Hamilton: There are very few places in the world which are beyond human understanding. One such mysterious area is the Bermuda Triangle, which is located in the North Atlantic Ocean. Planes passing over this area disappear, ships are swallowed by water. There is so little information about this mysterious place that logic is defied by adding various folk tales to it. Many experiments from all over the world have been done here and every time something is revealed which even the scientists are surprised to see. Recently, once again something has been found in this ‘Devil’s Triangle’, which has never been seen before anywhere on earth.
Such a giant rock seen for the first time on earth
Bermuda Mystery may be solved
This discovery revealed that there is usually a ‘mantle’ beneath the oceanic crust, but in Bermuda, beneath the crust and within the tectonic plate, there is another layer that is 20 km thick, which is not seen anywhere else in the world. It is possible that the root of the mysterious incidents in this area may lie hidden in this.
Prominent author William Fraser has reacted to this discovery. According to them, this huge new structure shows that the last explosion may have forced mantle rock into the crust, where it solidified and formed ‘raft’-like structures that are holding the ocean floor up.
Why are scientists surprised?
Bermuda is located on an ‘oceanic ridge’, where the oceanic crust is approximately 500 meters higher than the surrounding area but the area has not seen any volcanic activity for 31 million years.
Fraser and co-author Jeffrey Park used recordings of large earthquakes from a seismic station in Bermuda. They examined places where seismic waves suddenly changed, exposing a layer that was unusually thick and less dense than the surrounding rock.
According to research by Smith College geologist Sarah Maza, the lava coming out of Bermuda has low silica content, which may be a reason behind the high-carbon rock structure. Mazza believes this carbon comes from deep within the mantle, which was probably pushed down during the formation of the supercontinent Pangea, 900 to 300 million years ago.
