Egyptian plane when it crashed 990 (October 1999) wrote an article entitled (triangle north) talked about offshore area, which fell out and how they share with the Bermuda Triangle in many aspects, mainly the high proportion of air and sea disasters where .. I said then that the high rate of disasters in this region is supposed to make some appearance of a new triangle stretching from New York City in the south to the coast in the north Nsvascotta ..
, Dr. Hugo Stephenson, for example one who wrote about this subject, says in this regard:
Saw the Bermuda Triangle since the nineties quieter nowhere else, in turn, began to the north triangle activity has not known before .. Whatever the secret, it seems that the phenomenon has moved gradually from south to north!!
However, I today make a precautionary about any allegations of this kind the fact that these areas (or triangles) is characterized by heavy congestion sea and thus natural to have a greater proportion of the disappearances or the mysterious drowning .. The Bermuda Triangle (although it is the most famous in the world), but it is not alone or unique of its kind where there are patches of similar freedom met the conditions of congestion sea with extreme natural conditions hauling a graveyard for ships and aircraft (perhaps the greatest triangle of the Dragon in the Sea of Japan)!
.. Anyway; not going to talk today about the disappearances in the triangle or the other, but about the possibility of the presence of (additional component) might explain some of the serious marine accidents (most recently, the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico) .. The Bermuda Triangle has been selected to study so-called "marine methane bubbles" that come out of accumulated sediment at the bottom of the sea and can be exploited as a source of great energy. After millions of years from the decomposition of the extinct creatures generated stores of natural gas rising from the bottom, such as air bubbles in a boiling pot. It is here suggested by some scientists to detect the origin of these bubbles in the Bermuda Triangle, believing it is the cause of the mysterious incidents that took place in that region.
Although the Bermuda Triangle is not the only one who has large quantities of methane deposits that; but the only known incidents of drowning in the past, the mysterious (which may likely) having the most active and large .. When the methane off towards the sea surface in a bubble and they are one of such magnitude and breadth of the degree of surprise which creates a vacuum in the form of an inverted dome and hollow .. The phenomenon in this way capable of swallowing a ship and dumped the thing which he believes happened to the ships that disappeared there ..
In this regard, says one of the scientists involved in the international project to study the points of bubbles:
"Our hypothesis says that natural gas out of the hydrocarbons accumulated in the bottom of the sea and consists mostly of methane .. The idea is that a collapse is at the bottom of the sea or temperature increased, the bubbles of methane expands, and as millions to the surface, causing the sinking of a ship" ...
*** *** ***
The question here is: Do the research will end this myth of Bermuda triangles and the rest of the world?
... Dilemma, in my opinion is not in the presence / or absence of a serious marine areas; but in the minds of fans who oppose the wacky any rational explanation reveals the ambiguity and attractiveness ...
And of course do not forget the drug smugglers and arms dealers and piracy and insurance companies to ship all those who have benefited from the bad reputation of these areas and are interested in keeping it alive in people's heads!!
