   The place enclosed by a triangle is formed by three islands in the north Atlantic - Puerto Rico, Bermuda, and Miami in the USA. In the last centuries, especially the latest one, reports are of aircrafts and ships going missing have been shocking people and causing much unrest.

The Cases
- The earliest reports of the Bermuda triangle is as based on Columbus's observation of a massive fireball in the sky.
- Pilot Bruce Gernon experienced what seemed an ‘electronic fog’ and lost 28 minutes after coming out of the area.
- Five US planes were lost in the location after 90 minutes of departure.
- A cargo ship the ‘USS Cyclops’ carrying 309 people destined to land on Baltimore, never reached its destination and no reports of wreckage were to be found.
- The ‘Witch craft’ was a luxury boat which hit an unusual object along the Miami coastline. The captain signaled the coastguard who when arrived, there were no traces of the boat.

The Theories
- Theories vary from pure myth to highly scientific. (Pick your favourite!) But first, consider these points-
i) No debris was found after any of the accidents.
ii) Compasses stop working and point to axial north instead of magnetic north.
iii) Even aircrafts have been found missing so choose one which satisfies both for boats and planes.
So here we go-
- Passing through the triangle is the Gulf Stream Ocean current which can easily displace watercrafts on the surface. However this does not explain the disappearance of aircrafts and many other similar currents also exist in other parts of the world.
- Close to the triangle is also the Sargasso Sea which is bounded only by currents. In some cases, unmanned ships are found. The area under the influence of the triangle is much prone to hurricanes and abnormal weather.
- Remember Plato's coordinates for the lost city of Atlantis? (Issue 2) Well, the area is well under Bermuda triangle. An evidence to this is the rock formation remains near the Bahamas, much like walls and roads.
- Sea monsters.
- Aliens and UFO's are sometimes also said to have been lurking there. We can provide some evidence to this fact as we saw Columbus's description of the fireball in the sky. - Proposed by Dr. Ben Clennell of Leads University U.K, the methane gas theory says that high amounts of methane is released because of underwater land displacement. Due to the methane, water loses much of its density resulting in sinking of ships. Airplanes also catch fire since the gas is highly flammable.
- Electronic fog as per some observations, was also observed, also called as Hutchison effect. An electromagnetic field is generated when current is passed through metallic wires i.e. when electromagnetic waves interact with each other. Magnetic fields generated by high voltage sources are high enough to levitate objects and form whirlpools.
