by the wind and waves. It is speculated that "One Eye" was probably attacked by a German submarine during the war. However, after the war, people looked up the wartime records of the German navy and found that there were no German submarines on the "one-eyed" route at that time. How did such a huge ship equipped with radio communication equipment disappear without even sending out a "SOS" signal?
1in August, 935, the sailors of the Italian cargo ship Lex witnessed the American schooner Radhomer being gradually swallowed up by the waves, and they were desperate to save the drowning sailors of Radhomer from the sea. But five days later, Lex's sailors were surprised to find Radhomer floating on the sea. This is not an illusion, because the sailors on the Lex, together with the sailors on the Radhomer rescued by them, boarded the schooner Radhomer.
How can a sunken ship drift at sea? People can't explain it
3. Who is making trouble here?
Since there are so many strange events here, people naturally want to ask what tricks are being played here.
195 1 10 In June, a Brazilian warship sailed in the southwest of Arroyo Islands, and then the ship and the sailors disappeared mysteriously. The next day, Brazil sent planes and ships to look for it. When a seaplane was searching the sea surface, it found a huge black object at the bottom of the sea, and the speed was amazing. This shows that this is by no means an underwater creature, and its huge volume also shows that it is not a fish in the water. On this night and the next morning, someone saw a strange and extremely bright light in this sea area, but no one could tell where this strange object and strange light came from.
The memory of people who escaped from this devil's triangle may provide us with some clues.
A captain of the American shipwreck rescue company said that he once returned to Florida from Puerto Rico. On the way, the needle of the ship's compass suddenly swung violently. Although the diesel engine is still running, it has no power. The waves came at the ship from all directions without a horizontal line. There is thick fog all around the ship. He hurriedly ordered the engineer to go ahead at full speed and finally rushed out of the fog. Strangely, there are no big waves and fog on the sea outside this fog. The sailors said that they had never seen such a strange thing in their lives.
1972 In September, when the American cargo ship Nightmare sailed through the Bermuda Triangle, all the lights on board suddenly dimmed and the compass failed. The sailors felt that something was wrong, so they quickly sailed the boat to the west according to the land lamp. After sailing for a while, they found that the ship was originally heading north, but in any case, it could not correct its course. At this time, a huge black object appeared in the sky, covering the stars. A strong light shines on this object. Soon, it disappeared again and the ship resumed normal navigation.
Is there any connection between this black object in the sky and the underwater black object mentioned above? Or, are they the same object? No one can answer. People can only say: this is intriguing.
Obviously, there is a mysterious, powerful and invisible force here.
1977 In February, a private seaplane skimmed the Bermuda Triangle. Some friends were eating on the plane when they suddenly found that the knives and forks on the plate were bent. At that time, the compass pointer was deflected by dozens of degrees, and they accelerated to escape from this terrible navigation area. When they got home, they found that the tape recorder recorded strong waves.
Sea, how can you make a sound?
An old pilot said a strange thing. On one occasion, he flew at night at an altitude of 7000 meters in the Bermuda Triangle. At first, everything was fine. Suddenly, he found lights on both sides of the wing. He thought it was the reflection of the cabin glass, but the reflection could not be so strong. The strong light blinded him, and he couldn't even see the instruments clearly. This plane is as bright as a transparent glass object. He looked up and felt that the sky was too bright to see the stars. He quickly turned off the automatic joystick and controlled the plane by hand. After a few minutes, the light gradually disappeared and everything returned to normal.
Where does the light in the night sky come from? The old pilot can't answer it, and I believe you can't either.
4. Various explanations of scientists
Scientists all over the world don't seem to allow the mystery of Bermuda Triangle to continue. They used all kinds of knowledge they knew to explain all kinds of strange things that happened in the Bermuda Triangle.
Among various interpretations, the following are representative:
(l) magnetic field theory. Among all kinds of strange events in Bermuda Triangle, compass failure is the most common one. This is reminiscent of geomagnetic anomalies. It has also been noted that most of the accidents in the Bermuda Triangle occur at the beginning and middle of the lunar month, which is the time when the moon has the strongest influence on the earth's tides.
The earth's magnetic field has two magnetic poles, namely the geomagnetic south pole and the geomagnetic north pole. But their position is not fixed, but constantly changing. Geomagnetic anomalies are likely to cause compass errors and make planes and ships get lost.
There is also a view that there is a huge magnetic field at the bottom of Bermuda Triangle, which will lead to the failure of compasses and instruments.
1943, a doctor named Isaac made an interesting experiment with the cooperation of the US Navy. They set up two magnetic field generators in the Bermuda Triangle, and lost more than ten times the magnetic force. Let's see what happens. When the experiment began, strange things appeared. Green smoke immediately surged around the hull, and the ship and people disappeared. After the experiment, all the people on board were stimulated. Some people return to normal after treatment, while others are insane. Afterwards, Dr. Issa committed suicide inexplicably. Before his death, he said that what happened in the experiment was related to Einstein's theory of relativity. He left no comments, so that even the experiment itself became a mystery.
(2) Black hole theory. Black hole refers to the phenomenon of high magnetic field and super density of those late stars in celestial bodies. Although invisible, it can devour all substances. Many scholars have pointed out that the disappearance of planes and ships in Bermuda Triangle is quite similar to the phenomenon of cosmic black holes, and it is difficult to explain why they suddenly disappeared without a trace.
(3) infrasound. Sound comes from the oscillation of objects. The reason why people can hear the sound low and crisp is because the oscillation frequency of objects is different. A sound with a frequency less than 20 times per second is an infrasound that is inaudible to human ears. Although the cheers are inaudible, they are extremely destructive.
The complex terrain in Bermuda waters intensifies the generation and intensity of infrasound. Infrasound is caused by submarine volcanic eruption near the coast of Puerto Rico, wave and seawater temperature fluctuation and change.
(4) Water bridge theory. It is believed that there is an undercurrent at the bottom of Bermuda Triangle, which is usually different from the surface current. Because the wreckage of Bermuda's missing ship was found on the coast of St. Dadu Island in the southeast Pacific Ocean. Of course, only this undercurrent can push the wreckage of this ship to Shengdu Island; When the upper and lower currents collide, it is a shipwreck. After the shipwreck, the wreckage of those ships was dragged far away by the undercurrent, which is also the reason why the wrecked ship could not be found at the crash site.
(5) Clear sky theory of turbulence. Clear-sky turbulence is a very special wind. This kind of wind is generated at high altitude. When the wind speed reaches a certain intensity, the angle of the wind direction will change. This sudden change of wind speed direction is often accompanied by infrasound, also called "cavitation". Aircraft in flight will tremble violently when they meet it. Of course, in severe cases, the plane will be torn to pieces by it.
Unfortunately, these are only hypotheses, and each hypothesis can only explain a certain phenomenon, but can't completely solve the mystery. What's more, in addition to the unprovoked disappearance of planes and ships, there are some incredible strange things on the seabed and sea in Bermuda!
Among the mysterious maritime events of this century, the most famous and puzzling are a series of plane and ship disappearances in Bermuda Triangle. Bermuda is a strange place. Dozens of planes and 100 ships crashed here. Not only that, there are many rumors in Bermuda that the time tunnel has disappeared and suddenly appeared, making people young.
All over the world, people will feel creepy when they mention Bermuda. A scientific team thinks there may be a huge meteorite here. According to research, about 1500 years ago, a huge meteorite flew from space and fell into the Atlantic Ocean. This big meteorite is like a big black hole, with great attraction, even light can be attracted, let alone airplanes and ships. Belize on the Mexican peninsula once flew over a meteorite, destroying all living things on the earth, and its dust filled the earth for ten years. Bermuda is not far from Belize, and it is unknown whether it is affected by two factors.
If the statement that meteorites caused Bermuda's Devil's Triangle is true, then all kinds of strange phenomena around 30 degrees north latitude can also be explained from the viewpoint of meteorite theory.
Holbiger, a famous western scientist, once put forward an amazing theory that the earth has captured four satellites in a history of 4.6 billion years, that is, four satellites. These four moons coincide with the four geological ages of the earth and the four major changes of the earth. The moon we see today is the fourth satellite of the earth. The first three satellites were too close to the earth in operation, and all of them finally fell. Before they landed in three places near the north equator of the earth, they exploded, destroying the spirit of everything in the world, and the earth was deformed to form the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. Except for the Indian Ocean, the other two huge satellites are all near 30 degrees north latitude, which not only form three oceans, but also drastically change the core structure of the earth, making the earth rotate and tilt its orbit around the sun.
However, some people think that the earth's oblique orbit is caused by the melting of hundreds of millions of ice and snow on Greenland with an area of 2 175600 square meters, resulting in the loss of the earth's center of gravity. Some people think that the oblique movement of the earth (inclined to the northwest) is not caused by the above two reasons, but by the moon, the satellite of the earth. Because the moon always goes around the earth, the earth is pinned down by the moon. Opinions vary, but these opinions are far from the mysterious theme of 30 degrees north latitude.
It is said that hundreds of planes and ships have mysteriously disappeared in this sea area since 1945. There are so many disappearances that the world can't believe that they are all accidental. The so-called Bermuda Triangle refers to a triangular sea area from Bermuda in the north, Puerto Rico in the south and Florida in the west, with an area of about/kloc-0.00 million square kilometers. Because of the disappearance and overlapping of this sea surface, the world calls it "the black hole of the earth" and "the devil's triangle".
1945 One day in February, Captain Taylor, the captain of the 19 air force of the United States, led 14 pilots and took off from Fort Lauderdale Airport in Florida with five Avengers torpedo bombers for flight training. Taylor is an experienced pilot with a record of 2599 hours of air flight. His flying skills should not be a problem at all to complete such a training task. But when the flying fleet flew over the Bahamas, the base suddenly received a phone call from Captain Taylor: "My compass is out of order!" " "I am in an unconnected land!" In the next two hours, the radio communication system was intermittent, but it still showed that they were flying generally north and east. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the headquarters received a phone call from Captain Taylor: "I don't know where I am. I don't know where. " Then the radio signal became weaker and weaker until there was silence. The headquarters felt that something was wrong and immediately sent a seaplane to take off and search. Half an hour later, people on an oil tanker saw the flames and the seaplane crashed.
In just six hours, six planes and 15 pilots suddenly disappeared. They disappeared for no reason. This incident greatly shocked the American authorities, and the military is determined to investigate the matter thoroughly. The next day, in the sea area of 6 million square kilometers, 300 planes and 2 1 ships including aircraft carriers were dispatched to conduct the largest search. It took five days to search every sea surface from Bermuda to the Gulf of Mexico, but the six planes were still not found.
Over the years, people have different opinions about this incident, and Mu Bai 3 Sea Area has also become famous with the disclosure of this incident. However, the unidentified disappearance of ships or planes in this area can be traced back to the middle of19th century.
scientific exploration
1979, a joint investigation team organized by American and French scientists discovered a huge underwater pyramid at the bottom of Bermuda. According to the photos taken by Charles Beriz, honorary curator of Miami Museum, we can see that this underwater pyramid is bigger than the Great Pyramid of Egypt. There are two black holes on the tower, and the sea water passes through at high speed.
The discovery of underwater pyramids makes the mystery of Bermuda Triangle more mysterious. Is it man-made or natural? What does it have to do with the successive shipwrecks in Bermuda? These all need further discussion. Bermuda, the black hole, has not bottomed out yet.
The non-existent Bermuda Devil Triangle
Author: Fang
Bermuda is a famous tourist attraction in the Atlantic Ocean, but it is associated with a terrible name. There is no such division as Bermuda Triangle in geography, but the proponent of the mysterious phenomenon simply drew three lines to form a triangle, namely Bermuda, Miami, Florida and San Juan, Puerto Rico, and then claimed that there were many inexplicable ships and planes missing in this sea area, which was called the "Devil Triangle". Some people even claim that there are many such "devil's triangles" on the earth, and the more famous one is the "devil's sea" in Japan. After countless articles and books, this statement has become more and more popular. It is not only a household name, but also believed by some professionals. For example, the China Ocean Information Network sponsored by the National Ocean Information Center also regards the Bermuda Triangle as a "sea wonder" and a "sea mystery", and has included several related articles. Ocean World, the main popular marine science magazine in China, introduced the Bermuda Triangle to China people for the first time in the early 1980s.
Later, this topic was mentioned many times. Until 2000, there were at least two articles about it. One was Bermuda: Zhao Juntao's The Triangle of Death (No.2, 2000), and the other was Yang Yang's Mysterious Zone in the Sea (No.4, 2000), claiming: "For decades, many ships and planes have mysteriously disappeared here and never left any traces. In this sea area, unmanned ghost ships are floating around, and strange lights and fog are flickering ... Bermuda Triangle is called "Death Triangle", "Devil Triangle" and "Magic Sea" ... "(Bermuda: Death Triangle by Zhao Juntao) It is really shocking that a beautiful paradise on earth has become a hell on earth under the pen of these authors.
People have put forward various theories and hypotheses to try to explain this mysterious phenomenon, which has become a science. For example, alien abduction, laser emission by western countries, black hole theory, infrasound vibration theory at sea, high pressure oil and gas theory, parallel universe, second gravity, four-dimensional space, space-time contraction theory and so on mentioned in the above article. The most popular view is that there is an alien base at the bottom of Bermuda Triangle. The missing planes and ships were taken away by aliens, and the missing people were taken by aliens for experiments. The sci-fi movie Close Encounter of the Third Kind shows the missing pilots being put back by aliens decades later. They are as young as before they disappeared. There is also a fascinating science fiction that these planes and spaceships have entered the "whirlpool of time" or the fourth dimension and gone to another world. Some people try to give reasonable explanations based on the existing scientific knowledge, such as tsunami, earthquake, tornado, gravity anomaly and magnetic anomaly (the US Navy measured this sea area during the census and mapping, and found no anomalies). There is a saying that the magnetic declination is abnormal, which seems reasonable and even accepted by some skeptics. As we all know, the magnetic pole and geographical pole of the earth are often inconsistent, which leads to a certain deviation between the north pole pointed by the compass and the actual north pole, and the magnetic declination is generally different from place to place. This magnetic declination phenomenon was discovered by China people as early as the Song Dynasty, which is a basic navigation knowledge.
Some people claim that the Bermuda Triangle is different, but the magnetic north pole and the north pole are on the same line, that is, the magnetic declination is zero. If sailors and pilots keep the habit of correcting the magnetic declination of Bermuda Triangle, they will lose their way. This statement can't stand scrutiny. Every sailor and pilot will always remember the phenomenon of magnetic declination. If they forget for a while, they will go off course elsewhere, but when the declination is zero, they will not. Even if the sailor or pilot loses his mind and suddenly corrects the compass where no correction is needed, it can only explain why the aircraft and ships deviate from the course, but not why they disappear. There are many places in geomagnetism where the declination is zero. Connecting these places becomes an imaginary "zero magnetic declination line", which starts from the Great Lakes of the United States, passes through the eastern United States, Florida and Cuba, and extends to South America. In fact, the Bermuda Triangle is not all on the zero magnetic declination line. The magnetic declination is close to zero only near Florida, and gradually increases eastward, reaching 15 degrees in Bermuda.
Advocates of mystery admit that there is no reasonable theory or hypothesis to explain the mysterious disappearance of Bermuda Triangle. The question is, if this mysterious disappearance didn't exist in the first place, why bother to explain it? But none of these "researchers" thought of investigating whether so many ships and planes really disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle. Larry Kusche, a librarian at Arizona State University in the United States, decided to do this for them and investigate more than 50 cases mentioned by supporters of the mysterious phenomenon one by one (because it is difficult to say whether some related accidents should be counted together or separately, there is no need to determine the numbers). The truth of the case, referring to the relevant investigation reports of the US Air Force, Navy, Coast Guard and Lloyd's Insurance Company in London, the newspaper reports at the time of the accident, and writing letters to relevant personnel for inquiry, published "The Mystery of Bermuda Triangle-1975 Solved", and introduced his investigation results of each case in detail. This book is published by the United States Coast Guard.
