|Two of the so-called Bermuda Triangle's most mysterious disappearances in the late 1940s may have been solved. | |
|Scores of ships and planes are said to have vanished without trace over the decades in a vast triangular area of ocean | |
|with imaginary points in Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico. | |
|But journalist Tom Mangold's new examination for the BBC provides plausible explanations for the disappearance of two | |
|British commercial planes in the area, with the loss of 51 passengers and crew. | |
|One plane probably suffered from catastrophic technical failure as a result of poor design, while the other is likely to | |
|have run out of fuel. | |
|Sixty years ago, commercial flights from London to Bermuda were new and perilous. It would require a refuelling stop on |

    Many ships and planes were lost in triangle leaving behind unknown explanation but flight 19 is the most famous incident. It was already 4 month that world war II had over. Still it was the mission for the thirteen men to fly due east which was 56 miles to hens and chicken shoals to conduct practice-bombing runs. After that objective had been completed, the flight plan called for them to fly an additional sixty-seven miles east, and then turn north for seventy-three miles and finally straight back to base. This course would take them on a triangular path over the sea. About an hour and a half Lt. Taylor reported that his compass is broken and its not working. Planes today have a number of ways that they can check their current position, including listening to a set of GPS (Global Positioning Satellites) in orbit around the Earth. He was a good pilot, but he hadn't spent a lot of time flying east toward the Bahamas, which was where he was going on that day. Apparently Taylor had become confused at some point in the flight. For some reason Taylor thought the flight had started out in the wrong direction and had headed south toward the Keys, instead of east. By 4:45 P.M. Inside the control room it was obvious to the people that Taylor was hopelessly lost. He was told to turn control of the flight over to one of his students, but apparently he didn't. After a time, connection was disappeared from the people in the…

    The official report by the U.S. government reads that Earhart and Noonan ran out of fuel, crashed into the water, and sank (“What Happened to Amelia Earhart?”). One of the most common hypotheses made about Earhart and Noonan’s death is that they landed on Nikumaroro (“What Happened to Amelia Earhart?”). For a while this island was left uninvestigated because at the time it was “uninhabited” (“What Happened to Amelia Earhart?”). Evidence later found by the TIGHAR, or International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, contradicts this idea with The Earhart Project (“What Happened to Amelia Earhart?”). TIGHAR found improvised tools, remnants of shoes, traces of a campfire, and aircraft wreckage that looked much like Earhart’s plane (“What Happened to Amelia Earhart?”).…

    UFOs have been a controversial mystery with endless question marks. Were those sightings real? What were they then? Do they belong to aliens who visited planet Earth? When the authorities are not able to make satisfying responses or avoid explanations, the root of cause of government UFO cover-up conspiracy grows. These conspiracy theories would be still as strong as long UFOs are unelucidated . That means, once the unexplainable matters become explainable, theories become unstable and more likely to tumble. Explainable UFO sightings and the activities within government restricted area, as well as conspiracy theorists’…
