There are many scientific approach and theories about the Bermuda Triangle. I assume you already know about the highly famous and mysterious Bermuda Triangle too.Intriguing our people since decades and more, this place is an epitome of mystery which is worth a discussion here.

The Bermuda Triangle is a triangular shaped area located in the North Atlantic Ocean. The area is noteworthy because of the number of unexplained disappearances that have occurred there. (For those who never heard about it) – Ships and aircrafts have gone off the radar after sailing or flying into this zone, never to be heard from again. The mystery deepens when remnants of these vessels are never found.

In an attempt to explain the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle, theories abound. Such theories include everything from aliens to government cover-ups yet none have been proven 100% conclusive.

In recent years more attention has been focused on the reports of disappearances, crashes, and sinking’s. Through careful research, many of the reports have been proven to have been exaggerated and still others have been discounted completely. Comparatively, the destruction by an inside source, such as the entire crew of a ship has been reviewed and is represented one possible answer to the disappearances. Monetary gain would be the most likely motivating factor allowing the crew to split the bounty and then simply disappear.

In addition many believe that the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle are no more mysterious than any other location in the vast ocean. Catastrophes of this nature occur throughout the ocean, and when compared the triangle does not represent a more dangerous area than other locals.

Scientifically, the reasons behind the disappearances points to the idea of underground volcanoes that release a natural gas known as methane. These volcanoes or hydrates have the potential to erupt simultaneously and cause destruction to watercraft. The resulting debris would then be carried away from the area quickly, leaving no visible evidence. This theory however, does not explain aircraft that are lost in the area.

Weather has also been described as possibly playing a role in the legend and would account for destroying not only water vessels but also aircraft. Hurricanes are capable of producing the power needed to sink a ship as well as sheer wind velocity could bring down a small aircraft.

Lastly, a theory proposed by the United States Coast Guard concerns compass direction. In their report it was stated that there is a difference between magnetic north and truth north by nearly 20 degrees. This difference could account for ships being lost or located milks from their destination. This theory produced a lot of controversy and has since been discounted. The idea that seasoned ship Captains could become disoriented and then disappear due to a mere 20 degrees difference was found to be ridiculous.

These are only a few of the many theories that abound regarding the Bermuda Triangle. As technology continues to advance and scientists pursue new discoveries, no doubt more ideas as to the why of the Triangle will be revealed. It is our nature to try to explain the unexplained.
