The text discusses various unexplained phenomena and mysteries of the ocean. It starts by mentioning the existence of underwater lakes that can be deadly to any creature that enters them. The text then shifts to the Baltic Sea, where a UFO-like structure was discovered in 2011, sparking debate about its origins.
The text also touches on the topic of the Megalodon, a massive prehistoric shark that is believed to be extinct, but some researchers claim to have found evidence of its existence in recent times. Additionally, the text mentions the discovery of underwater cities, such as Yonaguni Jima in Japan, which is believed by some to be a man-made structure.
The text also explores the mysteries of the deep sea, including the existence of strange creatures and the discovery of new species. It also mentions the Bermuda Triangle, a region in the North Atlantic Ocean where numerous planes and ships have disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
The text also discusses the topic of unexplained sounds in the ocean, including the "Bloop" sound, which was detected in 1997 and is believed by some to be the sound of a giant squid or a new species of fish. Finally, the text concludes by highlighting the vastness and mystery of the ocean, which remains largely unexplored.
Here are the key facts from the text:
1. Underwater lakes in the ocean can be five times saltier than seawater and are capable of killing any creature that enters them.
2. The Baltic Sea UFO is a 60-meter diameter, 8-meter high structure discovered in 2012 at a depth of 80 meters.
3. The object is surrounded by a 300-meter long trail and has strange rock formations with stones arranged in a circle.
4. Electronic devices often malfunction or fail to work near the Baltic Sea UFO.
5. The Megalodon, a massive predator, existed 65 million years ago and is considered the ancestor of the great white shark.
6. Some researchers claim to have found Megalodon teeth dating back 5,000 years off the Australian coast.
7. The Megalodon was estimated to be around 15 meters in length.
8. Many fishermen and biologists have reported seeing sharks larger than average, with some exceeding 10 meters in length.
9. A white shark was tracked by GPS and found to have been carried to a depth of 600 meters, where it was likely devoured by an unknown creature.
10. The Yonaguni Jima underwater ruins were discovered in 1985 and are believed by some to be man-made, while others attribute them to natural geological processes.
11. The ruins have right-angled stairs, a general shape, and numerous steps and hollows that challenge researchers.
12. The Riou archipelago in Japan has numerous underwater ruins that have lasted for centuries or even millennia.
13. The abyssal zone, between 2 and 6 km deep, is home to strange creatures that are adapted to the extreme environment.
14. The Bermuda Triangle is an imaginary place with no physical borders, but its unique topography and strong currents make it a relatively dangerous area for navigation.
15. Nearly 100 planes and ships have disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle since the 1800s.
16. Researchers have proposed various explanations for the disappearances, including electromagnetic disturbances and methane eruptions.
17. The "Bloop" sound, recorded in the Pacific Ocean, is one of the six strangest audio recordings and has been attributed to various sources, including a giant squid or a new species of fish.
18. The sound's amplitude is sufficient to be heard over 5,000 km, and researchers have deduced that it was likely a cry of earthquake, or a movement of ice emitted by a square iceberg.
19. The point of the ocean farthest from any land has almost the same geographical coordinates as the fictional sunken city of R'lyeh from H.P. Lovecraft's story "The Call of the Cthulhu".
20. Only 5% of the aquatic world has been explored, and there is still much to be discovered.
