The Mystery of the Sinking of the Titanic
April 12, 1912 was a tragic day - the day that the British luxury liner Titanic sank on its maiden voyage to North America. The sinking caused 1,523 people buried in the belly of the fish, is the largest disaster in the history of human navigation, shocked the world. Over the years, the real reason for the sinking of the Titanic has been the focus of exploration. Titanic
In 1985, the wreckage of the sunken Titanic was discovered in the waters off Newfoundland. Immediately afterward, explorers utilized a variety of advanced technologies and even dived into the cold, dark depths of the ocean in an attempt to reveal the cause of the Titanic's sinking. However, those who dove into the water could only see the Titanic's appearance, but could not explore the "wounds" caused by the impact of the icebergs, because the ship's cracks have been buried by a thick layer of sediment. This situation did not change until 1996. In August of that year, an international expedition composed of diving experts, shipbuilding experts and oceanographers from several countries went into the field to explore the area. It was astonishing not to explore. A brand new statement broke the widely accepted plot of the famous movie Titanic. In this movie, the nearly 275-meter luxury passenger ship, after being hit by an oncoming iceberg drifting about 92 meters long crack, the ship's cabin into the water, and soon sank in the waters off Newfoundland. However, the results of this probe showed that the Titanic was not sunk by a large crack made by a large iceberg drifting head-on. Their sonic probe found the ship's "wound". The "wound" was not 92 meters long, but had six small "wounds" with a total damage area of only 3.7-4 meters. Researchers in order to enhance the credibility of this claim, the use of those data in the computer simulation of the process of the disaster, the conclusion is certain: at that time into the water into the six compartments is not an average of water, some of the water intake is large, and some of the water intake is small, which indicates that the hole opened up by the impact of the hole has a large and small. In fact, at that time the ship's designer, Edward Wilding, had already raised this situation, but this very important testimony was intentionally or unintentionally ignored. Because it was hard for people at the time to accept the fact that a ship of such magnificence sank after hitting only six small holes!
It all sounds so plausible, but like all untruths, the Titanic mystery is far from over, and in 2004 a sensational statement jumped to the attention of the world's public, grabbing the attention of all those who cared, and those who didn't, about what happened to the Titanic: in an interview with British television, Robin Gardiner and Andrew Newton of the United Kingdom , revealed the Titanic sinking conspiracy theory - that the 1,523 passengers and crew killed in the sinking of the Titanic did not die as a result of a natural disaster, but as a result of a man-made disaster! They claim that six months before the Titanic began its maiden voyage, on September 11, 1911, the Titanic's sister ship, the Olympic, barely made it back and docked in Belfast Harbor after the ship's side was badly mangled as it was leaving Southampton for a sea trial. Unfortunately, the insurance company refused to pay for the collision on the grounds that it was the Olympic that was responsible for the collision, and the repairs to the Olympic were exceptionally expensive, leaving the then White Star Steamship Company in serious financial difficulties. Worse still, if the Titanic failed to set sail on time six months later, the White Star Line would face bankruptcy. So White Star decided to disguise the damaged Olympic as the Titanic and arranged the shipwreck to defraud a large sum of insurance money. Originally the White Star Line had arranged for a California to be docked in an iceberg-infested area of the Atlantic Ocean, ready to rescue everyone aboard the Titanic in time for the accident. The most critical aspect of the disaster that led to it becoming a reality was that the California had mistaken the Titanic's position and distress signal, and failed to arrive at the sinking site in time to rescue her. Gardiner, Newton and other conspiracy theorists believe that JP Morgan, the American super-rich owner of the White Star Line, was behind the insurance fraud plot. Titanic
The words are as strong as the stone. But many Britons scoff at conspiracy theories, including experts from the Titanic Society of Britain. "I have no doubt that the ship lying on the bottom of the North Atlantic is the Titanic," said Steve Rigby, a spokesman for the British Titanic Society, in an interview. However, the "ship insurance fraud conspiracy" theorists point to a number of anomalies to substantiate their claims. First, Titanic had suddenly changed course, possibly to rendezvous with the Californian; second, after encountering the iceberg, First Officer Murdoch was seen running up to the high bridge, possibly to look for signs of the Californian; third, later investigations revealed that there was not a single pair of binoculars in the crew's cabin, which meant that it was very difficult for the overseers to spot the iceberg in time; and fourth, the president of the White Star Line, Mr. J.J. Murdoch, had been arrested on the grounds that the iceberg was not in his cabin. White Star Line's president JP Morgan had also planned to take the Titanic, but two days before sailing, he canceled the trip on the grounds of ill health, but two days after the ship sank, some people found that he was having a rendezvous with his French mistress, with him canceling the trip with 55 people, these canceled trips should be aware of the insiders; Fifth, in the process of temporarily disguising the Olympic as the Titanic There were corners cut, and some of the lifeboats on the wreck were found to be leaking like sieves; sixth, and most mind-boggling, of the more than 3,600 items recovered from the wreck of the Titanic, not a single one of them bore the Titanic's markings; and seventh, the fact that the California, which appeared in the Atlantic Ocean at that time, except for the crew and 3,000 woolen sweaters and blankets, did not The fact that it carried a single passenger is baffling
The Mystery of the Loch Ness Monster
The Loch Ness Monster, one of the most mysterious and intriguing enigmas on earth. Loch Ness Monster
Loch Ness is located in the Great Glen in the northern part of the Scottish Highlands in the United Kingdom, the lake is 39 kilometers long and 2.4 kilometers wide. The area is not large, but deep. The average depth reaches 200 meters, and the deepest is 293 meters. The lake remains frozen all year round, with steep banks and dense woods. The northern end of the lake is connected to the North Sea by a river. The earliest record of the water monster can be traced back to 565 A.D., the Irish missionary St. Columba and his servant swimming in the lake, the water monster suddenly attacked the servant, thanks to the clergyman in time to save, the servant swam back to the shore, save his life, and since then, more than a dozen centuries, about the emergence of water monsters up to 10,000 news. But at that time, people did not miss this, that is just an ancient legend or nonsense. Until April 1934, the London doctor Wilson passing through Loch Ness, just found the water monster swimming in the lake. Wilson hastened to use the camera to take a picture of the water monster, although the photo is not very clear, but still clearly show the characteristics of the water monster: long neck and flat small head, looks nothing like any kind of aquatic animals, but very much like early more than 70 million years ago the extinction of the huge reptile serpent-necked dragons. Ophiuchus, a giant aquatic reptile that lived from more than 100 million years ago to more than 70 million years ago, is a distant relative of the dinosaurs. It had an elongated neck, oval body and long tail with sharp teeth in its mouth, and fed on fish, making it a dominant king of the sea in the Mesozoic era. If the Loch Ness Monster is really a serpent-necked dragon, it is undoubtedly an extremely valuable surviving prehistoric animal, and the discovery will also occupy an important position in zoology. The Loch Ness Monster
So after the publication of this photo, soon caused a worldwide sensation, along with the twentieth century "dinosaur fever", people began to the water monster and the serpent-necked dragon may still be alive associated with the great attention to this. 1960 April 23, British aeronautical engineers Dinstedt in Loch Ness shot more than 50 feet of film, the film, although the film is not the same, but it is the same. On April 23, 1960, the British aeronautical engineer Dinstedt shot a fifty-foot film at Loch Ness. Although the film was rough, a long-necked black giant creature could be seen swimming across Loch Ness when it was screened. Some scientists who were in denial changed their minds after seeing the film. The Royal Air Force's Joint Air Reconnaissance Intelligence Center analyzed Tinsdale's film and concluded that "the thing is probably biological."
Mystery of JFK's death
Since the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, U.S. presidents have been assassinated, and the aura of power around their heads has almost become a target in the eyes of some "maniacs". However, the background to the JFK shooting is particularly puzzling. The American public is puzzled: the murderer Lee Harvey Oswald in the eyes of the federal agents, in front of the photographer was a shot "silence", and shot to kill Jack Ruby shortly after the mysterious death. Kennedy
Around this case, American public opinion put forward a variety of assumptions. Some people believe that this is a U.S. CIA and the military in the "hawks" *** with the planning of the coup plot; others believe that the assassination is the "mafia". What's more, there are also people will Kennedy's death and Marilyn Monroe's suicide together. In order to find out the truth of the case, the U.S. government set up a special commission of inquiry, responsible for investigating the circumstances of the case. However, after several years of investigation, the commission finally concluded that the shooting of JFK was a personal act of Oswald, without any deeper political background. When the conclusion was announced, there was a public outcry. Some civil society organizations vowed to get to the bottom of the case, but to this day the case is still "public and private". As time passes, many of the people involved have died, and the rest are approaching their twilight years, and it looks like they'll be taking the mystery to their graves.
Mystery of the Terracotta Warriors
March 1, 1994, the world-famous "Eighth Wonder of the World" - the Terracotta Warriors of Qin Shi Huang Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit No. 2 formally began excavation. This is one of the great archaeological discoveries of this century. In the second terracotta warrior pit has been unearthed copper spear, copper crossbow, copper arrowheads, remnants of the sword, etc., which also found a batch of bronze sword, the length of 86 centimeters, the sword body **** there are eight prongs. Archaeologists measured with vernier calipers, found that the error of these eight prisms is less than a hair's breadth, has unearthed 19 bronze swords, swords so. This batch of bronze sword internal organization is dense, the body of the sword is bright and smooth, the edge of the grinding pattern is delicate, the texture comes and goes without staggering, they sleep under the loess for more than 2,000 years, when unearthed, then bright as new, sharp and incomparable. After testing, researchers found that the surface of the sword has a layer of chromium salt compound 10 microns thick. This discovery immediately stirred the world, because this chromium salt oxidation treatment method, only in recent times the emergence of advanced technology, Germany in 1937, the United States in 1950 has invented and applied for a patent. In the cleaning of the first pit of the first over the hole, archaeologists found a bronze sword by a respect for up to 150 kg of ceramic figurines bent, the degree of its bending more than 45 degrees, when people move away from the terracotta figurines, amazing miracle: that narrow and thin bronze sword, but in a flash rebound straight, natural recovery. Contemporary metallurgists dream of "morphologic memory alloys", but appeared in ancient tombs more than 2,000 years ago.
UFO mystery
1. The famous Roswell incident in the United States is still a classic case of UFOs! UFO
2. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) is a secret intelligence agency within the U.S. Pentagon, which is responsible for coordinating intelligence activities across the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force. The Defense Intelligence Agency works not only for the Pentagon, but also for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). In the late 1970s, Citizens Against the UFO Cover-Up, a UFO research organization in the U.S., sent a letter to the DIA in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). "Freedom of Information Act. They wished to obtain from the Defense Intelligence Agency the files it had on the UFO incident. Initially, like other United States government agencies, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) denied any connection with UFO research. Eventually, however, it was forced to release three high-profile UFO files. The contents of those 3 secret files, which were first made public by the Defense Intelligence Service, were the blueprint for the quintessential Stefan Spielberg movie in the U.S. One of the 3 files dealt with the debriefing of the Iranian Air Force's UFO sighting on September 19, 1976 1) On September 19, 1976, at about 12:30 p.m., the General Command of the Iranian National Air Force received four phone calls from residents of the Mishran area near the capital, Tehran. Those residents said in their calls that they had spotted very strange flying objects in the local sky. Some said the UFOs were shaped like birds. Others described them as helicopters with bright flashing lights. He (referring to the person who drafted the report on the National Iranian Air Base) explained to those residents that the so-called strange flying objects could be stars. After speaking on the phone with the Air Force airfield in Mehrabad, he then decided that he would immediately go and see those things for himself. 2) At about 1:30 a.m. on the 19th of this month, the F?interceptor was in the air about 40 nautical miles north of Tehran. Because of the intense light flashing from this UFO, it could be seen clearly from 70 nautical miles away. As the aircraft approached the UFO at a distance of 20 nautical miles, the radio system and surveillance equipment on board the aircraft suddenly failed. At this point, the pilot had to return to the Saroch base. As soon as the pilot had turned the aircraft's nose over, not only did the monitoring equipment and signaling system in the aircraft's cabin instantly regain their functions, but the danger of a sudden engine shutdown had disappeared. 1:40 p.m., the second fighter jet took to the air. At 1:40 a.m., the second fighter plane lifted off, and when it was 27 nautical miles north of Tehran and at an altitude of 150 nautical miles, the UFO began to appear on the plane's radar screen. 3) The size of the UFO was approximately the same as the size of a Boeing 707 (refueling plane). The light from this UFO was so intense that it was difficult to make an accurate judgment of its size. The UFO emitted intense columns of blue, green, red, and orange light that varied in sequence as it flew vertically toward the ground. Since the wave frequencies of these light columns appeared to be very high, they could all be observed at the same moment. When the two F-type interceptors tracked the UFO into the air south of Tehran, another brightly lit object suddenly emerged from its body. This newly emerged flying body was about half or even one-third the size of the full moon in the sky. The small UFO that had just separated from its parent body then rushed toward the two F?interceptors at a very high speed. One of the pilots attempted to fire a 9-type airborne interceptor rocket at it, but the control system for launching rockets in the cabin failed and the radio was dead. Just then, the pilot quickly leaned back and pulled the airplane into a high arc to try to shake off the UFO. He followed up with another dive. However, the original UFO followed, maintaining a distance of three to four nautical miles for some time. While the pilot was trying to break away from the trail, the second, smaller UFO, which had separated from the parent UFO, stayed within the arc that the airplane had made in the air. After a while, the small UFO headed toward the mother UFO and merged into one. (4) Not long after the small UFO merged with the parent body, another UFO suddenly flew from the other side of the original parent UFO and flew vertically down toward the ground. 5) At first light the next day, a helicopter picked up the two interceptor pilots and took them to the site where the smaller UFO had most likely landed the night before. There, they found nothing else associated with it, except for a stretch of dry riverbed that was suspected to be a possible landing site for that UFO. When the party came to the western edge of the strip, they stumbled upon very valuable information. There was a family living there. The people of this house said that they had heard a great noise outside at midnight yesterday, and that this noise was accompanied by a lightning-like glare from the outside of the house. As a result, tests were started on the area and the two airplanes to see if they had any nuclear radiation. We (in this case the Defense Intelligence Service) will present the results promptly if they come out later. This file at the beginning of its list of U.S. government and military agencies, it is not difficult to make people see, happened in Iran this UFO incident, had caused the highest leadership of the U.S. government's great concern.
The mystery of ghosts
In May 2004, a group of urban adventure enthusiasts infiltrated a disused naval dockyard in South Plymouth, England, where an ancient lampshade in the cabin, a dirty mattress, a tilted television set, and even a few pieces of collapsed wooden beams were all the fruits of their exploration. Suddenly someone found a windfall:He heard a woman's sobs coming from deep inside the cabin ......
Mystery of the Korean airliner crash
A Korean Airlines Boeing 747 flying from Seoul to Guam crashed in the early morning hours of August 6, 1997, local time, near Guam International Airport, killing more than 200 people. More than 200 people were killed. World Unsolved Mysteries
There was heavy rainfall and bad weather, and the plane suddenly disappeared from the radar screen and lost contact with the ground command tower as it flew about 5 kilometers from Guam International Airport. According to witnesses, the plane crashed into a dense forest near the airport with a ball of fire and explosions were heard. After 17 hours of intense work, U.S. rescuers recovered the bodies of about 70 victims from the wreckage of the Korean airliner that crashed in Guam and from the crash site; Korean Air said 29 of the 254 people on board survived, four of whom were crew members. The United States National Transportation Safety Board sent a specialized investigation team to the scene to investigate the cause of the accident. The two "black boxes" on the crashed plane have also been found and sent to Washington for analysis. The South Korean and U.S. officials in charge of the Korean Air Lines plane crash have differing opinions on the cause of the crash. The South Korean side emphasized that the navigation device at Guam airport was in a malfunctioning state, and the staff on duty at the airport's command tower was not an employee of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), in addition to the unusual weather conditions at the time, which ultimately led to the plane crash. The U.S. side argued that the malfunctioning of the navigation device should not have affected the normal landing of the aircraft, and questioned why the Korean side replaced the Airbus flights on the route with the Boeing 747 chartered flights that had been flying for 13 years. The Boeing Airplane Manufacturing Company said that its products have an accident rate of only one point seven eight in a million. On Aug. 10, U.S. federal investigators said the investigation found that the computer software for the radar system at Guam International Airport was malfunctioning when the large South Korean airliner crashed, failing to issue a timely alert when the plane approached the ground. Under normal circumstances, when the aircraft flight close to the ground, the airport radar system will issue an alert, ground commanders will remind the pilot in time. However, the investigation found that due to the software problem, the radar did not detect the South Korean plane approaching the ground, so the pilot did not receive a warning from the ground command tower before the plane crashed. Responsible for investigating the crash of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board officials believe that this radar system problems can not be said to cause the cause of the plane crash, can only say that the lack of one aspect of preventive measures. There are many factors that could have contributed to the crash. In addition, the Guam airport to guide the aircraft landing navigation system in the aircraft accident a long time before the aircraft has been out of service; when the aircraft approached the Guam airport when Guam is heavy rainfall, these are investigators to study the aircraft accident may be a factor.
Mystery of spontaneous human combustion
The so-called spontaneous human combustion phenomenon refers to the fact that a person's body catches fire on its own without coming into contact with an outside fire. This incredible phenomenon was first reported in the seventeenth century medical reports. By the 20th century, *** there were more than 200 incidents.
Despite the fact that many police, fire departments, arson experts, and pathologists have presented a lot of evidence, there has not yet been a sound physiological argument to prove how the human body can spontaneously combust or even turn into ashes. Conventionally speaking, the organs, tissues and bones of the human body can only be burned to ashes in a high-pressure crematorium at 900-1,000 degrees Celsius, and spontaneous combustion is indeed unbelievable. In addition, some people have proposed other spontaneous combustion factors, such as meteors, lightning, atomic explosions in the body, laser beams, geomagnetic energy, etc., but under what conditions these can play a role in the formation of spontaneous combustion, there is no explanation. In short, the phenomenon of spontaneous combustion of the human body is still a difficult mystery.
