Bermuda Triangle



Dana Rucereto Connections#2 3/30/09 Mrs.Crawford Have you ever wondered about the Bermuda Triangle? For about 60 years, the Bermuda Triangle has been a mysterious place where ships and planes have been disappearing. One would think these beautiful blue waters would not cause harm, but looks can be deceiving. Is this a mystery or just weird science? This paper will attempt to find out the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle by examining new and old evidence and resources. The Bermuda Triangle is one of only two places on earth that a magnetic compass does actually 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 compass variation or error is not compensated for, a navigator could find himself far off course and in deep trouble. The location of the Bermuda Triangle is a region of the Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda, Miami, Florida, and San Juan, Puerto Rico. The first time we ever realized that the Bermuda Triangle was not the best place to go was when news stories appeared in the newspapers on September 16, 1950. Still today lots of people are afraid to go there. “Two years later, 1952, //[|Fate]// magazine published "Sea Mystery At Our Back Door", a short article by George X. Sand covering the loss of several planes and ships, including the loss of [|Flight 19], a group of five [|U.S. Navy] [|TBM Avenger] bombers on a training mission.” (History of the Triangle Area) The Bermuda Triangle is known to be where ships and planes have just mysteriously been disappearing for over 60 years.

There are many theroies on the Bermuda Triangle. Some people say that the weather is the cause of the dissapearences or time warps, but the most common is that it has to do with aliens from a different world. One theorie is that the disappearances have to do with beings from another world.The Bermuda Triangle is a collecting station where aliens take our people, ships, planes and other objects back to their planet to study, or perhaps to save them from a holocaust. Others think that the planes and ships are sent to another dimension. "There has remained a percentage of the total, in the order of twenty percent of the reports, that have come from credible observers of relatively incredible things..." (Major General John A. Samford USAF, Director of Intelligence) in other words about 20% of reports that have come in are incredible ,and have to do with UFOs. With all these reports people have brought in pictures ,but the researcher says that they are foggy and blurry. So these theories do not have definite facts and evidence to support them, just foggy and blurry pictures.

Countless theories attempting to explain the many disappearances have been offered throughout the history of the area. The most practical seem to be enviormental and those citing human error. The majority of disappearances can be attributed to the area's unique environmental features. But the Bermuda Triangle is one of only two places on earth that a magnetic compass does actually 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 compass variation or error is not compensated for, a navigator could find himself far off course and in deep trouble. The bermuda triangle also gets very big waves, so the boat or plane could of been smashed into a million little pieces ,and then disintergrate. But a time warp is very false, a whirl pool is possible ,but not the time warp.

This paper has attemptted to try and solve the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle by examining new and old evidence and resources. After all of my research I believe the truth is that it has to do with human error and the enviorment. Remember that these horrible happenings did not ocurr because of time warps. Another interesting thing to remember is that the Bermuda Triangle has been lasting for over 60 years and counting. I hope that you have learned alot of information about the Bermuda Triangle as I have.
