Meteorologists explained the phenomenon of the Bermuda triangle Mail.Ru

Dr. Steve Miller from the meteorologist at the University of Colorado (USA) in the air Science Channel said that the Bermuda triangle has gained notoriety portal to the underworld, where lost ships and planes science to explain the phenomena, reports the Mirror.

As scientists have found, over an area of approximately 500 000 km2, situated between Florida, Bermuda and the Puerto Rico clouds are formed hexagonal shape. You can see them on satellite images. According to Miller, the clouds formed a sharp wind, comparable in strength with the shock wave from a powerful bomb.

With the help of radar satellites to measure processes occurring in the upper atmosphere, the experts found that the wind gusts reach the speed of 270 km/h, hit the surface of the ocean create waves up to 40 m, are able to turn the ships and disrupt the flight path of the aircraft.

As a rule, clouds do not form smooth geometric shapes and do not possess sharply defined lines, but over the Bermuda triangle, such a phenomenon is possible, explained the researchers.

the Bermuda triangle decades nourishes conspiracy theories, literary themes and expands the cinematic products. Those who are of the opinion that the mysterious disappearances in this area do occur, put forward various hypotheses to explain them: from unusual weather patterns to alien abductions or the people of Atlantis.
