There are many unsolved mysteries on earth may it be in life, science, technology or research. We demand for logical explanations behind these mysteries but even up to now, these mysteries remain unsolved. One of these unsolved mysteries is THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE
THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE
The Bermuda Triangle is a 500,000 square mile area between between Puerto Rico, Miami and Bermuda. It is known as the Devil's Triangle because hundreds of aircraft and ships have disappeared here since 1918. This year marks the 1st century since the beginning of the disappearance in the Bermuda Triangle.
Flight 19
Perhaps Flight 19 is one of the most famous mysterious disappearance in the Bermuda Triangle.
The Bermuda Triangle’s reputation as a boat and plane-devouring chasm was first sealed in December 1945, when a group of five U.S. Navy Avenger torpedo bombers known as “Flight 19” vanished in the Atlantic off the coast of Florida. No sign of the Avengers was ever found, and a Navy seaplane sent to rescue them also disappeared without a trace. Take a look back at one of the most perplexing mysteries in aviation history.

It was on the 5th of December, 1945 when a group of five planes departed a Naval Air Station in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It was supposed to be a routine exercise that should not have posed a problem for 14 experienced crewmen and pilots. Just two hours in the exercise, and they were expected to be heading back when the pilot of the leading plane reported that he lost control of the direction when both of his compasses are malfunctioning.
Whatever this mysterious force is, it is certainly not selective about when, how or what it strikes. Until these mysteries are resolved, we will forever question why this phenomena happens.
