Water is the most common substance on earth,occupying more than a third of the entire surface of our planet. The variety of shapes and sizes of this life-giving force is amazing. Water is omnipresent, it is present in all living organisms and fills the numerous hollows of the world.
Meanwhile, for the modern man the water elementremains one of the greatest mysteries in the world, because people have studied only 5% of the oceans. Innovative technologies and costly studies using bathyscaphes allowed to partially explore the unique world under a multi-kilometer layer of water, opening the curtain to the secrets of the deep sea.
Who would have thought that under the calm surfacewaters lurk ancient monsters and strange creatures about which legends were composed, which were considered just another invention of a science fiction writer and never left their refuge on the ocean floor? Scientists continue to build hypotheses about the existence of underwater civilization and alien objects that hide the depths of the sea. But some mysterious events that occurred in the depths of the sea, can not give an explanation even experienced professionals.
Sensational tragic event of the last centurybecame the death of "Titanic", the largest ship of its time, the world miracle of shipbuilding. The owners confidently believed that no one and nothing in the world could crush this giant, except the Lord, and therefore its unexpected, catastrophic fate shocked the entire world community. According to the official version, the giant ship collided with an iceberg, although at night the sea was calm and posed no threat. Due to significant damage to the hull, the liner went to the bottom of the ocean, forever inscribing its name in the list called "Secrets of the deep sea."
At the end of time, other ones were found.the reasons for the shipwreck of the mighty Titanic and its tragic descent into the depths of the sea. The mysteries of the disaster partly came to the surface thanks to research that reliably established that:
For more than a century (since 1912) the giantliner at the bottom of the ocean. The last two decades have had a devastating effect on a ship. The causes of irreparable damage entail the next secrets of the deep sea. The Titanic suffered from hunters who had plundered the ship and pulled off even the mast beacon, and from the destructive action of bacteria that had turned the best steel of that time into pathetic pieces of rusty metal.
The category "Secrets of the deep sea" and includemysterious disappearances of flying and swimming equipment in the most mystical place of the Atlantic Ocean - the Bermuda Triangle. What only versions have gone off the covers of periodicals of the last century! They also blamed guests from other planets, and fantastic monsters, and even the evaporation of a unique nature, which produces the depths of the sea, in the traceless disappearance of ships and airplanes. Mystery scientists got farther and farther away, thanks to which amazing stories appeared about black holes, jumping through temporary space and quite logical conclusions about the experiments of American special services. Nevertheless, none of the theories could not withstand criticism. All of them were doomed to be considered unproven.
Over three decades have been fixedthe disappearance of 37 aircraft and 38 vessels, as well as a nuclear submarine and aerostat. Up until 1975, mysterious cases continued, called the "Secrets of the Sea". The Bermuda Triangle, as scientists have calculated, has an area of 1 million km2 and is located between the islands of the same name, the southern cape of Florida and Puerto Rico. A characteristic feature of this place is considered a multi-tiered system of air and sea flows.
Not understandable and not relevantconclusions of common sense, the secrets of the depths of the sea are still not disclosed. All new and new information gives rise to new questions, many of which never find the answers.
The death of "Titanic" has become a kind of triggerthe mechanism that created the subject for incessant disputes and among the public and brilliant scientists. Was the iceberg the cause of the collapse of a giant vessel designed to stay afloat in any unexpected disaster? What ruined the giant liner, interrupting his first solemn conquest of the water element? All the fault of the evil rock and excessive confidence in the unsinkability of the vessel or behind the disaster is more trivial reason?
Even less clarity on the Bermuda casetriangle. The disappearance of dozens of units of equipment and people without the slightest clue and trace creates fertile ground for the most ambitious assumptions, which can not be confirmed or refuted at the present stage.
Scientists continue to explore the smallest details andfacts, compiling statistics and theories, as well as developing instruments for further study of the World Ocean. It remains to hope that the innovations created by the future technologies will shed light on the dark riddles of the past that lurk at the very bottom of the sea depths.
