The Bermuda Triangle is a geographical area in the shape of an equilateral triangle, located in the Atlantic Ocean, between the Bermuda Islands, Puerto Rico and the American city of Miami (in the state of Florida). By joining these three points with an imaginary line, a triangle of about 1600 to 1800 km on each side is formed, and an area of approximately 1.1 million km².

The term was created in 1953, by several writers who published articles in magazines about the presumed dangerousness of the area.

The first documented mention of the Bermuda Triangle was made in 1950: Edward Van Winkle Jones - an Associated Press journalist - wrote about some lost ships in the area of the Bahamas.2 3 Jones said that the disappearances of ships, planes and small boats were "mysterious." And he gave this area the nickname "Devil's Triangle".

The Bermuda Triangle has received the credit for many disappearances that occurred far from its "official" limits. To date, some 50 ships and 20 aircraft have been lost in that particular area of the Atlantic Ocean. Although most of these disappearances can be explained, others can not be, and the issue continues to be a debate between believers and skeptics.

An explanation of some of the disappearances points to the presence of vast methane hydrate deposits beneath the continental plates. In 1981, the United States Geological Survey reported the appearance of these hydrates in the Blake Ridge area, in the Southeastern United States Coast.

Probably one of the greatest mysteries of life is that of the innumerable cases of disappearances of ships, planes and people in the famously feared Triangle of Bermuda.

Now, thanks to satellite shots provided by NASA, a new theory has been proposed by meteorologists who claim that the reason for the mysteries that permeate the area of the Bermuda Triangle, are unusual hexagonal clouds that create air bombs that hit a speed of up to 270 km / h, which is believed to be responsible for all the catastrophes that have occurred in the place.
