If an unusual incident happened to you, you saw a strange creature or an incomprehensible phenomenon, you had an unusual dream, you saw a UFO in the sky or became a victim of alien abduction, you can send us your story and it will be published on our website ===> .
Researcher Darrell Miklos, who hosts the show "Cooper's Treasures" on the Discovery Channel, was found at the bottom of the ocean in the so-called unusual object. Writes about this Daily Mail.
Miklos is looking for the remains of ancient sunken ships in the Caribbean Sea. using secret marked maps created by NASA astronaut Gordon Cooper.
The entire cycle of Miklos’s programs is devoted to discoveries and findings from Cooper’s maps, and they are becoming more and more popular.
Last year, Miklos and his team found an anchor from one of Christopher Columbus' ships.
But recently Miklos found a strange object, which he said could be an ancient sunken alien ship.
When astronaut Gordon Cooper became a Mercury-Atlas 9 rocket pilot in 1963, the US government asked him to map any marine anomalies off the US coast that he could see from space. The United States was very afraid of Soviet submarines, which could “steal nuclear secrets.”
In just over 24 hours, Cooper circled the Earth 22 times and actually saw something interesting. He put about a hundred marks on the maps. It is also interesting that the late Cooper always believed in the existence of aliens and this anomaly in the Caribbean Sea was indicated on his map as an “unidentified object.”
Mystical Bermuda Triangle
The place where Miklos found the huge object is somewhere near the Bahamas and in the area of the mystical Bermuda Triangle. But Miklos does not disclose its exact coordinates. However, he is confident that this find will be the first evidence of aliens visiting Earth hundreds or even thousands of years ago.
Team Darrell Miklos
According to Miklos, at first he thought he had found a large ship associated with Francis Drake. But in reality he encountered an inexplicably huge structure, 15,300 feet (more than 4 kilometers) long.
The structure lies at a depth of about 100 meters and is covered with some very long and thick protruding pins that are overgrown with corals.
According to Miklos, he is sure that this is not a natural object, but something artificial, and very ancient, at least 5 thousand years old (the age of the corals that covered the structure).
Near the huge structure, Miklos and her partner in the submersible found some other mysterious objects, which were also densely overgrown with coral. It is also reported that the presence of corals in this place is in itself an anomaly, since the local conditions are not at all suitable for corals.
Now Miklos really wants to carefully study this object, despite the fact that he realizes that he might be considered crazy if he insists that he has found an alien ship.
"I want to explore it. I want to see what it is, because it could be something natural, nature is quite capable of such surprises. But given its location in this particular part of the Caribbean and given what Gordon was saying me about visitors to Earth from another planet, and the things that I saw at the bottom with my own eyes - I think this is definitely worth exploring very well."
The bottom topography in this area of the ocean is well known. It is even known what is located here under the bottom at a depth of several kilometers. Numerous drilling and geophysical surveys have been conducted offshore Florida, the Bahamas and Bermuda. Currents, water temperature, salinity and the movement of air masses over the ocean are phenomena and processes about which thousands of pages have already been written. And in this regard, the Bermuda Triangle is one of the most explored parts of the World Ocean.
Indeed, many expeditions were sent to the Bermuda Triangle area, but not, however, as lovers of the mysterious are trying to convince us, to lift the veil over its secrets, but to study the Gulf Stream, the influence of ocean waters on weather conditions, to study the seabed and its mineral wealth, as well as the geological structure of the earth's crust deep below the ocean floor. Proponents of the Mysterious Triangle are right about one thing: this is a very complex area of the ocean. It is home to huge shallows and deep-sea trenches, a complex system of sea currents and intricate atmospheric circulation. And we will be convinced of this later. Let's start with a description of the seabed, then move on to the sea surface and end with the atmosphere.
In the Bermuda Triangle we find the following forms of seabed relief: shelf with shallow banks, continental slope, marginal and median plateaus, deep straits, abyssal plains, deep-sea trenches. Rare diversity for such a relatively small area of the World Ocean! We can, with a certain degree of approximation, indicate what part of the bottom is occupied by individual landforms:
abyssal plains35% shelf with shallow banks25% continental slope and foot18% marginal and median plateaus 15% deep-sea trenches 5% deep straits2% seamounts 0.3%
The proportion of each of these forms was determined by planimetry of a large-scale morphological map of the seafloor. Just look at the morphological map to see that the Bermuda triangle can be divided into two parts:
southern with the Florida shelf, the Bahamas banks, straits and the deep-sea trench of Puerto Rico. In this part, the topography of the seabed looks very rugged: extensive shallows alternate with straits and deep ocean depths; northern with a more uniform bottom topography. The wide shelf gives way to a spacious deep-sea plain, in the north and east of which there are seamounts and a fairly large Bermuda Plateau.
In the Bermuda Triangle, both in the eastern and northern parts, there are several seamounts. Some of them have names, others are nameless. Seamounts are cones of more or less regular shape. They rise above the bottom plane by at least 150-200 m and higher. The lower cones are called submarine mounds. In plan they have a round or elliptical shape, their diameter ranges from several kilometers to several tens of kilometers. The slopes of seamounts are steeper than the slopes of mountains on land, their slope is most often 10-30°. Forty-degree slopes are no exception.
Seamounts have regular, uniform slopes, sometimes complicated by several terraced steps. In the first case, the mountains look like simple cones, in the second they look like huge plinths, from which several smaller cones rise. The base of the large seamounts very smoothly transitions into the ocean floor. Some seamounts hide their peaks deep underwater, while others protrude above the surface in the form of islands. However, in this case, the definition of “seamount” is completely appropriate, because what rises above the ocean level represents only a small part of what is hidden under water. The islands, which give the entire Bermuda Triangle its name, are the tops of seamounts rising from the surface of the Bermuda Plateau. The material of seamounts, basalt, is hidden from our view because the mountains are covered with thick coral reefs. Some seamounts rise alone on the ocean floor, while others form groups. It should also be noted that in the Atlantic Ocean there are significantly fewer of them than in the Pacific, where their number is about 2000 (in the Atlantic Ocean there are only a few dozen of them). In the Bermuda Triangle itself, within its classical boundaries, there are no more than 5 seamounts.
Seamounts are certainly a very interesting phenomenon, but in our time they are no longer mysterious at all. They were formed in the same way as basalt mountains on land - as a result of volcanic activity. In places where a hot spot or some kind of crack appeared on the seabed, basalt began to pour out. Underwater, it quickly cooled, and the lava flows grew one on top of the other until mountains several kilometers high were formed.
On the seabed of the Bermuda Triangle there is also a deep-sea trench - the deepest part of the ocean floor. Based on the island with which it neighbors, it is called the Puerto Rico Trench (on the morphological map it looks like an oval black spot in the lower right corner of the triangle). The Puerto Rico Trench has the greatest depths in the entire Atlantic Ocean.
Its depth is 8742 m. This is at the same time the maximum depth of the Atlantic Ocean. Underwater, or deep-sea, trenches are long elongated depressions with an asymmetrical shape in diameter. The slope located closer to the island (in this case, Puerto Rico) is steeper, approximately 8-10°, the slope facing the ocean is flatter, its steepness is 3-5°. The Puerto Rico Trench is medium in size.
Its length is 1550 km (for comparison, the length of the longest trench on the globe, the Peruvian-Chilean trench, is 5900 km, and the deepest, the Mariana Trench, is 2550 km). But the Puerto Rico trench is very wide - up to 120 km, and according to this indicator it is one of the “leaders”. Mariansky, for example, is twice as narrow. The total area of the bottom of the Puerto Rico trench is 186 thousand km2.
The deepest parts of the oceans are always, in the imagination of science fiction writers, a refuge of mysterious forces and unknown creatures. The Puerto Rican trough seems to be made for such fictions. However, there is nothing mysterious or supernatural at its bottom, only silts, volcanic ash, in places layers of fine-grained sand, and in and above the sediments there are special deep-sea organisms, such as sponges, sea cucumbers, and worms.
Well, in the water column there are deep-sea fish. It should also be added that the Pacific Ocean holds the lead not only in the number of seamounts, but also in the number of deep-sea trenches. There are at least 20 of them, while in the Atlantic Ocean there are only 4.
Under the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle there are mainly sedimentary rocks - limestones, sandstones, clays. The thickness of their layer ranges from 1-2 km (Bermuda Plateau) to 5-6 km (Bahama banks and their surroundings). The average rate of sedimentation is approximately 6 mm per 150 years, i.e. we can say with confidence that over the past 120-130 million years, little has changed in the nature of the bottom of the triangle.
So, what can we say in conclusion? And the fact is that the area of the Bermuda Triangle is very interesting from the point of view of geology and geography. Here, in a small area, many forms of relief of the seabed are concentrated, which is not found in almost any other place. Here are other striking features characteristic of the Bermuda Triangle:
1. The northernmost coral reefs in the world are found here
2. The limestone platform that forms the basis of the bottom of the triangle is a unique geological formation. An almost six-kilometer layer of limestone was deposited here, and for 100 million years the same natural conditions remained virtually unchanged as at present.
3. The Puerto Rico Trench is the deepest in the Atlantic Ocean, and is located in close proximity to the Bahamas Banks, where the depth is on average only a few meters.
The sensational message, distributed by the Prensa Latina news agency, “blew up” the Internet. Allegedly, the remains of a city were discovered at the bottom of the sea in the Bermuda Triangle. Apparently, very ancient. The underwater objects were seen and filmed by researchers from Canada-based Advanced Digital Communication - Paul Weinzweig and his Russian-born wife Polina Zelitskaya.
The company of Paul and Polina, among three other companies, is surveying the seabed off the coast of Cuba under a contract with the Cuban government. They are looking for sunken Spanish treasure ships. They use sonars to record the bottom topography and robots for underwater photography. According to the couple, as reported by the agency, the city they discovered is located at a depth of about 700 meters. Allegedly, four pyramids, streets, squares, a monument resembling the Sphinx, walls with some inscriptions are visible. One pyramid even seems to be made of glass.
The couple believe that the structures at the bottom are man-made and may well be part of the sunken Atlantis.
We don’t believe that nature is capable of producing structures with symmetrical architecture,” Polina comments on her discovery.
There are, however, strange discrepancies in the information materials. According to Prensa Latinato, the pyramids were discovered just the other day north of the east coast of Cuba. The BBC reports that underwater objects are located west of Liberty Island. And they were first discovered last year. The Daily News, which enthusiasts found, also pointed to the west. But the find itself was reported back in 2002, as if it had been made last year. That is, in 2001 - again during work under a contract with the Cuban government.
Where is the truth? Not known. It’s not even clear whether the location of the pyramids (if they exist, of course) is part of the Bermuda Triangle? Or are references to it simply drawn in due to the fact that this mystical and mysterious area of the world's oceans is really not so far from Cuba?
However, the spouses Paul and Polina do not seem to hide the coordinates of the “city” they discovered. Over time, researchers will check what is really there. Isn't this whole story made up?
By the way, the fact that there is something strange at the bottom in the Bermuda Triangle zone was first stated by the famous oceanographer Verlag Meyer back in 1991. He claimed that during an examination of the bottom of the “triangle” in its very center at a depth of 600 meters, sonars showed the presence of two giant pyramids, larger in size than the Egyptian pyramid of Cheops.
Meyer, however, believed that they were built relatively recently - about half a century ago - and were made using an unknown technology from a material similar to very thick glass. The scientist reported that he intended to undertake an underwater expedition to the pyramids. The results of these studies are still unknown.
Who knows, maybe it’s Dr. Meyer’s pyramids that have now been discovered? Or was his statement used as a hoax?
BY THE WAY
And in Japan there are pyramids hidden under water
Scuba divers stumbled upon huge stone blocks while diving off the coast of a small Japanese island located in the northwest of Okinawa. Local residents knew about them, but considered them natural formations - just blocks.
However, it turned out that the blocks were hewn and neatly laid into the so-called ziggurat - a step pyramid. There are five steps. The base of the pyramid is 180 by 180 meters, height is 30 meters. There are smaller zigurattas around, with a road between them. The whole complex resembles an Egyptian one, but with South American stepped features.
Professor Mazaki Kimera, a geologist at the University of the Ryukyu in Okinawa, the first scientist to study the underwater complex, has no doubt that the mysterious five-stage structure was created artificially.
Robert Schock, a geology professor at Boston University who has dived himself, agrees: "I have not encountered natural processes that create objects as precise as this one." Japanese pyramids puzzle scientists more than Egyptian ones. Indeed, according to their estimates, the structures appeared more than 10 thousand years ago, when the bottom in the area of the island was still dry. That is, at the end of the last ice age. When the Egyptians were still primitive people. But who built it then?
Mysterious ships are not the only mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. In 1991, oceanographer Dr. W. Meyer, using sonars, discovered strange pyramid-like structures at a depth of approximately 2,000 feet. These structures were simply gigantic in size. They were 3 times higher in height than the Cheops Pyramid, which is the largest pyramid on land. The scientist conducted research, as a result of which he was able to establish that underwater pyramids made of a very smooth material, perhaps thick glass. In addition, Meyer believes that the age of the pyramids is approximately half a century, therefore, they could not have been built by past civilizations.
These mysterious pyramids are located in the very center of the Bermuda Triangle. According to the scientist, if you reveal the secrets associated with the strange pyramids, you will be able to get closer to solving the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle itself.
The news created a real sensation. Meyer held a press conference in the Bahamas, where he introduced journalists to the exact coordinates of the pyramids, graphs of their images, photographs and echograms, as well as a report on their research. Thanks to sonars and computerized analyzers located on the ship, it was possible to obtain images of the pyramids, according to which they are perfectly smooth, there are no algae or the presence of other forms of ocean flora or fauna on their surface. There were no seams, cracks or joints in the material from which the mysterious pyramids were created; it was as if they were created from a single monolithic piece. Meyer pointed out that the technology used to build the underwater pyramids is unknown to modern science. According to the scientist, underwater study of the pyramids is necessary to obtain more accurate data.
However, after the Bahamas press conference, reports about mysterious underwater structures practically stopped appearing in the media. It’s as if someone is deliberately hiding information from the general public. This is most likely due to the fact that they often fly out of the water or quickly sink to the ocean floor. It is known that such flights are observed frequently, and intelligence agencies track them. Scientific experts and US intelligence officials believe that the underwater complex produces a colossal amount of energy, which is responsible for the anomalies in the Bermuda Triangle area. It is quite possible that glass pyramids are only part of a huge energy complex.
Despite Meyer's evidence of the existence of a pyramid on the ocean floor, it is difficult to find. For the second decade, Meyer's supporters have been trying to find a mysterious pyramid in the Atlantic Ocean. Thanks to serious calculations, it was possible to establish that the pyramid may be located near Puerto Rico. Researchers studying this issue believe that there is some mysterious connection between all the pyramids existing on Earth. Such pyramids are found not only in Egypt or Mexico; similar structures have been discovered in many places on our planet: Brazil, China, Russia, Japan, Australia, Ukraine. And these are not all the countries in which pyramids are found.
Most pyramids are on land. But there are also those that were discovered under water. In addition to the pyramids in the Bermuda Triangle, a step pyramid approximately 20 m high was recently found in China. It consists of stone slabs and is located at the bottom of a lake in the Chinese province of Yunnan. This is the largest and best preserved pyramid, but besides it, nine more structures of the same size and about two dozen more objects scattered throughout the bottom were discovered at the bottom of the lake. According to scientists, these structures were built by an ancient civilization and represent a sunken city. Pyramids at the bottom of a lake in China do not cause much controversy or questions, but pyramids in the bermuda triangle still remain shrouded in mystery.
It should be noted that W. Meyer was not the first to point out the existence of underwater pyramids in the Atlantic. Russian scientist S. Proskuryakov in 1977 mentioned in one of his works that the echo sounders of a fishing vessel sailing near the Bermuda Islands recorded a strange hill resembling a pyramid. This mention was the reason for the organization of an expedition to the Bermuda region by the famous American ufologist and atlantologist Charles Berlitz. According to members of the expedition, they actually managed to discover a strange mountain located at a depth of 400 m, which strongly resembled a pyramid. The height of the pyramid was approximately 150 m, the sides were of equal length
At the moment, many researchers are trying to unravel this phenomenon. People are interested in who, when and why built these strange pyramids. I would like to hope that the answer to these questions will shed light on the mysterious disappearances of ships in the Bermuda Triangle area and explain the reasons for the anomalies occurring there.
