All the most inexplicable. Unexplained phenomena

The history of the planet Earth is full of amazing inexplicable mysteries. And a lifetime is not enough to unravel them. But you can look through the keyhole of the door, behind which lies a whole world of inexplicable mysteries on our planet.

12 photos of inexplicable things on planet Earth:

1. Obelisk, Egypt

The obelisk began to be cut down right in the rock, but cracks began to appear along it. It was left unfinished. The sizes are simply stunning!

2. Gate of the Sun, Bolivia

The Gates of the Sun are located in Tiwanaku, an ancient and mysterious city. Some scholars believe that in the first millennium AD it was the center of a vast empire. Until now, there is no idea what the drawings on the gates mean. Maybe they carried some astrological and astronomical value.

3. Underwater city, about. Yonaguni, Japan

The complex was accidentally discovered by diving instructor Kihachiro Aratake. This underwater city destroys all scientific theories. The rock in which it was carved went under water about 10,000 years ago, that is, much earlier than the construction of the Egyptian pyramids. According to the modern ideas of some scientists, in that distant era, people huddled in caves and only knew how to collect edible roots and hunt wild animals, and not build stone cities.

4. L'Anse-o-Meadows, Canada

This settlement was founded by the Vikings about 1000 years ago. And this means that they got to North America much earlier than Christopher Columbus was born.

5. Moa bird

Moas are flightless birds that lived in New Zealand and became extinct around 1500, destroyed (according to one theory) by the Maori natives. But during one of the expeditions, scientists stumbled upon a huge part of the bird's paw, which is incredibly well preserved.

6. Lunyu Grottoes, China

These grottoes were carved into the sandstone by humans - a difficult task that must have involved thousands of Chinese, but nowhere is there any mention of these grottoes and the hard work involved in creating them.

7. Sacsayhuaman Temple Complex, Peru

This temple complex amazes with its impeccable masonry without a single drop of connecting mortar (even a piece of paper cannot be inserted between some of the stones). And the way the surface of each block is perfectly processed.

8 Stone Age Tunnels

The discovery of a vast network of underground tunnels (stretching across Europe from Scotland to Turkey) suggests that Stone Age people spent their days not only hunting and gathering. But the real purpose of the tunnels is still a complete mystery. Some researchers believe that their task was to protect people from predators, while others believe that people traveled through this system, protected from weather and wars.

9. Mohenjo-Daro ("Hill of the Dead"), Pakistan

For many decades, archaeologists have been concerned about the mystery of the death of this city. In 1922, the Indian archaeologist R. Banarji discovered ancient ruins on one of the islands of the Indus River. Even then, questions arose: how was this big city destroyed, where did its inhabitants go? None of them have been answered by excavations.

10. Giant stone balls of Costa Rica

Mysterious stone formations of perfectly round shape intrigue not only with their appearance, but also with their incomprehensible origin and purpose. They were first discovered in the 1930s by workers clearing the jungle for banana plantations. Local legends said that gold was supposed to be hidden inside the mysterious stone balls. But they were empty. It is not known by whom and for what purpose these petrospheres were created. It can be assumed that these were symbols of heavenly bodies or designations of boundaries between the lands of different tribes.

11. Golden figurines of the Incas

The golden figurines found in South America look like aircraft, and it's hard to believe. What served as a prototype for the creation of these figures is unknown.

12. Genetic disk

An incredible artifact - a genetic disk - depicts things and processes that a modern person can only observe under a microscope. The disk most likely shows the process of nucleation and development of the embryo. Also one of the strange drawings is the head of a man of an incomprehensible shape. The disk is made of durable stone called lidite. With its exceptional strength, this stone has a layered structure, and, despite the presence of this ancient artifact, it seems impossible to make something similar to it both practically and theoretically.

A huge mysterious city, including skyscrapers, hovering in the clouds over the city of Foshan in the central province of Guangdong, China appeared in the sky on October 7, 2015. The phenomenon, which happened in front of hundreds of shocked locals, lasted only a few minutes before completely disappearing. One of the hypotheses discussed in many forums is that this is a Mirage, a natural optical phenomenon. Another version is Fata Morgana. However, others have expressed concerns that this is mysterious ...

TOP 10 amazing and inexplicable facts! WOW signal

On August 15, 1977, Jerry Ehman received a radio signal from space whose origin was widely considered to be potentially neither 'ethereal' nor 'non-solar'. Surprised by how closely the signal matched the supposed cosmic signal marker, Eiman circled it on the computer printout and wrote his comment: “Wow!”. It was this statement by Eiman that became the name of the signal.

The strange flight of the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft

The space research stations Pioneer 10 and 11 (launched in 1972 and 1973) have long since completed their missions around the solar system, but scientists still pay special attention to them. Although Pioneer 11 was completely lost, both research stations unexpectedly (and it is not clear why) changed the direction of their flights. However, the mysteries do not end there: both ships appear to be heading in the same direction.

The bewildered scientists cited a myriad of speculations about it: computer bugs, solar winds, fuel leaks. However, this all remained only at the level of assumptions, nothing has been proven.

female orgasm

Some scientists believe that the female orgasm is a rudimentary concept, that is, it does not have any obvious evolutionary function. In their opinion, the female orgasm in no way contributes to the fact that the chances of fertilization increase. Other researchers argue that this opinion is false, since the psychosocial aspects of a woman's orgasm were not taken into account.

dark energy

Most physicists once believed that the expansion of the universe was gradually decreasing. But already in 1998 it became clear that this was not the case. On the contrary, our universe continues to expand. The explanation for this may be a phenomenon called dark energy, which supposedly makes up 3 quarters of our universe.

The general consensus is that dark energy rarely propagates, but interacts with other objects through gravity. Dark energy has a negative pressure that literally tears the universe apart. This is what explains the constant expansion of the universe.

speed of light

According to Einstein's theory of relativity, there is nothing faster than the speed of light. Well, scientists had to try to do the impossible, and they succeeded. In 2000, scientists at Princeton University sent a small laser pulse through steam made from cesium gas. The researchers achieved their goal: the laser pulse traveled through the vapor space faster than light.

Placebo effect

A placebo is a pill or medication that is essentially a drug but does not actually contain any active ingredients and therefore has no effect on the person taking the placebo. This mysterious phenomenon is called the placebo effect. How our psyche can affect health is still not completely clear to science, but scientists are working hard on this and, perhaps, soon the veil of secrecy will be ajar.

Cold nuclear fusion

When the atoms collide with enough force, they can combine. Together with this merger, a huge amount of energy is released. All kinds of scientific theories tell us that this can only happen in an environment with incredibly strong energy, for example, in the solar core.

However, scientific experiments have shown that this can be achieved in a real environment. If you conduct an electrical voltage between palladium electrodes in water that contains deuterium and heavy hydrogen, an incredible phenomenon will occur before your eyes.

Yawn

Yawning is usually perceived as a sign of fatigue or longing, but no one will deny the fact that a person yawns not only when he is bored or sleepy. Anaerobic athletes such as weightlifters or sprinters often find themselves yawning during the most intense workouts and competitions. Yawning is also inexplicably “contagious”: if someone around you yawns, you will certainly want to do the same.

One hypothetical function of yawning is the accumulation of carbon dioxide. However, this does not explain all aspects of yawning: for example, why it is still so contagious.

Dark matter

All objects attract other objects to themselves, and the more objects an object can attract to itself, the greater its force of attraction. Everything is quite simple. However, the modern understanding of the concept of gravity does not give us an explanation of why visible objects move freely in the universe.

In order to solve this problem, modern physicists have created a special hypothetical substance - dark matter. The presence of dark matter can only be determined by its gravitational effect on larger objects. It is believed that dark matter makes up most of the mass of the universe.

What happened before and what will happen after

There are a huge number of different theories describing what will happen if our universe does come to an end. But besides, it is full of different hypotheses of the origin of our world. Yes, in this case it is not at all necessary to be a specialist in quantum mechanics in order to say that any of these theories cannot be tested for veracity.

Some questions are simply impossible to answer. Where does a person go after death? What is the purpose of human life? These questions will haunt the curious mind of man for a long time to come.

People around the world are witnessing strange and sometimes inexplicable paranormal phenomena. Our country is rich not only in natural resources, but also in strange places and mysterious phenomena. Today I will tell you about 11 of the most interesting and famous of them.

Astronaut meeting with UFO

The pioneers of space exploration had a hard time: the technologies of the beginning of the space age of mankind left much to be desired, so emergency situations arose quite often, like the one that Alexey Leonov encountered, almost remaining in outer space.

But some of the surprises that lay in wait for the space pioneers in orbit were not related to the equipment at all. Many Soviet cosmonauts who returned from orbit spoke about unidentified flying objects that appeared near terrestrial spacecraft, and scientists still cannot explain this phenomenon.

Twice Hero of the Soviet Union, cosmonaut Vladimir Kovalyonok said that during his stay at the Salyut-6 station in 1981, he observed a bright, luminous object the size of a finger, rapidly enveloping the Earth in orbit. Kovalenok called the crew commander Viktor Savinykh, and he, seeing an unusual phenomenon, immediately went for the camera. At this time, the “finger” flashed and split into two objects connected to each other, and then disappeared.

It was not possible to photograph it, but the crew immediately reported the phenomenon to Earth.
Observations of unknown objects were also repeatedly reported by participants in the missions of the Mir station, as well as employees of the Baikonur Cosmodrome - UFOs appear quite often in its vicinity.

Chelyabinsk meteorite

On February 15 of this year, residents of Chelyabinsk and neighboring settlements observed an extraordinary phenomenon: a celestial body entered the Earth's atmosphere, which, when falling, was 30 times brighter than the Sun. As it turned out later, it was a meteorite, although various versions of the phenomenon were put forward, up to the use of secret weapons or intrigues of aliens (many still do not exclude such a possibility).

Exploding in the air, the meteorite split into many pieces, the largest of which fell into Lake Chebarkul near Chelyabinsk, and the rest of the fragments scattered over a vast territory, including some regions of Russia and Kazakhstan. According to NASA, this is the largest space object that has fallen to Earth since the Tunguska fireball.

The “guest” from outer space caused quite significant damage to the city: the glass in many buildings was shattered by the blast wave, and about 1,600 people were injured of varying severity.

The series of "space" adventures for Chelyabinsk residents did not end there: a few weeks after the meteorite fell, on the night of March 20, a huge luminous ball hovered in the sky above the city. It was observed by many townspeople, but there is no exact explanation of where the “second Sun” suddenly appeared from, and even at night. However, some believe that the ball arose due to the reflection of the lights of the city on specially located ice crystals in the atmosphere - that night Chelyabinsk was covered with thick cold fog.

Sakhalin monster

The remains of an unknown creature were found by the Russian army on the coast of Sakhalin Island in September 2006. According to the structure of the skull, the monster somewhat resembles a crocodile, but the rest of the skeleton is completely different from any reptile known to science. It also cannot be attributed to fish, and the locals, to whom the soldiers showed the find, could not identify in it any creature living in these waters. The remnants of animal tissues have been preserved, and, judging by them, it was covered with wool. The body was quickly picked up by representatives of the special services, and its further study took place "behind closed doors."

Now most experts are inclined to believe that these were the remains of some kind of cetacean, according to some versions, killer whales or beluga whales, but others object that the creature differs from both of them in its skeleton. As an alternative to the "accepted" point of view, one can name the opinion that the remains belonged to a prehistoric animal, which probably still survived in the depths of the oceans.

Seeing off the mermaid

Mermaids are one of the main characters of Russian folklore. According to legend, these spirits living in water bodies are born as a result of the painful death of women and children, and rumor has it that meeting with a mermaid does not bode well: they often seduce men, luring them into the abyss of a lake or swamp, steal children, scare animals and generally behave not too decently. According to tradition, in order for the year to be successful and fertile, the villagers brought various gifts to the mermaids, sang songs about them and danced in honor of these restless souls.

Of course, now such beliefs are far from being as common as in the old days, however, in some parts of Russia, rituals associated with mermaids still take place. The most significant of them is the so-called Mermaid Week (also known as Trinity Week or Seeing the Mermaid) - the week preceding the Trinity (50th day after Easter).

The main part of the ritual is the making and destruction of a stuffed mermaid, accompanied by fun, music and dancing. During Mermaid Week, women do not wash their hair to protect themselves from spirits, and men carry garlic and walnuts with them for the same purpose. Of course, at this time it is strictly forbidden to enter the water - so as not to be dragged away by some bored mermaid.

Russian Roswell

A missile military range near the village of Kapustin Yar in the northwest of the Astrakhan region is often found in reports of the most strange and inexplicable incidents. Various UFOs and other curious phenomena are observed here with surprising regularity. Because of the most high-profile case of this kind, Kapustin Yar was nicknamed Russian Roswell by analogy with the city in the US state of New Mexico, where, according to some assumptions, an alien ship crashed in 1947.

Almost a year after the Roswell incident, on June 19, 1948, a silvery cigar-shaped object appeared in the sky over Kapustin Yar. On alarm, three MiG interceptors were raised into the air, and one of them managed to knock out a UFO. The "Cigar" immediately fired a beam at the fighter, and it crashed to the ground, unfortunately, the pilot did not have time to eject. The silvery object also fell in the vicinity of Kapustin Yar, and it was immediately transported to the bunker of the landfill.

Of course, many have questioned this information more than once, but some documents of the State Security Committee, declassified in 1991, indicate that the military has repeatedly seen something over Kapustin Yar that does not yet fit into the framework of modern science.

Ninel Kulagina

During the Second World War, then Nina Sergeevna Kulagina served as a radio operator in a tank and participated in the defense of the Northern capital. As a result of her injury, she was commissioned, and after the blockade of Leningrad was lifted, she married and gave birth to a child.

In the early 1960s, she became famous throughout the Soviet Union as Ninel Kulagina, a psychic and possessor of other paranormal abilities. She could heal people with the power of her mind, determine color with the touch of her fingers, see through the fabric that lies in people's pockets, move objects at a distance, and much more. Her gift was often studied and tested by specialists from various institutions, including secret scientific institutes, and many testified that Ninel was either an extremely clever charlatan or actually possessed anomalous skills.

There is no convincing evidence of the former, although some of the former employees of the Soviet research institutes assure that when demonstrating "supernatural" abilities, Kulagin used various tricks and sleight of hand, which was known to the KGB experts investigating her activities.

Until her death in 1990, Ninel Kulagina was considered one of the most powerful psychics of the 20th century, and the inexplicable phenomena associated with her were designated the “K-phenomenon”.

Dragon from Brosno

Lake Brosno, located in the Tver region, is the deepest freshwater lake in Europe, but it is known to the whole world mainly because of the mysterious creature that the locals believe lives in it.

According to numerous (but, unfortunately, not documented) stories, an animal about five meters long, resembling something like a dragon, has been seen in the lake more than once, although almost all observers describe it differently. One of the local legends says that a long time ago, the "dragon from Brosno" was eaten by the Tatar-Mongolian warriors, who made a halt on the shore of the lake. According to another story, in the middle of Brosno, an "island" suddenly appeared, which disappeared after a while - it is assumed that it was the back of a huge unknown beast.

Although there is no reliable information about the monster supposedly living in the lake, many agree that some oddities do sometimes occur in Brosno and its environs.

Space Defense Troops

Russia has always sought to protect itself from all possible external (and internal) threats, and more recently, the defense interests of our Motherland include the security of its borders. To repel an attack from outer space, the Space Forces were created in 2001, and in 2011, the Space Defense Forces (VKO) were formed on their basis.

The tasks of this branch of the military include mainly the organization of missile defense and the control of military satellites coordinating it, although the command also considers the possibility of aggression from alien races. True, in early October of this year, answering the question of whether the East Kazakhstan region was ready for an alien attack, Sergey Berezhnoy, assistant head of the German Titov Main Test Space Center, said: “Unfortunately, we are not yet ready to fight extraterrestrial civilizations” . Let's hope the aliens don't know about it.

Ghosts of the Kremlin

There are few places in our country that can compare with the Moscow Kremlin in terms of mystery and the number of ghost stories that are found there. For several centuries it has served as the main stronghold of Russian statehood, and, according to legend, the restless souls of the victims of the struggle for it (and with it) still roam the Kremlin corridors and dungeons.

Some say that in the Ivan the Great Bell Tower you can sometimes hear the cries and groans of Ivan the Terrible, atoning for his sins. Others mention that they saw the spirit of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin in the Kremlin, moreover, three months before his death, when the leader of the world proletariat was seriously ill and no longer left his residence in Gorki. But the most famous ghost of the Kremlin is, of course, the spirit of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, who appears whenever shocks await the country. The ghost is cold, and sometimes he seems to be trying to say something, perhaps warning the leadership of the state against mistakes.

Black bird of Chernobyl(although not Russia, but also worthy of attention)

A few days before the infamous accident of the fourth power unit of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, four plant employees reported seeing what looked like a huge dark man with wings and glowing red eyes. Most of all, this description resembles the so-called Mothman - a mysterious creature that allegedly repeatedly appeared in the city of Point Pleasant in the US state of West Virginia.

The workers of the Chernobyl station who met the fantastic monster claimed that after the meeting they received several threatening calls and almost everyone began to have vivid, incredibly scary nightmares.

On April 26, the nightmare happened not in the dreams of the employees, but at the station itself, and the amazing stories were forgotten, but only for a short time: while the fire that raged after the explosion was extinguished, survivors of the flames said that they clearly saw a 6-meter black bird that flew out from the clubs of radioactive smoke that poured out of the destroyed fourth block.

Well to hell

In 1984, Soviet geologists launched an ambitious project to drill an ultra-deep well on the Kola Peninsula. The main goal was to satisfy scientific research curiosity and test the fundamental possibility of such a deep penetration into the thickness of the planet.

According to legend, when the drill reached a depth of about 12 km, the instruments registered strange sounds coming from the depths and most of all resembling screams and groans. In addition, voids were found at great depths, the temperature in which reached 1100 ° C. Some even reported a demon flying out of a well and a flaming "I have conquered" sign appearing in the sky after terrifying screams were heard from a hole in the ground.

All this gave rise to rumors that Soviet scientists drilled a "well into hell", however, many of the "evidence" does not stand up to scientific criticism: for example, it is documented that the temperature at the lowest point reached by the drill was 220 ° C.

Perhaps David Mironovich Guberman, one of the authors and project managers of the Kola super-deep well, told the best about the “well”: “When I am asked about this mysterious story, I don’t know what to answer. On the one hand, stories about the "demon" are bullshit. On the other hand, as an honest scientist, I cannot say that I know what exactly happened here. Indeed, a very strange noise was recorded, then there was an explosion ... A few days later, nothing of the kind was found at the same depth.
