Since the dawn of time, man has sought to understand the Earth, space and the universe: its origin, composition and formation. To do so, he has examined our planet from all points of view through physics, biology, mathematics and even philosophy. Thanks to current scientific progress, research is progressing and many concrete and rational answers are being found. However, there are still unexplored elements, parts of the Earth for which we still have many questions. Among them, the ocean arouses curiosity.

💥 THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE:
To understand how the legend of the Bermuda Triangle was born, it is interesting to take a little trip back in time.
Long before there was talk of the infamous "Bermuda Triangle", there were reports of strange and unjustified events at sea. Indeed, in 1492, Christopher Columbus, the famous navigator, reported in his sailing reports that his compass had malfunctioned while he was in the Bahamas.
In 1515, the Spanish navigator Juan de Bermudez discovered the Bermuda archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean, off the eastern coast of America. As early as 1600, the English settled there after a shipwreck and created the first capital, Saint-Georges.
This archipelago of 300 small islands was quickly colonized by the English and became British in 1707. The Bermuda Triangle area quickly became an obligatory passage for sailors, who thus gained precious time on their journey.
The modern history of disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle began in the early 19th century. On June 10, 1800, the American schooner USS Pickering left Boston for Guadeloupe. The 23-meter ship was last seen in Newcastle and is believed to have disappeared with its crew of 105 in September of that year. The most plausible explanation is that it was caught in a cyclone. A tragic event, but not very surprising given the weather conditions in the region.
Except that, from then on, the disappearances followed one another:
In 1854, the Bella, a British ship bound for Jamaica, was reported missing.
In 1866, the Swedish three-master Lotta was lost, followed two years later by the Spanish merchant ship Viego. The last two were never found.
One by one, the Atalanta, the Miramon, the Cyclops and the SS Cotopaxi disappeared. By 1945, nearly 30 planes and ships had disappeared in the ocean, most without a trace.
While tragic events followed one another, without ever being explained, a mystery naturally and peacefully took hold.
But it was in 1945, with the story of the disappearance of the 19th Squadron, that the legend of the Bermuda Triangle went from being a simple "mysterious accident" to a sensational fact. Writers then seized on these stories, based on cases of ships and planes that ran aground without their bodies being found. The enigmatic theory of alien abduction was often mentioned. At the time, research did not allow for scientific answers, so it was difficult to reasonably explain the facts.
