April 12 marks the 56th anniversary of the appearance of man in space. Since then, astronauts regularly report incredible stories that happened to them in space. Strange sounds that cannot propagate in airless space, inexplicable visions and mysterious objects are present in the reports of many astronauts. Next, the story will talk about something for which there are no clear explanations yet.

A few years after the flight, Yuri Gagarin attended one of the concerts of the popular VIA. Then he admitted that he had already heard similar music, but not on Earth, but during a flight into space.

This fact is all the more strange since before Gagarin’s flight electronic music did not yet exist in our country, and it was precisely this melody that the first cosmonaut heard.

People who visited space later experienced similar sensations. For example, Vladislav Volkov spoke about strange sounds that literally surrounded him while in space.

“The earthly night was flying below. And suddenly from this night came... the barking of a dog. And then the crying of a child began to be clearly heard! And some voices. It is impossible to explain all this,” is how Volkov described the experience.

The sounds followed him almost the entire flight.

American astronaut Gordon Cooper said that while flying over the territory of Tibet, he was able to see houses and surrounding buildings with the naked eye.

Scientists gave the effect the name “increase in ground objects,” but scientific explanation There is no way yet to view something from a distance of 300 kilometers.

A similar phenomenon was experienced by cosmonaut Vitaly Sevastyanov, who said that while flying over Sochi he was able to see his own two-story house, which caused controversy among optics specialists.

Candidate of technical and philosophical sciences, test cosmonaut Sergei Krichevsky first heard about inexplicable space visions and sounds from his colleague, who spent six months on the Mir orbital complex.

When Krichevsky was preparing for his first flight into space, a colleague told him that while in space a person can be subject to fantastic daydreams, which were observed by many astronauts.

Literally, the warning was as follows: “A person undergoes one or more transformations. Transformations at that moment seem to him to be a natural phenomenon, as if it should be so. All astronauts have different visions...

One thing is similar: those who have been in such a state identify a certain powerful flow of information coming from outside. None of the astronauts can call this a hallucination - the sensations are too real."

Later, Krichevsky called this phenomenon the “Solaris effect,” which was described by the author Stanislav Lemm, whose science fiction work “Solaris” quite accurately predicted inexplicable cosmic phenomena.

Although there is no clear scientific answer regarding the occurrence of such visions, some scientists believe that the occurrence of such inexplicable cases is due to exposure to microwave radiation.

In 2003, Yang Liwei, who became the first Chinese astronaut to travel into space, also witnessed the inexplicable.

He was on board the Shenzhou 5 when one night on October 16 he heard a strange sound outside, like a crash.

According to the astronaut, he had the feeling that someone was knocking on the wall spaceship just like an iron ladle knocking on a tree. Liwei says that the sound did not come from outside, but also not from inside the spacecraft.

Liwei's stories have been called into question, since the propagation of any sound in a vacuum is impossible. But during Shenzhou's subsequent missions in space, two other Chinese astronauts heard the same knocking sound.

In 1969, American astronauts Tom Stafford, Gene Cernan and John Young were on the dark side of the Moon, quietly photographing craters. At that moment, they heard “an otherworldly, organized noise” coming from their headset.

“Cosmic Music” lasted for one hour. Scientists have suggested that the sound arose due to radio interference between spacecraft, but could three experienced astronauts mistake ordinary interference for an alien phenomenon?

May 5, 1981 Hero Soviet Union Pilot-cosmonaut Major General Vladimir Kovalenok noticed something inexplicable in the window of the Salyut station.

"Many astronauts have seen phenomena that go beyond the experience of earthlings. For ten years I never spoke about such things. At that time we were over the area South Africa, moving towards the Indian Ocean. I was just doing some gymnastic exercises when I saw an object in front of me through the porthole, the appearance of which I could not explain...

I was looking at this object, and then something happened that is impossible according to the laws of physics. The object had an elliptical shape. From the outside it seemed as if it was rotating in the direction of flight. After this, there was a kind of explosion of golden light...

Then a second or two later there was a second explosion somewhere else and two spheres appeared, golden and very beautiful. After this explosion I saw white smoke. The two spheres never returned."

In 2005, American astronaut Leroy Chiao, commander of the ISS, led it for six and a half months. One day he was installing antennas 230 miles above the Earth when he witnessed the inexplicable.

"I saw lights that seemed to be lined up. I saw them flying and thought it looked really weird," he later said.

Cosmonaut Musa Manarov spent a total of 541 days in space, of which one in 1991 was memorable for him more than others. On the way to space station"Mir" he managed to film a cigar-shaped UFO.

The video recording lasts two minutes. The astronaut said that this object glowed at certain moments and moved in a spiral in space.

Dr. Story Musgrave has six degrees and is a NASA astronaut. It was he who told a very colorful story about UFOs.

In a 1994 interview, he said: “I saw a snake in space. It was elastic because it had internal waves, and it followed us for quite a long period of time. The more you spend in space, the more incredible things you can see there.” .

Cosmonaut Vasily Tsibliev was tormented by visions in his sleep. While sleeping in this position, Tsibliev behaved extremely restlessly, he screamed, ground his teeth, and rushed about.

“I asked Vasily what was the matter? It turned out that he had enchanting dreams, which he sometimes took for reality. He could not retell them. He only insisted that he had never seen anything like this in his life,” said a colleague of the ship’s commander.

Six cosmonauts aboard the ISS, waiting for the arrival of Soyuz-6, observed translucent figures 10 meters high that accompanied the station for 10 minutes, and then disappeared.

Nikolai Rukavishnikov observed flares in the near-Earth outer space during a flight on board the Soyuz-10 spacecraft.

While resting, he was in a darkened compartment with his eyes closed. Suddenly he saw flashes, which at first he took for signals from a flashing light board, shining through his eyelids.

However, the display burned with an even light and its brightness was not sufficient to create the observed effect.

Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin recalled: "There was something there, close enough to us that we could see it."

"During the Apollo 11 mission on the way to the Moon, I noticed a light in the ship's window that seemed to be moving with us. There were several explanations for this phenomenon, another ship from another country, or it was panels that came off when we removed from the rocket's landing module. But it wasn't all that."

“I feel absolutely convinced that we came face to face with something incomprehensible. I could not classify what it was. Technically, the definition can only be “unidentified.”

James McDivitt made the first manned flight on Gemini 4 on June 3, 1965 and recorded: “I looked out the window and saw a white spherical object against the black sky. It abruptly changed the direction of flight.”

McDivitt also managed to photograph a long metal cylinder. The Air Force command again resorted to a tried and tested technique, announcing that the pilot had confused what he saw with the Pegasus 2 satellite.

McDivitt replied: "I would like to report that during my flight I did see what some people call a UFO, namely an unidentified flying object."

At the same time, many fellow astronauts also observed unidentified flying objects during flights.

They say that it is described in the archives of Roscosmos unusual story with the crew of the Soyuz-18 spacecraft, which happened in April 1975, was classified for 20 years. Due to a launch vehicle accident, the ship's cabin was shot off from the rocket at an altitude of 195 km and rushed towards the Earth.

The astronauts experienced enormous overloads, during which they heard a “mechanical, robot-like” voice that asked if they wanted to live. They didn’t have the strength to answer, then a voice said: We won’t let you die so that you can tell your people that you need to give up conquering space.

Having landed and climbed out of the capsule, the astronauts began to wait for rescuers. When night came, they lit a fire. Suddenly they heard a growing whistle and at the same time saw some luminous object in the sky, hovering right above them.

By the way, the ISS cameras record unknown space objects with enviable regularity.

Cosmonaut Alexander Serebrov expressed his opinion on this issue: “There, in the depths of the Universe, no one knows what is happening to people. The physical condition is studied at the very least, but changes in consciousness are a dark forest. Doctors pretend that a person can be prepared for anything on Earth . In fact, this is absolutely not true."

Vladimir Vorobyov, Doctor of Medical Sciences and senior researcher at the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences Center, states the following: “But visions and other inexplicable sensations in space orbit, as a rule, do not torment the astronaut, but give him a kind of pleasure, despite the fact that they cause fear. ..

It is worth considering that there is a hidden danger in this too. It is no secret that, after returning to Earth, most space explorers begin to experience a state of longing for these phenomena and at the same time experience an irresistible and sometimes painful craving to feel these states again.”

We are all used to stories about ghosts that begin to appear after some tragedy: a jilted bride who appears in her wedding dress, although she jumped out of a window 100 years earlier; or a murder victim who is trying to report her attacker 30 years after the crime was committed.

But what about events that affected hundreds, if not thousands of people, some of whom survived? About disasters that people around the world often witness? Here is a collection of paranormal phenomena that have been reported in connection with similar tragic incidents.

10. "Ghost Passengers" in Japan

The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred in 2011 and killed more than 16,000 people. For a number of years since the earthquake, taxi drivers in some of the hardest-hit cities, particularly Ishinomaki, have reported encountering “ghost passengers.” Yuka Kudo, a sociology student at Tohuko Gakuin University, interviewed more than 100 drivers as part of a study for her thesis. All drivers interviewed believed that they were putting a real person in the car. They turned on the counter, and some even noted the landing time in a log.

One of the drivers interviewed claimed that a few months after the accident, he put a young woman in his car who asked to be driven to the Minamihama area. The taxi driver explained to her that there was nothing left there. Then the passenger asked: “So I died?” When the driver turned to look at her, the woman disappeared.

9. "Ghost Passengers" in Thailand


“Ghost passengers” are not only appearing in Japan. Following the tsunami caused by the Indian Ocean earthquake on December 26, 2004, residents along the Andaman Sea coast in Thailand began to report that some of the 230,000 dead were among them.

Minibus driver Lek said that two weeks after the tragedy, seven foreign tourists climbed into his van and asked to take them to Kata Beach for 200 baht. But after some time on the road, Lek felt that his body was going numb, and when he looked back, he found himself alone in the car. But unlike the Japanese taxi drivers, who felt no fear, Lek states, “I can’t forget it. I'm going to change jobs. I have a daughter, and she can support me, but I’m so scared that I can’t even go out in the evening.”

Wandering ghosts also scare other local residents. A hotel security guard with many casualties left his post shortly after hearing the screams of a female guest who was presumed dead.

Another family living in Khao Lak said that their phone was constantly ringing, but when they picked up the phone, they heard the cries of their dead relatives begging for salvation.

8. Premonition of the sinking of the Titanic


There are many articles that the terrible fate of the Titanic was predicted in numerous fiction novels- at the same time, the coincidence of many details in the description of the ships and the details of their journey is indicated. But not many people know that the captain of the liner, Edward J. Smith, also seemed to have a presentiment that not everything would go smoothly during the first voyage across the Atlantic.

A collection of his letters, which was sold in 2016, lamented that he was no longer in command of the Cymric but had been appointed captain of the Titanic. More ominous is his letter to his sister, written just two days before the liner hit the iceberg. In the letter he writes: “I still don’t like this ship... I have a strange feeling.”

Captain Smith was a very experienced seaman who had previously served on the sister liner Olympic at the time of its collision with the cruiser Hawk, but at the time he had no special feelings for this particular vessel. Why was he so worried about the ship he had just set foot on board?

Whatever the reason for this, the captain continues to be admired to this day. Many legends have surrounded his name, including the story of Second Officer Leonard Bishop of the USS Winterhaven, who gave a tour of his ship to some of its passengers in 1977. One of the passengers was a quiet, attentive man who spoke with a British accent. Bishop sensed that there was something strange about the man, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was. A few years later he came across a portrait of a ship's captain and exclaimed, “I know this man. I gave him a tour of my ship." The man in the photograph was Captain Edward J. Smith.

7. Ghost of the Somme


By the end of the Battle of the Somme, which had lasted four and a half months, more than a million people had been killed or wounded. Most likely, you expect that we will now talk about the ghost of someone who fell in battle, but we will talk about someone whose foot never set foot on the battlefield.

On the morning of November 5, 1916, thirteen days before one of the bloodiest battles of the First World War ended, English soldiers of the 2nd Battalion Suffolk Regiment witnessed something inexplicable. As Captain W.E. wrote in August 1919. Newcombe in an issue of Pearson's Magazine, German troops had already begun firing into their trenches, but that was not what attracted everyone's attention. The captain described how he personally witnessed a "brilliant white light" that seemed to rise from a muddy strip between two trenches, called "no man's land." Further, according to his story, the cloud of light transformed into the figure of a man in an outdated military uniform.

The man was quickly identified as Lord Kitchener, whose face appeared on thousands of British army posters. The image pointed directly at the viewer and was accompanied by the caption: “Your country needs you.” Lord Kitchener died in June of that year, a month before the Battle of the Somme began.

The British ceased fire, but the figure did not disappear, it continued to walk parallel to the trenches in such a way as if the lord was inspecting his troops. Then he turned his face to German side, from which they also saw a ghost, and the Germans stopped firing, trying to understand what they were seeing. However, the British artillerymen, who were located at a distance from the trenches, noticing the light, decided that their help was needed and opened fire on German troops, who again began to storm the defensive lines. During this chaos, the figure returned to where it came from.

6. Baggage Finders


People living near O'Hare International Airport in Chicago have often reported strange visitors appearing in their homes. They knock on the door and explain that they need to “make contact” or “find their luggage,” but first, Before the homeowners can find out more, the man disappears.

On the highway nearby, motorists often notice strange lights and strange figures wandering along the road. If you spend any time on the airport grounds, you may feel a sudden drop in temperature, accompanied by screams from a nearby field.

These phenomena are associated with the disaster that occurred in May 1979. Then American Airlines DC-10 Flight 191 crashed shortly after takeoff due to the failure of one of its engines. The plane with full fuel tanks instantly turned into a fireball. All 271 people on board and two people on the ground were killed. Paranormal sightings continue to this day, and if you're brave enough, you can take advantage of a local ghost tour company. To do this, you need to spend the night in a camp near the airport.

5. Joplin's Butterfly People


There are many stories about Joplin's butterfly people, and they are all very similar. When a tornado unexpectedly struck the city on May 22, 2011, many children were outside with their parents or grandparents. They didn't have time to find shelter. When the tornado began lifting cars and collapsing buildings, the adults decided they were doomed to die. However, by some miracle the storm ended and they remained unharmed. After the tornado, some children began asking questions: “Did you see how cute they were?” "Who was pretty?" – the adults were surprised. “Haven’t you seen butterfly people?”

Soon the story of the butterfly people protecting people from tornadoes spread throughout the city. They were talked about on the streets and in church sermons. Children who received medical consultations regarding their injuries began to claim that they, too, saw these angelic beings and that it was they who saved and comforted them during the disaster. When a mural was unveiled in downtown Joplin to commemorate what the city experienced, the paintings featured large, colorful butterflies. Although the project's artistic director, Dave Lowenstein, is keen to emphasize that butterflies have many symbolic meanings, residents of the city associate the images with the supernatural experiences of the townspeople. “There are even butterflies on the fresco,” says one of the residents, “because everyone has heard about the butterfly people.”

4. Ghost in the Subway


When in mid-19th century, the first subway was built in London, some people expressed very serious fears that laying tunnels in the depths of the Earth would anger the devil. In addition, many lines and stations were built on ancient burial sites, such as Aldgate station. It is believed that 4,000 people died from the plague in this place.

In 2005, archaeological excavations uncovered 238 burials around Aldgate station believed to be the result of the plague. Many bodies were damaged during the construction of the subway. Happens a lot at Aldgate station unexplained phenomena that many cases are recorded in work logs.

The most famous story is about a station worker who slipped and fell on a contact rail, causing 20,000 volts to pass through his body. He somehow survived, but his colleagues report that the moment before he touched the rail, the ghost of an old woman appeared nearby, knelt down and stroked the worker's hair.

However, some episodes are associated with later tragedies. In 1943, residents of Bethnal Green in east London heard the sound of an airborne siren. As a result of the ensuing panic, when people tried to take refuge in the subway, 173 people, mostly women and children, were trampled to death. Even worse, the anxiety turned out to be educational. Since then, night workers have reported hearing women and children screaming. One worker was so frightened that he ran out of the station, trying to escape the ghostly sounds.

On November 18, 1987, a fire occurred at King's Cross station. The culprit of the fire was a passenger who, having lit a cigarette on the escalator, threw a burning match. The match ignited the oil-soaked wooden steps of the escalator, and after 15 minutes the flames reached the ticket hall and burst into it like a ball of fire. Thirty-one people died. Since then, many passengers have reported seeing a modern and elegantly dressed young woman with brown hair raising her arms and shouting. When someone approaches her to help, she disappears. Many speculate that this is one of the victims of the King Cross Station fire.

3. Nurse at the 9/11 disaster site


It is understandable that the scale of the September 11 terrorist attack led to many people reporting ghosts during and after the attack. Many survivors claim that they were saved by an invisible force. One such witness stated that she led him through a wall of fire and led him to the stairs in the North Tower. Another survivor who was trapped in concrete slabs describes being visited by a comforting ghost dressed as a monk.

There were also more unusual phenomena that were observed by more than one person. One such witness was NYPD officer Frank Marra, who helped clear the rubble after the attack. He reported seeing a woman dressed in a World War II Red Cross uniform carrying a tray of sandwiches. He states that he believed she was a first aid provider and that he saw her on more than one occasion. She was about 50 meters away, and he had no doubt that she was a living person. Fear gripped him later, by which time he had already retired from police service a year ago. Marra had long forgotten about the strange woman when one of the detectives asked him if he had heard stories about “the ghost of a Red Cross nurse who tried to distribute sandwiches and coffee to the victims.” It was then that Marra realized that he was not the only one who had noticed this mysterious figure. And since there were no people who would claim to know her, she remained a mystery.

2. Loft and Repo


On December 29, 1972, at approximately 11:42 a.m., Eastern Airlines Flight 401 crashed into national park Everglades in Florida. Shortly before the crash, the crew noticed that the landing gear indicator light had stopped working, but although they were concerned, no one noticed that the autopilot had turned off and the plane was slowly losing altitude. By the time they noticed it, it was already too late. 75 people survived, 101 died.

Among the dead were Captain Bob Loft and flight engineer Don Repo. It was these two people who soon began to appear on other Eastern Airlines planes, in particular on those that were equipped with spare parts taken from the wreckage of the crashed plane. Many of the appearances were witnessed by more than one witness, including the time the crew chief and two flight attendants not only saw but also spoke with the late Captain Loft before he disappeared. They were so shocked that they canceled the flight. Even the vice president of Eastern Airlines reported a conversation with a man whom he considered to be the crew commander and about whom he only later realized that it was the recently deceased Loft.

As for flight engineer Repo, it seems that his ghost is seriously concerned about the proper preparation of the planes for the flight. One flight engineer going through the pre-flight check stated that Repo appeared and said, "You don't need to worry about the pre-flight check, I've already done it." One of the flight attendants saw Repo fixing the microwave, another saw his face in the oven. When she called two colleagues, all three heard Repo say, “Watch the fire on that plane.” Interestingly, the plane later developed engine problems, and the last leg of the flight was cancelled. Another time, Repo appeared before the crew commander and told him: “There will never be any more crashes. We will not allow this to happen." This statement led some to believe that the ghostly appearances were an attempt to make amends.

1. Revived dead man


When Sorpong Pyu was seventeen years old, he witnessed his father Nam, a Cambodian government official, being bundled into a blue truck and driven away. This happened during the dark period between 1975 and 1979, during which the Khmer Rouge under Pol Pot killed an estimated 1.7 million people. To date, 309 mass graves with approximately 19,000 graves have been discovered. It is therefore understandable that when Nam did not return, Sorpong began to assume that his father was one of the victims.

Sorpong and his family were among the lucky ones. After spending time in a refugee camp in Thailand in 1982, Sorpong, his mother and six siblings moved to Canada. There Sorpong continued his distinguished academic career. In January 2010, while Sorpong was in Tokyo, he had a vivid dream in which he was walking and talking with his father. Although it was only a dream, Sorpong realized how much he still missed his father. Unknown to him, one of his brothers was planning to visit a psychic woman in Ottawa, wanting advice on his business. During the session, she asked her brother where his father was and whether he saw him. The brother replied that he saw his father taken away when he was five years old and that he was killed. But the psychic told him that this is not so, Nam is still alive.

Doubting the psychic's words, but still intrigued, Sorpong's brother informed the rest of the family about everything. This led their skeptical sister to approach the same woman without giving her name. The psychic told her the same thing: her father is alive. When her mother went to see her, she received the same answer. The result was two trips by one of Sorpong's brothers to Cambodia to see if he could find the man they believed had been killed nearly thirty years earlier. He distributed hundreds of photographs of Nam taken four decades ago. He visited Thai border towns and former refugee camp sites. He was eventually directed to a man who said the photo on the flyer looked like him when he was young, but he refused to believe that the Canadian could be one of his sons. His son also had doubts, but they gradually began to dissipate when Nam Pyu began to tell family stories that only the father could know. It seemed that father and son had found each other.

But how did Namu manage to escape? He was actually taken into a truck, and he was thrown into a ditch and covered with bodies on top. Somehow he survived, only to be beaten and tortured. He managed to escape into the jungle and cross the Thai-Cambodian border. We believed that his family was less fortunate and that they died. After that, he married and had six more children. But his first wife, Sorpong's mother, heard that her 85-year-old husband was alive and returned to Cambodia to be near him and his new family. Soon followed by one of their sons, the mother and son opened a seafood restaurant and now take care of everyone else. Finally, Sorpong himself returned to the country and was reunited with his father, whom he had not seen for 36 years.

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

12 photos of inexplicable things on planet Earth:

1. Obelisk, Egypt

They began to carve the obelisk right into the rock, but cracks appeared along it. It was left unfinished. The sizes are simply stunning!

2. Gate of the Sun, Bolivia

The Gate of the Sun is located in Tiwanaku, an ancient and mysterious city. Some scholars believe that in the first millennium AD it was the center of a huge empire. There is still no idea what the drawings on the gate mean. Perhaps they carried some astrological and astronomical value.

3. Underwater city, o. 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 sank under water about 10,000 years ago, that is, much earlier than the construction of the Egyptian pyramids. By modern ideas According to 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 aux Meadows site, Canada

This settlement was founded by the Vikings about 1000 years ago. Which means 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 aborigines. But during one of the expeditions, scientists came across a huge part of a bird’s paw, which was incredibly well preserved.

6. Longyu Grottoes, China

These grottoes were carved out of sandstone by humans - it was a complex task that definitely must have involved thousands of Chinese, but nowhere is there any mention of these grottoes and the hard work that went into 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 how perfectly the surface of each block is processed.

8. Stone Age Tunnels

The discovery of a vast network of underground tunnels (spanning across Europe from Scotland to Turkey) suggests that Stone Age people spent their days doing more than just hunting and gathering. But the real purpose of the tunnels still remains 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 conditions and wars.

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

For many decades now, archaeologists have been concerned about the mystery of the death of this city. In 1922, Indian archaeologist R. Banarji discovered ancient ruins on one of the islands of the Indus River. Even then, questions arose: how was this destroyed? big city, where did its inhabitants go? The excavations did not answer any of them.

10. Giant stone balls of Costa Rica

Mysterious perfectly round stone formations intrigue not only with their appearance, but also with their incomprehensible origin and purpose. They were first discovered in the 30s of the 20th century by workers clearing the jungle for banana plantations. Local legends said that there was supposed to be gold hidden inside the mysterious stone balls. But they were empty. It is unknown 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 Incas figurines

Golden figurines found in South America, outwardly resemble aircraft, and it's hard to believe. What served as the prototype for the creation of these figures is unknown.

12. Genetic drive

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

  Minimalism and graffiti in the interior of the room
• 
  The most strong armies in the world

Greetings, my reader. It is human nature to believe in miracles, which is probably why from time to time he observes incredible, mysterious natural phenomena throughout our land. The human psyche is structured in such a way that people are always interested in the mystical secrets of nature, trying to substantiate the very reason for the existence of phenomenal natural phenomena.

So, once again faced with a miraculous natural phenomenon that has a fantastic mystical nature, he cannot logically explain it, because here many fundamental laws of technical sciences do not apply.

Some of these mysteries of nature actually occur in reality in our lives, as they were recorded by scientists and received irrefutable evidence of their real existence, and some of them are still unsolved, since from a human point of view they are inexplicable.

Possessing incredible plausibility, these mysterious phenomena still surprise and delight many people with their unusualness. Humanity daily expands its circle of knowledge about the world around us, but when it encounters natural wonders that cannot be explained, it begins to plunge into the world of dubious speculation and unrealistic fantasies.

Perhaps the most mysterious and inexplicable natural phenomenon is the multi-colored and shaped flashes in the sky that appear just before an earthquake. There is a lot of evidence of this strange phenomenon on earth, so scientists began to observe it in the areas of the rupture earth's crust and put forward a modest theory to explain this phenomenon.

It is believed that during an earthquake the shock seismic wave sets tectonic rock plates in motion, and under the influence of large mechanical stresses in the form of friction and heat, radon gas comes to the surface, which can ignite.

In addition, the so-called piezoelectric effect occurs,

that is, the offset electric charges in rocks such as quartz, silicon and minerals that are charge carriers. Due to the high oxygen content in these rocks, electrical activity appears in them, in the form of current and ionization of air, which causes radiation in the form of an unusual glow in the sky.
A fireball in the form of ball lightning, which appears during a thunderstorm or storm, can also be called a mystery of nature. People who have observed this unusual phenomenon claim that the luminous fiery sphere floating in the air is generated by an ordinary lightning conductor, comes out unexpectedly from any object and can also suddenly disappear.

It can even pass through window glass and down through the chimney pipe.

Scientists have determined that ball lightning is an ionizing gas in the form of plasma, which, as a result of a chemical and biological reaction, is electrically neutral environment causes a faint glow. Physical theory The origin and course of this phenomenon is interpreted by scientists only as visual sensations arising from the influence of light on the human visual organs.
Another mystery of nature is unusual atmospheric phenomena in the form of luminous objects of foot faders moving quickly behind airplanes. These spherical objects, red-orange and white, appear suddenly and disappear suddenly.

They perform unimaginably complex maneuvers in the sky, as if someone were directing them, although they do not show hostility, but no one has ever managed to break away from the pilot or shoot him down. For a long time, military pilots considered them the secret weapon of their enemy.

Weather forecasters have long noticed tube-shaped clouds called morning glory. Their unusual appearance will be marked by a strange weather phenomenon. Climatologists say the kilometre-long morning glory clouds are caused by a unique combination of changing humidity and coastal breezes.

A rare meteorological phenomenon called Fata Morgana can also be called a mystery of nature, when sky horizon suddenly a city appears in the sky, in the form of a floating view of the city and its individual buildings, similar to living objects from holography.

The unusual picture of a three-dimensional photograph against the sky is in no way explainable, since distorted urban objects overlap each other and quickly change over time. It is almost impossible to explain this, since the images in the sky do not match the real objects on the ground.

Riddles nature of the animal world

The migration of monarch butterflies over vast distances, wintering in the mountain forests of Mexico, can also be considered an incomprehensible annual phenomenon. Scientists have suggested that winged insects are guided by the position of the Sun, which only shows them a general direction.
Circadian rhythms of cyclic fluctuations of day and night of varying intensity biological processes force insects to adapt with the help of their antennae, and the insects’ special navigation system attracts them with geomagnetic force.

An inexplicable fact is the sudden appearance of cicada insects, which, as if on cue, woke up in their underground habitats and came out en masse to the surface of the earth. For most of their lives, these are quiet, inconspicuous insects leading a solitary underground lifestyle.

These unusual insects are long-lived and mature at the age of seventeen, so they wake up en masse and come to the surface to procreate.
Their reproduction period lasts several weeks, after which they die, and the newly emerged young insect larvae begin to burrow into the ground, thus beginning a new life cycle of their existence.

Scientists have suggested that cicada insects protect themselves from their predatory enemies in this way.

Man considers such a rare and unusual phenomenon as falling rain from various animals that cannot fly to be an inexplicable mystery of nature.

1. fish and salamanders,
2. frogs and toads,
3. spiders and snakes,
4. dogs and cats,

all these organic beings fall out in mass quantities in various parts of the world.

Scientists suggest that funnel-shaped atmospheric vortices in the form of destructive tornadoes and waterspouts suck in and then carry various inhabitants of the animal world over long distances, where they drop them on the surface of the earth in the form of living rain.

Riddles nature on earth

On the coastal plains of Peru, as if out of nowhere, not entirely explainable, encrypted hieroglyphs appeared in the form of drawings, having geometric shapes mysterious animals and plants that are quite clearly visible from a great height. These works of art are believed to have been created by the ancient Nazca people, who lived here 500 BC.

These Nazca Lines even received World Heritage status, as they attracted the interest of many people. Archaeologists and researchers from many countries have tried to decipher these geometric shaped patterns. At first it was believed that they were part of some ancient calendar, but these erroneous assumptions were not confirmed.
Soon another assumption was put forward that these Nazca geoglyphs are an encrypted message from aliens, but this scientific theory was questioned, so a center was created in Japan to study more than 1,000 such drawings around the world.

Under the influence of a mysterious mysterious force in Death Valley, moving heavy stones appeared in California. Over the course of 7 years, stones weighing 25-30 kilograms moved over a distance of 200 meters on the dried surface of the lake.

Analysis of the traces and the path of these stones showed that these heavy objects were moving at a rate of a meter per second, although the process of movement itself could not be seen, so dubious assumptions arose about their spontaneous movement.
The main culprit in their unusual movement was considered to be such natural phenomena as:

• strong wind and slippery ice,
• wet algae and seismic vibrations.

Some people around the world claim to hear an often annoying low-frequency noise, the so-called Taos Earth hum. Unfortunately for scientific researchers of this anomalous phenomenon, it is heard by a fairly rare number of people, so they attributed it to tinnitus and industrial noise, as well as the impact of waves and the singing sands of dunes.

In Central America, while clearing land for banana plantations, giant stone balls with a perfect two-meter sphere were discovered.

These ancient giants - stone balls - were dated to be 1000 years old. Why they were created and by whom remains a mystery to this day, since spanish conquerors destroyed all traces of the ancient heritage of the indigenous people. Their true purpose is also unclear.
Often, archaeological scientists encounter long-dead creatures in their cult excavations, which are discovered in completely unexpected places where they do not belong. These fossilized remains in the form of prints and traces of unusual people provide new information about the theory of human evolution, about his origin and appearance on our earth.

An example of such a mysterious find was the found fragment ancient man, whose brain was disproportionately large, and the huge head of a man with jaws similar to the jaws of a monkey indicated that scientists had discovered a transitional missing link human development.

The diversity of nature offers thinking humanity such a strange phenomenon as will-o’-the-wisps, which are also called demonic lights, which are observed at night, mainly in fetid swamps and city cemeteries. These demonic lights can be seen at a low altitude, the distance of a person’s arm’s length, their shape and appearance resembles a spherical candle flame.

The deceased's candle looks like a living, bright flame that does not emit smoke; the color of the flame can be different -

1. white,
2. blue,
3. green.

For a long time it was considered an ancient belief that these lights are the souls of dead people. However, a scientific hypothesis claims that this is just a rare bioluminescence, that is, the ability of dead plant and animal organisms to glow as a result of slow decay, and the phosphorus hydrogen gas coming to the surface ignites spontaneously.

Living representatives of such biological luminescence in nature are bacteria, fungi and animals, ranging from protozoa to chordates. Luminous forms are numerous among marine organisms -

1. annelids and planktonic shrimps,
2. protozoa and coelenterates,
3. fish and crustaceans,

and among terrestrial animals insects -

1. fireflies and click beetles,
2. larvae of cave and fungus mosquitoes,
3. earthworms and centipedes.

The mystery of the universe can be called St. Elmo's lights, appearing on pointed peaks tall towers and masts, as well as sharp rock tops and single trees. These discharges of bright lights have the form of luminous tassels, and arise as a result of some tension electric field in the air atmosphere. Their appearance to sailors during dangerous voyages gave hope for salvation and success.

Mysterious phenomena in the ocean

Often in the depths of the ocean, a mysterious underwater phenomenon occurs, nicknamed Quaker by sailors, by analogy reminiscent of the croaking of frogs. These unknown low-frequency sound vibrations have been repeatedly recorded by marine location systems. The source of these strange sounds For a long time, people considered unexplored species of marine animals.

Researchers of this phenomenon assumed that they were certain species of cetaceans, or a giant squid that hunts large mammals in aquatic environment, whose observation was difficult due to his boneless physique.
For several centuries now, it has been living in the minds of many people. mysterious story about the meeting of sailors with the Flying Dutchman, who was in distress in the stormy waters of the ocean. Some of these facts are even documented. So the crew of one schooner managed to meet such a ghost ship, their amazement and horror knew no bounds.

The fact is that the sailors did not understand where all the people with their belongings and the ship’s log suddenly disappeared from the ship. Despite all this, they left the food they had just prepared untouched. An explanation for this fact has not yet been found.

A rare case is the discovery of Japan's Atlantis, this underwater lost city that was once ruled by the mighty Poseidon. Near the coast of Japan, under the very thickness of the water, experienced scuba divers found large stone buildings in the form of natural terraces.

The peculiarities of the formation of this mysterious city, which sank under the water due to earthquakes, are the fairly accurate rectangular walls of the dwellings, built 5,000 years ago.

There are many amazing and mysterious things happening in the natural world. There are people with unusual superpowers -

• some can see the future, others can move through walls,
• some see strange shadows and hear their steps, others travel in parallel worlds.

Apparently, in order to understand inexplicable and unknown events, one must believe in them, and then it will turn out that miracles not only exist, but they are also real.

Scientists around the world are still trying to unravel mysterious artifacts of the natural world, which still baffle many of them because they do not fit into existing theories and ideas.

These natural paranormal phenomena are often beyond our control the best minds humanity, to guess and find out their nature of appearance and origin is the immediate task of all humanity.

Some people encounter miracles all the time, for others these are fairy tales, however, paranormal things happen in our lives, and this is the same reality as, say, rain or snow, which seem so ordinary to us. (website)

Alien artifacts

On the evening of January 29, 1986, a strange event occurred near the Far Eastern town of Dalnegorsk. A large luminous “meteorite” crashed into the hill at great speed. The top of this hill is visible here from all corners of the city, so almost everything local residents witnessed something mysterious. Later, lights resembling welding began to burn on the hill. January did not allow us to immediately get closer to the glow, which lasted, as local residents say, about an hour. Only three days later, researchers managed to climb to the top and see strange fragments that had clearly melted under the influence of high temperatures. Surprisingly, at the same time, at a distance of several centimeters from the fallen celestial body, the bushes and trees remained intact and unharmed.

The collision with the rock left many interesting artifacts, chemical composition which turned out to be extremely rare, if not completely atypical for the Earth. For example, balls and structures were found that resembled a mesh in their structure. Many of them had high temperature melting, although they seemed plastic. Scientists have suggested that such chemical compounds It is almost impossible to obtain in the natural conditions of our planet. Then - what is this?..

Annabelle doll

These events formed the basis of the American horror film Annabelle. In 1970, an American student celebrated her birthday. Mom gave her a large antique doll, which she purchased at an antique store. A few days later they started. Every morning the girl carefully laid the doll on the bed in the apartment she rented with a friend. The toy's arms were at its sides, and its legs were stretched out. But by evening the doll took a completely different pose. For example, the legs were crossed and the hands were on the knees. The doll could also be seen in unexpected places in the home.

The girls came to the logical conclusion that during their absence, a stranger with a strange sense of humor visits the apartment. It was decided to conduct an experiment and seal the windows and door in such a way that the attacker would leave traces after the visit. Not a single trap worked, and strange things continued to happen to the doll. Moreover, bloody stains began to appear on the doll. Naturally, the police, who were involved a little later in this strange case, could not help the girls in any way. I had to turn to a medium. He said that once upon a time, a seven-year-old girl died on the site of this dwelling, whose spirit was playing with this doll, thereby giving some signs, for example, requests for help. But then something terrible began to happen to the doll.

One day, an acquaintance of theirs was visiting the girls. Suddenly a noise was heard from the next empty room. When the guys looked behind the door, there was no one in it, and a doll was lying on the floor. Suddenly the guy screamed and grabbed his chest. Blood stains appeared on his shirt. The chest was all scratched up. The girls left the apartment that same day and turned to the famous Warren esotericists, who were engaged in research. It turned out that Annabelle is not just a doll, but some evil entity that took advantage of the girls’ trust. The Warrens performed a cleansing ceremony, after which creepy things no longer appeared in the apartment. The girls happily gave the doll itself to their saviors for eternal storage.

Rubber blocks

Over the past thirty years, they have been regularly discovered on the shores of Europe. These are rectangular rubber blocks with rounded edges and the inscription “TJIPETIR”. It turned out that this word was the name of an Indonesian rubber plantation that existed at the beginning of the last century. But how can we explain the appearance of these products on the other side of the planet? Experts suggest that the plates are washed out from a sunken merchant ship.

But in this case, very mysterious oddities can be traced. Firstly, the plates appear in England, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, France, which indicates a huge number of blocks at the time of the shipwreck. Such an impressive consignment of cargo should be reflected in some archival documents, but none were found. Secondly, the rubber was made 100 years ago, but, to the surprise of researchers of this phenomenon, it was very well preserved. Are these plates really from?..
