What’s the deal with the Bermuda Triangle?
I’ve heard all these weird stories about planes and boats going missing in the Bermuda Triangle. Has anybody actually traveled through it? What’s so mysterious about it?
The “Bermuda or Devil’s Triangle” is an imaginary area located off the southeastern Atlantic coast of the United States, which is noted for a high incidence of unexplained losses of ships, small boats, and aircraft. The apexes of the triangle are generally accepted to be Bermuda, Miami, Fla., and San Juan, Puerto Rico. However, The U. S. Board of Geographic Names does not recognize the Bermuda Triangle as an official name and does not maintain an official file on the area.
An area called the “Devil’s Sea” by Japanese and Filipino seamen, located off the east coast of Japan, also exhibits the same magnetic characteristics. It is also known for its mysterious disappearances.
Countless theories attempting to explain the many disappearances have been offered throughout the history of the area. The most practical seem to be environmental and those citing human error. The majority of disappearances can be attributed to the area’s unique environmental features.
It has been said that the “Devil’s Triangle” is one of the two places on earth that a magnetic compass does point towards true north. Normally it points toward magnetic north. The difference between the two is known as compass variation. The amount of variation changes by as much as 20 degrees as one circumnavigates the earth. If this is the case and a compass variation or error is not compensated for, a navigator could find himself far off course and in deep trouble.
Another environmental factor is the character of the Gulf Stream. It is extremely swift and turbulent and can quickly erase any evidence of a disaster. The unpredictable Caribbean-Atlantic weather pattern also plays its role. Sudden local thunder storms and water spouts often spell disaster for pilots and mariners. Finally, the topography of the ocean floor varies from extensive shoals around the islands to some of the deepest marine trenches in the world. With the interaction of the strong currents over the many reefs the topography is in a state of constant flux and development of new navigational hazards is swift. Not to be under estimated is the human error factor. A large number of pleasure boats travel the waters between Florida’s Gold Coast and the Bahamas. All too often, crossings are attempted with too small a boat, insufficient knowledge of the area’s hazards, and a lack of good seamanship.
There is another school of thought regarding the disappearance of people along with their craft, it is thought that they are “trapped in-between time dimensions,” of which there is “no way out.” These disappearances are accidental and not intentional. The victims were in the wrong place, at the wrong time.
The “Bermuda Triangle” is one of two portals, used by the “human-like” aliens, to travel from their planet to ours. The “Bermuda Triangle” is not actually a triangle. When it is “in-phase,” it is constantly in motion and in intensity (between one to one and a half mile wide). The disappearances occur when caught in the center or within the first two outward radiating rings.
The occurrence takes place 25 times a year and lasts for 28 minutes, for the “Bermuda Triangle.” The “Pacific Triangle,” takes place only 3 times a year. The “Bermuda and the Pacific Triangles” are linked to other triangles that exist throughout the universe. The “human-like” aliens technology enable them to use “time compression, solar power and the ability to reduce friction,” for travelling across vast distances. It takes them approximately 24 hours to travel from their planet to Earth.
These “time holes” can be described as an “accordion in motion.” When the “time hole” is compressed, the craft enters one end and when the “time hole” expands itself, the craft is at the opposite end exiting one “time hole” and entering another. The “human-like” aliens know exactly which “time hole” is compressed, at any given time.
I hope i helped some!
