Blood mystery in antatica

Blood fall

There is a region in Antarctica, which not many people have been fortunate enough to visit, but it has been deemed by many experts as one of the most alien, bizarre, weird and mysterious places on earth. True to its name, the Blood Falls refer to a waterfall that flows from the Taylor Glacier, baffling most microbiologists and glaciologist because of its blood red hue. Researchers have found unusually large quantities of iron oxide in Western Lake Bonney located in the area.

It is this path breaking discovery that has been inferred as the reason for the color of the falls. It is even more peculiar that amidst all that iron, microorganisms are able to survive at a depth of 1300 feet under the ice.

Underground cities mistery

Derinkuyu This ancient Turkish city could house more than 50 thousand people, reached eleven stories below ground, and was built in the 7th or 8th century by Christians hiding from persecution. Turkey is full of underground cities, in part because the volcanic rock in the region is easy to carve out. Cheyenne Mountain Once home to NORAD, this underground city was built down Colorado's Cheyenne Mountain to hold thousands of people and withstand a nuclear attack. Though it was secure during the Cold War, advances in missile technology mean that it's no longer a sure bet when the nukes fall. So NORAD has been moved to a new location, and the city remains standing some people still live there but it may become a museum soon. Portland In Portland, Oregon on the west coast of the United States, there's a wide network of underground tunnels, former homes and businesses. The place was used almost entirely for bars before and during Prohibition,...

Mistery in easter island alien

EASTER ISLAND The puzzles surrounding the moai(a place), Easter Island’s fleet of big stone figure, pretty much follow the same narrative as the other sites described here:-How in the world did the Rapa Nui make these figures more than 1,500 years ago? And how its possible? Carved from stone, the nearly 900 human figures are sprinkled along the flanks of the island’s extinct volcanoes. The figures average 13 feet tall and weigh 14 tons and appear to have been chiseled from the soft volcanic(heat hill) tuff found in the Rano Raraku quarry. There, more than 400 statues are still in many other states of construction, with some completed figures awaiting transportation to their thought resting place. The reasons for carving the moai are mysterious, though they were likely sculpted for religious or ritual(like ritual reason) reasons. It’s also not exactly clear what happened to the stone crafting Rapa Nui, but a leading theory suggests their civilization s...

California mistery

Racetrack Playa How ordinary stones manage to "sail" over the surface of racetrack playa in Death Valley National Park is a mystery people have tried to solve since 1915, when a prospector and his wife noticed tracks that seemed to indicate that the stones had somehow traveled across the dry earth. Short of cosmic intervention, the stones required terrestrial forces to move them. The current prevailing theory about the "sailing stones" of Racetrack Playa, presented by a team of physicists in 2011, involves ice that forms around the stones, causing them to move and to leave a trail in their wake. Many visitors still hope for a more mystical explanation.
