"For some, it's the most feared stretch of water on the entire planet. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region in the North Atlantic Ocean that has long been shrouded in mystery. According to legend, ships and airplanes have a tendency to go missing there, sparking theories of supernatural causes for these disappearances. For decades, commentators have speculated on the possibility of alien kidnappings, interdimensional portals, magnetic forces or even lost cities in the triangle."
"Dr Simon Boxall, an oceanographer at the University of Southampton, recently said that the disappearances can be explained by weather - and not to do with such far-fetched concepts. However, there are still key unanswered questions surrounding the phenomenon, which attracts scientific interest along with wacky theories. And they mean this section of the North Atlantic will continue to fascinate for many more years to come."
The Bermuda Triangle in the North Atlantic has a long-standing reputation for unexplained disappearances of ships and aircraft. Legendary explanations include alien abductions, interdimensional portals, magnetic anomalies and lost cities. High-profile unresolved cases include the 1918 loss of the USS Cyclops with 306 crew and no recovered wreckage, and the disappearance of Flight 19. Oceanographers point to natural causes such as severe weather and aircraft breakup on impact, yet the absence of wreckage in some cases sustains public fascination. The region continues to draw both scientific study and sensational theories.
