The universe is filled with mysteries we can't explain. As we continue to grow in
our scientific knowledge of the planet, there's still so much of the universe that
is a mystery to us and needs explaining. Mankind can be humbled and inspired by
these naturally occurring unexplained phenomena, that leave even our best
scientists scratching their heads and looking for answers.
Here's Some Of God's Teasers. Enjoy! :)
The Hum: This phenomenon, reported worldwide, is a low-frequency hum or droning
sound, unexplained by science. The source of this noise remains unknown but
fortunately only 2% of the world are able to hear it.
Synchronized Firefly Light: A species of glowing beetles known as Synchronous
fireflies, indigenous to Tennessee's Great Smokey Mountains, are a rare and
striking sight. They have the unique ability to synchronize their blinking. Just
how they are able to do this is still a mystery.
Naga Fireballs: An occurrence in both Thailand and Laos, there are reports
of glowing red orbs that rise from the famous Mekong River. Several thousand
fireballs supposedly rise a few hundred meters high, and then disappear. A
case that defies explanation.
Singing Whales: Did you know that humpback whales have a unique talent? They
can sing and can even teach each other songs. It was once considered part of
the mating ritual but that myth has been debunked, and the phenomena remains
unexplained. Males engage in it more than the females and it's a mystery as
to why but it has been noted that when a male humpback moves someplace new,
he changes his song to match those coming from other nearby whales.
The Silent Zone: There's an area in the Chihuahuan desert in northern Mexico
where radio signals don't work, and compasses spin out of control when placed
near stones on the ground. Outside Durango, Mexico the Mapimi Silent Zone is
distinguished for its utter lack of noise. This bizarre silent area is also
noted for its ability to attract things meant for the sky such as Apollo boosters
and meteorites.
Bigfoot, Sasquatch And The Yeti: A fan favorite among conspiracy theory enthusiasts,
this persistent myth of a recluse giant ape species has many sightings. Sasquatch
stories go back centuries. Tales of mythical giant apes lurk in the oral traditions
of most Native American tribes, as well as in Europe and Asia. Scientists remain
skeptical due to a lack of physical proof.
Cats Purring: No one knows for sure why a domestic cat purrs, but many people
interpret the sound as one of contentment. Our understanding of how a domestic
cat purrs is becoming more complete; most scientists agree that the larynx
(voice box), laryngeal muscles, and a neural oscillator are involved.
However, their pastime of purring seems to baffle professionals. While most
people think of it as a sign of a happy cat, cats purr at other times such as
when petted, eating or even giving birth or when it is injured and in pain.
Like manna from heaven, creatures falling from the sky seems like a thing of
fantasy or divinity, but reports in Mexico as recent as 2017 say otherwise. The
director of civil protection in Tamaulipas state confirmed reports that
several fish fell from the sky during a light rain. And as it turns out, the
phenomenon isn't exactly unprecedented. During a large storm Ethiopians
enjoyed a rainfall of thousands of fish, while scientists speculate the power
of the wind was at play, it's still pretty phenomenal.
Suicidal Whales: While it is known that there are many cases of beached whales,
what is often not mentioned is that there is evidence that these whales are
doing it on purpose. While we have no clue why whales are suicidal, it seems
likely to continue since this evolutionary phenomenon has been documented for
thousands of years.
The Loch Ness Monster: Affectionetly called Nessie by the locals, much like
Sasquatch, there is little proof that this infamous water creature even exists.
Attracting thousands of visitors and amateur documentarians, this legendary
Scottish loch continues to mystify with its purported inhabitants.
Earthquake Light: For centuries, people have noted luminous activity in the sky
before volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. There's much speculation as to why
these two unrelated disasters emit the same striking light effect. This century
old occurrence was first captured on film in the 1960s. Ever since then scientists
have been working on finding a reason why.
Fairy Circles: A phenomenon unique to the grasslands of southern Africa, decorating
the landscape en masse these large circular areas feature no plantlife and are
encircled by grass. These circles form mysteriously with diameters as large as
15 meters and continue to stump the scientific community. Studies suggest that a
sand termite might be responsible for their creation. But it is still a mystery.
