Has Science Finally Solved The Bermuda Triangle Mystery?

For decades, scientists, explorers, and regular people have tried to figure out the mystery of ‘The Bermuda Triangle’ to no avail – but now, scientists believe they may have found the answer to why so many planes and ships have disappeared in the dreaded area: massive methane bubble explosions. According to groundbreaking reports, the mystery may have been solved by an anomaly on the sea floor thousands of miles from the infamous Bermuda Triangle site – off of the coast of Norway, where giant craters emitting methane may have the answers to the long debated phenomenon of the Bermuda Triangle: The large chasms on the ocean floor are around half a mile wide and 150ft deep. They could have been caused by gas leaking from deposits of oil and gas buried deeper in the sea floor. The gases are thought to accumulate in sea-floor sediments before bursting through the sea bed and into the surrounding waters. Further details of the findings will be released in April at the annual meeting of the European Geosciences Union. Among the topics of debate is whether the methane bubbles could threaten the safety of ships. One mystery that they could help to explain is the disappearance of ships [...]
