Ghost stories are scary because they relate to something we don't know. History is interesting because it tells about real events that actually took place. A fascinating middle ground between these two extremes are natural phenomena that we still fail to understand.
While we constantly continue to study the structure of this world, we often encounter natural "miracles" that go beyond our understanding and force us to enter the realm of fantasy and assumptions. From jelly falling from the sky to inexplicable explosions that destroy hundreds of miles of forest and blood red apocalyptic skies, here are 10 strange natural phenomena.
10 Star Jelly
Rain, snow, sleet, hail. No, these are not the proverbial four elements, but theoretically, these are all that can fall from heaven at any given time. Oddly enough, while we can measure and track precipitation fairly accurately, there is something else that can fall from the sky that we have no idea about: star jelly.
Star jelly is a translucent gelatinous material often found on grass or trees that is known for quickly disappearing once discovered. Many have reported seeing such a substance fall from the sky. This has led to myths that the falling material is nothing but parts of dead stars, alien excrement, or even government drones. References to the strange substance date back as far as the 14th century, when doctors used star jelly to treat abscesses.
Of course, our scientists had to investigate this strange phenomenon and determine its origin, right? In theory, yes. Some believe that the strange substance is frog eggs swollen from exposure to water. The problem is that the study did not confirm the presence of animal or plant DNA in this substance, which makes it even more mysterious.
9. Clouds of morning glory

Like pillows, the clouds are not at all soft and fluffy. They are made of water vapor and will not be as soft as pillows if dropped on them. Since clouds contain water, we can understand their shapes and movements and use this data to predict the weather - at least in most cases.
Morning glory clouds are long, tube-shaped clouds that look rather ominous in the sky. Reaching over 965 km in length, these are most commonly seen in Australia during the dry to wet season transition. Local natives say that the clouds appear to warn of an increase in the bird population.
Apart from these Aboriginal myths, there is no serious explanation for why morning glory clouds have this shape. Some climatologists claim that they form as a result of a combination of sea breezes and changes in humidity, but so far, no computer models have been able to predict this strange natural phenomenon.
8. Cities in the sky
No, this is not some comic book fiction or something from an ancient religion. This is reality. On April 21, 2017 in Jieyang, China, many citizens were amazed at the sight of the city floating in the clouds. Many rushed to post photos on the Internet, which scared the rest, but there was no reason for this, since something like this had happened before.
The same floating cities were observed in five different places in China during the 6 years preceding this event. A large number of such phenomena has led to various hypotheses: aliens are trying to break through to us from another dimension, there will be a second coming of Christ soon, or the emerging images are a holographic test of the Chinese or even the American government.
But we need, first of all, the facts. There is a possible explanation: this is a rare natural phenomenon known as Fata Morgana, where light passing through heat waves causes a duplication effect. This explanation could well be accepted if the images in the sky did not differ from what is below them, below the horizon.
7. Star Tabby

Our universe is huge, and there are billions of galaxies in it, which may one day be discovered by our descendants. But in order to discover mystical wonders, we do not need to leave our Milky Way.
If you type: Tabby's Star, you get this information: KIC 8462852, named "Tubby's Star" after Tabet Boyajian, who discovered it, is one of more than 150,000 stars observed by the Kepler space telescope. Absolutely unique about this star is the way it changes its glow.
Usually, stars are observed by the dips that appear in their glow when the planets pass in front of them. Tabby's star is surprising because dips in its brightness amount to up to 20% of the total volume at a time, which is much larger than other stars we have observed.
Explanations for such strange light activity vary widely, from large clusters of planets passing in front of a star (which is unlikely) to large accumulations of dust and debris (but not for Tabby-age stars) and alien activity (which is very interesting).
One of the main theories is that the aliens are using some kind of huge machines that revolve around the star to extract energy. Although it may sound strange, it is much more interesting than space dust.
6. Downpour of ... spiders

One of the many laws of the universe says that each of us is either a dog person or a cat person. These two variants of personality are characteristic of all mankind. Even though many of us love animals, that love is not strong enough to dream of animals falling from the sky. If you love animals that much, you may need to seek professional help. But before you do, we have good news.
Although this is not a frequent natural phenomenon, animals falling from the sky are a reality. Specifically, not cats and dogs, but many other animals fell from the sky along with raindrops. Some examples include frogs, tadpoles, fish, eels, snakes, and worms (any of these scenarios are unpleasant).
The existing theory explains this phenomenon by the fact that the animals were lifted into the sky by a water tornado or a tornado that arose in their natural habitat. Unfortunately, this fact has never been registered and confirmed by scientists. Even if this theory is true, it cannot explain the fact that in 1876, raw meat fell from a clear Kentucky sky. This does not fit into the official theory at all.
5. Blood red sky

Answer quickly the question: what are the main signs of the approaching apocalypse? You may have guessed: it is war, famine and epidemics. You may have mentioned the name of your favorite politician in this list. All of these answers are accepted, but here's another one: the sky turns blood red for a few seconds and then quickly returns to its normal state.
This phenomenon was observed in April 2016 by residents of Chalchuapa, El Salvador. The sky reportedly turned crimson within a minute and then returned to normal with a slight pinkish tinge. Many in the Christian population believe that the red flash is a sign of the coming apocalypse described in the Book of Revelation in the Bible.
Some of the possible explanations for this phenomenon are that the light coming from the meteor showers, which are not uncommon in this area in April, are to blame. However, this is unlikely as the blood-red sky is a phenomenon that has never been seen before.
According to another theory, the reason was the reflection of fires that engulfed several sugarcane farms in the area by clouds. Whatever the explanation, we recommend that you take a Bible, or go to a bar, depending on what you believe.
4. Great attractor

The generally accepted model for the origin of the universe is the Big Bang Theory: a powerful explosion that happened 14 billion years ago caused matter to expand outward at high speed, which led to the constant expansion of the universe. Although it is generally accepted, but this theory is one of many regarding the origin of our universe. However, it does not explain some anomalies such as the Great Attractor.
In the 1970s, they first began to study a strange force located 150-200 million light-years away, which pulls the Milky Way and other neighboring galaxies to itself. Due to the location of the stars in the Milky Way, we cannot see what this object looks like, which is why it has been dubbed the "Great Attractor".
In 2016, an international team of scientists was finally able to finally view the Milky Way using the Parkers Telescope (Parkes CSIRO) and discovered 883 galaxies concentrated in this area. While some believe that this will solve the mystery of the Great Attractor, others believe that the galaxies were pulled here in the same way that our galaxy is now pulling, and the true reason for this attraction remains unknown.
3. Taos rumble

Each of us has heard ringing in the ears, and the “grandmother's tale” associated with it, that it appears when someone speaks badly of you. Most of all, it is outrageous that no one but you hears this. Therefore, when we hear tinnitus for the first time, you might think that we are going crazy. But what if other people heard the same thing?
The city of Taos in north-central New Mexico is known for its liberal arts community as well as several celebrities who have lived there. However, it is perhaps better known for the "Taos rumble", which is heard by about 2% of the population, and which everyone describes in their own way.
It was first reported in the 1990s, and hum began to be investigated at the University of New Mexico. While most people claimed to have heard the hum, none of the machines picked it up. Explanations for this phenomenon come down to factors such as: aliens, government experiments, the norm. Until we find the only correct explanation for this hum, our personal explanation will be no worse than anyone else's.
2. Tunguska explosion

During the Cold War, we all feared the destruction that nuclear weapons bring. We knew about the power of the nuclear bomb not only from ongoing tests, but also from real life, since it was used in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. At that time, people were waiting for fire to fall from the sky and the earth to open up. But in 1908, people could not have expected this.
On June 30, 1908, in the region of the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in Siberia, a massive fiery one crashed into the ground before exploding at a level of 6 km above the ground. The hot shock wave killed many animals, and trees were knocked down over a stretch of tens of kilometers. Visitors to the Vanavara market, 64 km from the center of the explosion, were knocked down by its force.
Most scientists believe that the fireball was a meteorite or asteroid that exploded due to the pressure of the atmosphere, its composition, and a number of other factors before it made contact with the earth. The biggest mystery is that the crater was never found, so it is impossible to analyze the meteorite material. It is possible that the object was completely made of ice, and therefore left no fragments. However, this cannot be proven.
1. Japanese Atlantis
Photo: atlasobscura.com
It is strange when we discover circumstances that confirm that the riddle has been solved. Atlantis is a mythical underwater city ruled by Poseidon, or Aquaman from the comics, depending on who you ask. Since the legend originated in Greece, many believe that the real prototype is somewhere in the Mediterranean. Or maybe off the coast of Japan.
Large rock formations are underwater near the island of Yonaguni (Yonaguni Jima). Outwardly, they resemble the Egyptian or Aztec pyramids and have been under water for about 2000 years. Discovered in 1986 by a local diver, the formations were first thought to have formed naturally, although this is odd given the 90° angles.
Unlike the other mysteries on our list, this one has a perfectly reasonable explanation. We hope this will help you sleep much more peacefully tonight.
The process of development of modern science and its achievements make people believe more and more that science is able to explain everything on our planet and in the Universe. Many phenomena of our world have a scientific explanation, however, not all occurring phenomena can be explained by modern scientific theories.
For example, science does not yet give a definite answer to the question about the process of formation of the Universe. Science also fails to explain how religious beliefs are formed. If we take a jump into the world of the supernatural, we will see unusual phenomena that cannot be explained by modern science, since scientific methods are not suitable for measuring or studying such phenomena. Let's take a closer look at some hitherto inexplicable phenomena, and be aware that nature itself is a miracle, and that much remains a mystery.
1. Placebo effect
The placebo effect remains a medical mystery, confirming the role of consciousness in physical health and healing. It was found that patients who were confident in receiving the medicine could recover even if they received only a sugar pill. To study this phenomenon, experiments called "double-blind" (neither the patient nor the researcher knew about the real nature of the treatment) were carried out so that the expectations of doctors and patients could not influence the results.
Unfortunately, for many years the effectiveness and potency of the placebo effect has been considered unreliable by science. Perhaps this is due to the limitations of scientific methods. However, there are many cases of self-healing, which sometimes even surpass the effect of existing medical remedies for healing the physical body.
2. Sixth sense
Such five senses as sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell help a person to navigate well in the surrounding physical world. There is, however, a sixth sense, an inner power of perception known as intuition. The word "intuition" comes from the Latin word "intueri", which means "view from within". Intuition is the ability to know and understand without using logical reasoning or analysis, it is common to all people and depends on their power of perception.
Popularly speaking, intuition is something felt as "pre-knowledge" or "pre-feeling" of something one did not know before. According to a study published in GEO PRWeek/Burson-Marsteller in 2006, 62% of executives will make decisions in their business based on their intuition rather than non-thinking.
A 2007 study published in the journal Current Biology also found that participants in an experience should rely on their intuition when they need to give a quick answer. They are much more accurate at finding the same characters from similar 650 characters after two and a half seconds of looking at them.
The Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu said, "The power of intuitive understanding will protect you from evil for the rest of your life." Albert Einstein also said that "the most precious thing is intuition."
Where is the source of intuition, where does it come from? A study of the human brain has shown that the pineal gland is a possible answer to this riddle. René Descartes (1596-1650), the father of modern philosophy, called the pineal gland "the seat of consciousness." The ancient sages of the East also believed that intuition comes from the region of the pineal gland, and believed that it can manifest itself in the form of knowledge and ideas, enlightenment and the soul.
3. Experience near death
There are many reports of strange and varied experiences experienced by near-death survivors. For example, going through a brightly lit tunnel, meeting loved ones who have already passed away, and feeling calm and serene.
In 1976, the most famous case of "clinical death" of Dr. George Rodanay was noted, he is considered the most incredible. This experience transformed Dr. Rodonay from an atheist to an Eastern Orthodox priest. This case gives us the key to discovering the existence of another world beyond the human physical world.
Although many people have gone through similar experiences, science has been unable to explain the phenomenon of near-death experiences. Some scientists are trying to suggest that the experience of being on the verge of death can be explained by the result of hallucinations when the brain is damaged. But brain damage is not the only reason, there is no specific scientific theory to explain why these people can experience these sensations or explain these life changes.
4.Unidentified flying objects (UFOs)
The name unidentified flying object was coined in 1952 by the US Air Force to identify objects that could not be identified by experts after discovery. In popular literature, the word UFO usually refers to a spacecraft controlled by aliens.
The first UFOs were seen and recorded in China during the Song Dynasty. In the tenth century, the scholar and warlord Shen Kuo (1031-1095) wrote in his book Records of Talks in Menxi in 1088 about a pearl-shaped flying object that moved at incredible speed, emitting a blinding light.
Kenneth Arnold, an American businessman, reported that in 1947 he saw nine brightly luminous objects near the Cascade Mountains. Arnold described the saucer-shaped object as a "frying pan". His story was extremely interested in the media and aroused great interest of the general public.
Since then, the number of UFOs has increased exponentially. The UFO phenomenon has been studied by both government and independent researchers around the world.
Dr. Josef Hynek (1910-1986) studied UFOs while working for the US Air Force. Hynek was initially extremely critical, but after studying hundreds of UFO reports over the past thirty years, his point of view has changed.
In the last years of his career, Hynek publicly expressed his disappointment that the vast majority of scientists consider the UFO phenomenon inexplicable, unwilling to admit it and showing inflexibility of mind.
5. Deja vu
The phenomenon of "déjà vu" [from fr. - already seen] this feeling of something strangely familiar, something that has already happened in a certain place or an event that has already been experienced. People may feel very strange when faced with this, as if it has already happened, but they realize that they are facing this situation for the first time. Research in the field of neurophysiology is trying to explain such experiences as a memory anomaly, a brain disease, or a side effect of certain drugs.
In 2008, psychologist Ann Clary (see http://cdp.sagepub.com/content/17/5/353.full) explored the feeling of déjà vu in terms of "recognition memory". Alternative explanations combine the phenomenon of deja vu with the ability to prophesy, to remember past lives, to clairvoyance, or as a harbinger of the end of predestination. Whatever the explanation, déjà vu is certainly a universal phenomenon in the human world, whose underlying cause is still a mystery.
Today, places like Whaley's cursed Villa in San Diego have become a tourist attraction, and ghost stories are no longer uncommon.
Popular culture is full of films about ghosts, and mainstream science is retracted from clear explanations of these phenomena. Only researchers outside the scientific community make efforts to determine the significance of such life experiences.
The existence of ghosts is deeply rooted in the notion of having other spaces outside of our physical world and the survival of the soul after death. Researchers of this phenomenon harbor the hope that one day this mystery will be revealed.
7. Unexplained disappearances
There are many strange cases when people disappeared without a trace.
For example, in 1937, pilot Amelia Earhart and navigator Frederick Noonan disappeared along with their Lockheed aircraft. They approached Howland Island in the Pacific Ocean, where the Coast Guard ship Itasca received word that they had run out of fuel. But, due to communication being difficult, the Itasca was unable to determine Lockheed's location.
Soon Earhart and Noonan sent word that they had half an hour of fuel left and no land in sight. Then the connection was lost. They were unable to splash down, and after many years of searching, their traces in the ocean were not found.
In such cases, despite the considerable efforts of various organizations and the use of the best modern scientific methods, it is impossible to find concrete answers about what happened to these mysteriously disappeared people.
8 Bermuda Triangle
The Bermuda Triangle, the space in the Atlantic Ocean between Bermuda, Miami and San Juan in Puerto Rico where ships and planes keep disappearing, is one of the biggest mysteries on a global scale.
Survivors point to the lag of navigational instruments, changes in their functioning, talk of luminous balls in the sky, sudden and unreasonable changes in the weather and the inexplicable appearance of a wall of fog. Frank Flynn in 1956 described it as an "unknown mass" that stalled engine power as his ship entered it.
On December 4, 1970, Bruce Gernon Jr. met with a special kind of fog that surrounded his plane and turned into something supernatural. For years, scientists have tried to debunk the myth of the Bermuda Triangle. But those who directly experienced these strange experiences testify and strongly insist that there are things that happened at sea and in the sky over the Bermuda Triangle that are beyond the limits of logical understanding.
9. Bigfoot or Yeti
Bigfoot is one of the most legendary creatures studied by cryptozoologists. Bigfoot or Bigfoot, as it is called on the Pacific coast of North America, is also known as Yeti in the Himalaya region of Nepal and Tibet or Yovi in Australia.
In 1951, mountaineer Eric Shipton photographed a giant footprint in the Himalayas. The photo that surprised the world made the Bigfoot story popular. In 1967, footage taken by Roger Patterson and Robert Gimlin that they claimed was Bigfoot was the subject of numerous attempts to debunk it on the one hand and confirm it on the other.
Anthropologist Grover Krantz studied Patterson and Gimlin's film and concluded that the images are genuine and belong to a very large, unknown bipedal creature. Due to the lack of physical evidence of Bigfoot, mainstream science does not recognize evidence of his existence. However, the myth is supported by various reports of sightings around the world.
10. Hum
The persistent low frequency hum phenomenon has been reported in many places around the world, especially in the US, UK and Northern Europe. The sound that only certain people hear is known as "Hum", which refers to the names of the places where it is heard: Hum Taos (New Mexico, USA), Hum Kokomo (Indiana, USA), Hum Bristol (England) and Hum Large (Scotland).
Those who can perceive this sound often describe it as the hum of a diesel engine idling in the distance. It brings some people into a state of extreme excitement, which negatively affects health.
Government agencies around the world have studied the sources of this noise. In the US, the first studies began in the 1960s. In 2003, the UK Department of Food, Environment and Rural Affairs published a report analyzing low frequency hum and its impact on victims. However, results from studies of noise source locations are very inconclusive and the phenomenon remains a mystery.
English version
A lot of strange, mysterious and inexplicable things are happening in the vast expanses of Russia, but there is nothing to worry about. On 1/6 of the earth's land there is enough room for everyone: aliens, ghosts, prehistoric animals, psychics and supernatural monsters, unlike anything else in the world))
1. Meeting of astronauts with UFOs. It was not easy for the pioneers of space exploration: the technologies of the beginning of the space age of mankind left much to be desired, so emergency situations arose quite often, like the one that Alexei Leonov encountered, almost remaining in outer space. But some of the surprises that lay in wait for the space pioneers in orbit were not related to the equipment at all. Many Soviet cosmonauts who returned from orbit spoke about unidentified flying objects that appeared near terrestrial spacecraft, and scientists still cannot explain this phenomenon.
Twice Hero of the Soviet Union, cosmonaut Vladimir Kovalyonok said that during his stay at the Salyut-6 station in 1981, he observed a bright, luminous object the size of a finger, rapidly enveloping the Earth in orbit. Kovalyonok called the crew commander Viktor Savinykh, and he, seeing an unusual phenomenon, immediately went for the camera.
V. Kovalyonok
At this time, the “finger” flashed and split into two objects connected to each other, and then disappeared. It was not possible to photograph it, but the crew immediately reported the phenomenon to Earth. Observations of unknown objects were also repeatedly reported by participants in the missions of the Mir station, as well as employees of the Baikonur Cosmodrome - UFOs appear quite often in its vicinity.
2. Chelyabinsk meteorite. On February 15 of this year, residents of Chelyabinsk and neighboring settlements observed an extraordinary phenomenon: a celestial body entered the Earth's atmosphere, which, when falling, was 30 times brighter than the Sun. As it turned out later, it was a meteorite, although various versions of the phenomenon were put forward, up to the use of secret weapons or intrigues of aliens (many still do not exclude such a possibility). Exploding in the air, the meteorite split into many pieces, the largest of which fell into Lake Chebarkul near Chelyabinsk, and the rest of the fragments scattered over a vast territory, including some regions of Russia and Kazakhstan. According to NASA, this is the largest space object that has fallen to Earth since the Tunguska fireball. The “guest” from outer space caused quite significant damage to the city: the glass in many buildings was shattered by the blast wave, and about 1,600 people were injured of varying severity. The series of "space" adventures for Chelyabinsk residents did not end there: a few weeks after the meteorite fell, on the night of March 20, a huge luminous ball hovered in the sky above the city. It was observed by many townspeople, but there is no exact explanation of where the “second Sun” suddenly appeared from, and even at night. However, some believe that the ball arose due to the reflection of the lights of the city on specially located ice crystals in the atmosphere - that night Chelyabinsk was covered with a thick cold fog.
3. Sakhalin monster. The remains of an unknown creature were found by the Russian army on the coast of Sakhalin Island in September 2006. According to the structure of the skull, the monster somewhat resembles a crocodile, but the rest of the skeleton is completely different from any reptile known to science. It also cannot be attributed to fish, and the locals, to whom the soldiers showed the find, could not identify in it any creature living in these waters. The remnants of animal tissues have been preserved, and, judging by them, it was covered with wool. The body was quickly picked up by representatives of the special services, and its further study took place "behind closed doors." Now, most experts are inclined to believe that these were the remains of some kind of cetacean, according to some versions, killer whales or beluga whales, but others object that the creature differs from both of them in its skeleton. As an alternative to the "accepted" point of view, one can name the opinion that the remains belonged to a prehistoric animal, which probably still survived in the depths of the oceans.
K.Makovsky.Mermaids.1879
4. Seeing off the mermaid. Mermaids are one of the main characters of Russian folklore. According to legend, these spirits living in water bodies are born as a result of the painful death of women and children, and rumor has it that meeting with a mermaid does not bode well: they often seduce men, luring them into the abyss of a lake or swamp, steal children, scare animals and generally behave not too decently. According to tradition, in order for the year to be successful and fertile, the villagers brought various gifts to the mermaids, sang songs about them and danced in honor of these restless souls. Of course, now such beliefs are far from being as common as in the old days, however, in some parts of Russia, rituals associated with mermaids still take place. The most significant of them is the so-called Mermaid Week or Seeing the Mermaid - the week preceding the Trinity (50th day after Easter). The main part of the ritual is the making and destruction of a stuffed mermaid, accompanied by fun, music and dancing. During Mermaid Week, women do not wash their hair to protect themselves from spirits, and men carry garlic and walnuts with them for the same purpose. Of course, at this time it is strictly forbidden to enter the water - so as not to be dragged away by some bored mermaid.
5. Russian Roswell. A missile military range near the village of Kapustin Yar in the northwest of the Astrakhan region is often found in reports of the most strange and inexplicable incidents. Various UFOs and other curious phenomena are observed here with surprising regularity. Because of the most high-profile case of this kind, Kapustin Yar was nicknamed Russian Roswell by analogy with the city in the US state of New Mexico, where, according to some assumptions, an alien ship crashed in 1947. Almost a year after the Roswell incident, on June 19, 1948, a silvery cigar-shaped object appeared in the sky over Kapustin Yar. On alarm, three MiG interceptors were raised into the air, and one of them managed to knock out a UFO. The "Cigar" immediately fired a beam at the fighter, and it crashed to the ground, unfortunately, the pilot did not have time to eject. The silvery object also fell in the vicinity of Kapustin Yar, and it was immediately transported to the bunker of the landfill. Of course, many have questioned this information more than once, but some documents of the State Security Committee, declassified in 1991, indicate that the military has repeatedly seen something over Kapustin Yar that does not yet fit into the framework of modern science.
6. Ninel Kulagina. During the Second World War, then Nina Sergeyevna Kulagina served as a radio operator in a tank and participated in the defense of the Northern capital. As a result of her injury, she was commissioned, and after the blockade of Leningrad was lifted, she married and gave birth to a child. In the early 1960s, she became famous throughout the Soviet Union as Ninel Kulagina, a psychic and possessor of other paranormal abilities. She could heal people with the power of her mind, determine color with the touch of her fingers, see through the fabric that lies in people's pockets, move objects at a distance, and much more. Her gift was often studied and tested by specialists from various institutions, including secret scientific institutes, and many testified that Ninel was either an extremely clever charlatan or actually possessed anomalous skills. There is no convincing evidence of the former, although some of the former employees of the Soviet research institutes assure that when demonstrating "supernatural" abilities, Kulagin used various tricks and sleight of hand, which was known to the KGB experts investigating her activities. Until her death in 1990, Ninel Kulagina was considered one of the most powerful psychics of the 20th century, and the inexplicable phenomena associated with her were called the “K-phenomenon”.
7. Dragon from Brosno. Lake Brosno, located in the Tver region, is the deepest freshwater lake in Europe, but it is known to the whole world mainly because of the mysterious creature that the locals believe lives in it. According to numerous (but not yet documented) stories, an animal about five meters long has been seen in the lake more than once, resembling someone like a dragon, although almost all observers describe it differently. One of the local legends says that a long time ago, the "dragon from Brosno" was eaten by the Tatar-Mongolian warriors, who made a halt on the shore of the lake. According to another story, in the middle of Brosno, an "island" suddenly appeared, which disappeared after a while - it is assumed that it was the back of a huge unknown beast. Although there is no reliable information about the monster supposedly living in the lake, many agree that some oddities do sometimes occur in Brosno and its environs.
8. Space Defense Troops. Russia has always sought to protect itself from all possible external (and internal) threats, and more recently, the security of its space borders has also been included in the defensive interests of our Motherland. To repel an attack from outer space, the Space Forces were created in 2001, and in 2011, the Space Defense Forces (VKO) were formed on their basis. The tasks of this branch of the military include mainly the organization of missile defense and the control of military satellites coordinating it, although the command also considers the possibility of aggression from alien races. True, in early October of this year, answering the question of whether the East Kazakhstan region was ready for an alien attack, Sergey Berezhnoy, assistant head of the German Titov Main Test Space Center, said: “Unfortunately, we are not yet ready to fight extraterrestrial civilizations” . Let's hope the aliens don't know about it.
9. Ghosts of the Kremlin. There are few places in our country that can compare with the Moscow Kremlin in terms of mystery and the number of ghost stories that are found there. For several centuries it has served as the main stronghold of Russian statehood, and, according to legend, the restless souls of the victims of the struggle for it (and with it) still roam the Kremlin corridors and dungeons. Some say that in the Ivan the Great Bell Tower you can sometimes hear the cries and groans of Ivan the Terrible, atoning for his sins. Others mention that they saw the spirit of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin in the Kremlin, moreover, three months before his death, when the leader of the world proletariat was seriously ill and no longer left his residence in Gorki. But the most famous ghost of the Kremlin is, of course, the spirit of Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, who appears whenever shocks await the country. The ghost is cold, and sometimes he seems to be trying to say something, perhaps warning the leadership of the state against mistakes.
The guards often say that at night on the territory of the Kremlin they see many terrible creatures, the contours of animals, people. A very interesting place among the secrets of the Kremlin is occupied by magical symbols that suddenly appear on the walls on their own. They repeatedly tried to fix them with a camera, but when developing the film, it turned out to be either illuminated, or blots were displayed instead of symbols on the wall.
On the territory of the Kremlin churches, some incomprehensible oddities also occur. The protection of the Archangel Cathedral always tells that every night sobs are heard here, someone's unfamiliar voices are heard, someone reads prayers for the dead, and someone laughs hysterically, everything suddenly stops after a sudden flash of very bright light. Who produces these sounds remains a mystery.
10. Black bird of Chernobyl. A few days before the infamous accident of the fourth power unit of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, four employees of the station reported that they saw what looked like a huge dark man with wings and glowing red eyes. Most of all, this description resembles the so-called Mothman, a mysterious creature that allegedly repeatedly appeared in the city of Point Pleasant in the US state of West Virginia. The workers of the Chernobyl station who met the fantastic monster claimed that after the meeting they received several threatening calls and almost everyone began to have vivid, incredibly scary nightmares. On April 26, the nightmare happened not in the dreams of the employees, but at the station itself, and the amazing stories were forgotten, but only for a short time: while the fire that raged after the explosion was extinguished, survivors of the flames said that they clearly saw a 6-meter black bird that flew out from the clubs of radioactive smoke that poured out of the destroyed fourth block.
11. A well in hell. In 1984, Soviet geologists launched an ambitious project to drill an ultra-deep well on the Kola Peninsula. The main goal was to satisfy scientific research curiosity and test the fundamental possibility of such a deep penetration into the thickness of the planet. According to legend, when the drill reached a depth of about 12 km, the instruments registered strange sounds coming from the depths and most of all resembling screams and groans. In addition, voids were found at great depths, the temperature in which reached 1100 ° C. Some even reported a demon flying out of the well. All this gave rise to rumors that Soviet scientists drilled a "well into hell", however, many of the "evidence" does not stand up to scientific criticism: for example, it is documented that the temperature at the lowest point reached by the drill was 220 ° C. Perhaps David Mironovich Guberman, one of the authors and project managers of the Kola super-deep well, told the best about the “well”: “When I am asked about this mysterious story, I don’t know what to answer. On the one hand, stories about the “demon” are bullshit. On the other hand, as an honest scientist, I cannot say that I know what exactly happened here. Indeed, a very strange noise was recorded, then there was an explosion ... A few days later, nothing of the kind was found at the same depth.
12. There are so many incredible rumors and mystical stories about the Moscow metro that astrologers decided to investigate it. According to Italian experts in the occult sciences, there is an interesting connection between the number of stations that are located on the ring line and the signs of the Zodiac. As you know, there are 12 stations on the circle line, and the circuit itself is very similar to a certain solar model. In addition, the number of stations is equal to the number of apostles who accompanied Jesus Christ. The fact that Moscow is an ancient city is beyond doubt, its very construction is exactly in line with the principle "what is in heaven is on earth."
Aries is the very first sign of the Zodiac, in the Moscow metro scheme it corresponds to the Kurskaya station, its location in the eastern part of Moscow. This sign is responsible for military affairs, the business sphere. In the area through which the Izmailovskaya branch passes, there is one of the sports universities in Moscow, there are many factories, military institutions, and the famous Lefortovo prison. Even the street names correspond exactly to this zodiac sign. For example, Soldier Street.
In the opposite part of the capital, where Kutuzovsky Prospect is located, Fili, there are no industrial enterprises, but there are many institutions that are responsible for partnership and peacekeeping. One of the most important agencies in this respect is the Russian Foreign Ministry. The most interesting thing is that the constellation Libra patronizes this area of Moscow. They are ruled by Chiron. The sign of Libra is dual.
13. Why was the Rossiya Hotel demolished? In the center of Moscow, an inexplicable noise was recorded back in the 80s. He was often heard by the guests of the Rossiya Hotel. The hereditary sorceress Alena Orlova claims that from birth she got the gift to feel the energy of the Earth, for this she does not need any instruments or sensors. Her body itself, the woman assures, gives accurate signals of exactly where the place of a possible natural disaster is located. Alena claims that the complete destruction of the Rossiya Hotel was a completely logical outcome for the building built on the site of the demolished temple complex. The rumble of the Earth seemed to warn - this building is doomed. According to Orlova, at this historical place, charged with positive positive energy for centuries, an abscess appeared under the name of the Rossiya Hotel, which immediately received a minus sign, opposite flows began to emanate from the Earth, aimed at destroying the enemy. The largest hotel in the Soviet Union has always been notorious among Muscovites. The monstrous fire of 1977, when 52 people died and two hundred guests were injured, is just one of the unexplained incidents at the Rossiya Hotel. Contract killings, sudden collapses of load-bearing structures, almost complete destruction of infrastructure - all these are links in one chain.
14. In the city of Shakhtersk on Sakhalin, in a small temple, the icon again streamed myrrh. This time it is the icon of the Mother of God of the Sign. Many residents of the city are seriously concerned, as they are sure that the icon warns them in this way about upcoming troubles. The temple in Shakhtersk appeared not so long ago, but it is famous for the fact that at different times twelve icons streamed myrrh in it. And according to Orthodox beliefs, this is a very significant phenomenon. As physicist Nikita Solovyov noted, the reasons for this phenomenon are still unknown to science. All hypotheses put forward were not confirmed. Why icons “cry” science is not yet able to explain.
15. Chertovo cemetery is a round bare glade 250 m in diameter. It is located in the middle of the taiga, 100 km from the confluence of the Kova River into the Angara. It is noteworthy that there is no vegetation at all in the clearing, and the trees surrounding it are charred, as if a fire was raging here. According to one version, it was here, and not in the area of Podkamennaya Tunguska, that the Tunguska meteorite fell. In the 20s and 30s of the last century, cattle often wandered into the clearing. And he died. Local residents had to pull it out with hooks, because they themselves were afraid to enter the clearing. The meat of the fallen cattle was abnormally red. It is believed that people also died here - before the Great Patriotic War, several hundred people died near the meadow or on it. Walking there is not recommended. To put it mildly.
Greetings, my reader. It is human nature to believe in miracles, apparently, therefore, from time to time, he observes incredible mysterious natural phenomena all over our earth. The human psyche is arranged in such a way that people are always interested in the mystical secret of nature, trying to substantiate the very reason for the existence of phenomenal phenomena of nature.
So once again faced with a wonderful natural phenomenon that is happening, which has a fantastically mystical nature, he cannot explain it logically, because here many fundamental laws of technical sciences do not work.
Some of these mysteries of nature really happen in reality in our lives, as they are fixed by scientists and have received irrefutable evidence of their real existence, and some of them are still unsolved, since they are inexplicable from a human point of view.
Possessing incredible plausibility, these mysterious phenomena still surprise and delight many people with their unusualness. Mankind daily expands its circle of knowledge about the surrounding world, but when faced with the wonders of nature, beyond explanation, it begins to plunge into the world of dubious conjectures and unrealistic fantasies.
Perhaps the most mysterious and inexplicable natural phenomenon are flashes in the sky that appear just before an earthquake. There is a lot of evidence for this strange phenomenon on earth, so scientists began to observe it in areas of rupture of the earth's crust and put forward a modest theory to explain this phenomenon.
It is believed that during an earthquake, a seismic shock wave sets in motion tectonic rock plates, and under the action of large mechanical stresses in the form of friction and heat, radon gas comes to the surface, which can ignite.
In addition, there is a so-called piezoelectric effect,
that is, the displacement of electrical charges in rocks such as quartz, silicon and minerals that are charge carriers. Due to the high content of oxygen in these rocks, electrical activity appears in them, in the form of current and air ionization, which cause 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 assure that a luminous fiery sphere floating in the air is generated by an ordinary lightning conductor, emerges unexpectedly from any object, and can also suddenly disappear.
It is able to pass even 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 in an electrically neutral environment, causes a faint glow. The physical theory of the origin and course of this phenomenon is interpreted by scientists only as visual sensations arising from the effect of light on the human visual organs. 
Another mystery of nature is unusual atmospheric phenomena in the form of luminous objects quickly moving behind the planes. These spherical objects are red-orange and white, appearing suddenly and disappearing suddenly.
They perform unimaginably complex maneuvers in the sky, as if someone is leading them, although they do not show hostility, but no one has ever managed to break away from them or shoot him down. For a long time, military pilots considered them the secret weapon of their enemy.
People who predict the weather have long noticed tube-shaped clouds, called the morning glory. Their unusual appearance will be marked by a strange weather phenomenon. Climatologists say that many kilometers of morning glory clouds arise due to the unique combination of changing humidity with coastal breezes.
A rare meteorological phenomenon called Fata Morgana can also be called a mystery of nature, when a city suddenly appears in the sky on the celestial horizon, in the form of a floating view of the city and its individual structures, similar to living objects from holography.
The unusual picture of a three-dimensional photograph against the sky is in no way explainable, since the distorted urban objects overlap each other, and quickly change in time. It is almost impossible to explain this, since the images in the sky do not match the real objects on the ground.
Puzzles nature of the animal world
An incomprehensible annual phenomenon can also be considered the migration of monarch butterflies over vast distances, wintering in the mountain forests of Mexico. Scientists have suggested that winged insects are guided by the position of the Sun, which shows them only the general direction. 
Circadian rhythms of cyclic fluctuations of day and night of different intensity of biological processes force insects to adapt with the help of their antennae, and insects are attracted by geomagnetic force.
An inexplicable fact is the sudden appearance of cicada insects, which, as if on cue, woke up in their underground habitats and massively came to the surface of the earth. For most of their lives, they are quiet, inconspicuous insects leading a solitary underground lifestyle.
These unusual long-lived insects mature at the age of seventeen, so they wake up en masse and come to the surface to procreate. 
The period of their reproduction lasts for several weeks, after which they die, and the newly appeared young insect larvae begin to dig into the ground, thus starting a new life cycle of their existence.
Scientists have suggested that cicada insects defend themselves in this way from their predatory enemies.
Man considers such a rare and unusual phenomenon as a falling rain from various animals that cannot fly to be an inexplicable mystery of nature.
- fish and salamanders
- frogs and toads,
- spiders and snakes,
- dogs and cats,
all these organic beings are falling in mass quantities in various parts of the world.
Scientists suggest that funnel-shaped atmospheric vortices in the form of destructive tornadoes and water tornadoes suck in and then carry various inhabitants of the animal world over long distances, where they are dumped on the earth's surface in the form of living rain.
Puzzles nature on earth
On the coastal plains of Peru, as if out of nowhere, not entirely explicable, encrypted hieroglyphs appeared in the form of drawings, having geometric figures of mysterious animals and plants, which are quite clearly distinguishable from a great height. It is believed that these works of art were created by the ancient Nazca people who lived here 500 years before our era.
These Nazca lines have even received World Heritage status, as they have attracted the interest of many people. Archaeologists and researchers from many countries have tried to decipher these figured geometric 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 also questioned, so a center was established in Japan to study more than 1000 such drawings around the world.
Under the influence of a mysterious mysterious force in Death Valley, California, moving heavy stones appeared. On the dried surface of the lake for 7 years, stones weighing 25-30 kilograms moved to a distance of 200 meters.
An analysis of the tracks and the path of these stones showed that these heavy objects were moving at a meter per second, although the process of movement itself could not be seen, so doubtful assumptions arose in their spontaneous movement. 
The main culprit in their unusual movement was considered such natural phenomena as:
- strong wind and slippery ice,
- wet algae and seismic vibrations.
Some people around the world claim to hear a frequently annoying low frequency noise called the Taos Earth Rumble. Unfortunately, the 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 wave impacts and singing dune sands.
In Central America, when clearing land for banana plantations, giant stone balls were discovered that have an ideal two-meter sphere.
These ancient giants - stone balls were attributed by date of origin to 1000 years of age. Why they were created and by whom remains a mystery to this day, since the Spanish conquerors destroyed all the indigenous people. Their true purpose is also unknown. 
Often, archaeologists encounter in their iconic excavations long-dead creatures that are found in completely unexpected places to which they do not belong. These fossilized fossils in the form of prints and traces of unusual people provide new information about the theory of human evolution, about its origin and appearance on our earth.
An example of such a mysterious find was the found fragment of an ancient man, whose brain was disproportionately large, and a huge human head with jaws similar to those of a monkey indicated that scientists had discovered a transitional missing link in human development.
The diversity of nature throws to thinking humanity such a strange phenomenon as wandering lights, which are also called demonic, as it is observed in the dark, mainly in fetid swamps and city cemeteries. These demonic fires can be seen at a small height, the distance of a person's outstretched hand, their shape and appearance resembles a spherical candle flame.
The candle of the deceased looks like a living bright flame that does not emit smoke, the color of the flame can be different -
- white,
- blue,
- green.
For a long time it was considered an old belief that these fires are the souls of dead people. However, the 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 gaseous phosphoric hydrogen that comes to the surface ignites spontaneously.

Bacteria, fungi and animals, ranging from protozoa to chordates, are living representatives of such a biological glow in nature. Luminous forms are numerous among marine organisms -
- annelids and planktonic shrimp,
- protozoa and intestinal cavities,
- fish and shellfish,
and among terrestrial animals insects -
- firefly beetles and click beetles,
- larvae of cave and mushroom mosquitoes,
- earthworms and centipedes.
The mystery of the universe can be called the fires of St. Elmo, appearing on the pointed tops of high towers and masts, as well as sharp peaks of rocks and single trees. These discharges of bright lights are in the form of luminous tassels, and arise as a result of some electric field strength in the air atmosphere. Their appearance to sailors during dangerous campaigns gave hope for salvation and success.
Mysterious phenomena in the ocean
Often in the depths of the ocean there is a mysterious underwater phenomenon, nicknamed by sailors as a Quaker, by analogy reminiscent of the croaking of frogs. These unknown low-frequency oscillations of sounds were repeatedly recorded by marine radar installations. For a long time, people considered unexplored species of marine animals to be the source of these strange sounds.
The researchers of this phenomenon assumed that they were certain species of cetaceans, or a giant squid hunting large mammals in the aquatic environment, the observation of which was difficult due to its boneless physique. 
For several centuries now, a mysterious story has been living in the minds of many people about the meeting of sailors with a 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 suddenly disappeared from the ship with their belongings and the ship's log. Despite all this, they left the freshly cooked food untouched. This fact has not yet been explained.
A rare case can be called the discovery of the Japanese Atlantis, this underwater lost city, which 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 features of the formation of this mysterious city, which went under the influence of earthquakes, are quite accurate rectangular walls of dwellings built 5000 years ago.
A lot of amazing and mysterious things happen 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 should believe in them, and then it turns out that miracles not only exist, but they are real.
Scientists all over the world are still trying to unravel the 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 the control of the best minds of mankind, to guess and find out their nature of appearance and origin is the immediate task of all mankind. 
And that's all for today and thank you for your attention, my dear reader. I hope you enjoyed your acquaintance with the most mysterious natural phenomena. Now you know all about them.

Sometimes unimaginable things happen on planet Earth. People tend to be skeptical of everything mythical and supernatural. However, the mysteries of nature and others exist in real life. This is confirmed by indisputable facts, but it is not possible to explain the nature of their manifestation with the help of known scientific knowledge.
8 wonders of nature
1 Ice Woman
This phenomenon surpasses all others, because it seems completely implausible in comparison with other mystical phenomena. In the state of Minnesota (Lengby), it was so cold that day that people tried not to leave their homes. The girl Jean Hilliard was later discovered. The young lady was 19 years old. She was completely frozen. It was impossible to bend her arms and legs, her skin turned to stone from the cold.
The surprise of the doctors knew no bounds when they saw the girl's ice statue. This was only the beginning of supernatural phenomena. The doctors said the girl's death was inevitable. And if she suddenly thawed, she was waiting for the amputation of all limbs and a serious long-term illness. However, after a few hours, Jin regained consciousness, there was no trace of the "freeze" on her body. The ice on the cooled parts of the body seemed to have dissolved.
2. Iron column in Delhi, India
Incredible things happen with seemingly ordinary materials, for example, with iron. It seems incredible that iron could have been made over a thousand years ago. Meanwhile, in Delhi there is a structure that has been decorating the city for more than one and a half thousand years. This is a column of pure iron, the height of which reaches seven meters. There is no sign of corrosion on it.
According to some researchers, at that time on Earth, people did not yet own such technologies. However, the artifact disproves that fact. It is necessarily present in the descriptions of incredible phenomena. A photo can hardly reflect all the grandeur and significance of this structure. The results of the research revealed that the building consists of 98 percent of iron. In ancient times, people did not have the opportunity to produce material in such a pure form, since it is very difficult in terms of technology.
3. Lost ship
In the ocean, too, often there are mysteries of nature and other inexplicable phenomena. An example is the story of the "Flying Dutchman", which has not lost its popularity for several centuries. It is impossible to say with certainty that all stories about mystical events are reliable. However, there are facts that are documented.
A mysterious and incredible incident happened to the crew of the K. A. Dearing. The ship was discovered in the 21st year of the last century. At first glance, it seemed that he had crashed, so a rescue team went there. The surprise and horror of the rescuers cannot be expressed in words. There was not a soul on board.
The staff of the service arrived at the place of service also did not find any traces of the fact that a disaster or a crash had happened. The crew seemed to just disappear without a trace. Personal belongings and the ship's log were gone, but the cooked food remained untouched. Nobody could explain what happened.
4. Hutchinson
The inexplicable and supernatural can be created unintentionally by man. For John Hutchison, Nikola Tesla was a model and idol. He tried his best to reproduce all the experiments of the scientist. The result of the experiments has always been incredible and unpredictable. Wood and metal became one, small objects disappeared during the experiments, but the levitation exceeded all conceivable expectations. John also tried to float weightlessly in space. but was never able to achieve similar results. They were always different, on the basis of which he concluded that what was happening was non-linear and the intervention of some mystical phenomena. NASA members tried to recreate Hutchinson's experiments, but failed to achieve the desired goal.
5. Blood rain
Unexplained precipitation fell on the inhabitants of Washington (Oakville), USA. Instead of the usual raindrops, a jelly-like substance fell from the sky. After that, all residents showed symptoms of a cold.
In the composition of the aforementioned jelly, white blood cells were found, similar to those that are part of human blood. In addition, in the composition, the researchers found two types of bacteria responsible for the diseases of the inhabitants. Scientists have not been able to explain what happened.
6. Lost Lake
The mysteries of nature that scientists cannot explain excite the imagination. The list was supplemented by a lake in the southwest of America in Chile. The event took place in 2007. A huge body of water 5 miles long disappeared without a trace. A few months before the incident, geological studies were carried out here, which did not reveal any deviations.
There were no harbingers in the form of cataclysms, the lake simply disappeared. According to ufologists, alien creatures are to blame, who pumped out all the water from the reservoir and took it with them.
7 Survival Frog
Some mysterious artifacts are over a million years old. Documentary evidence has a number of cases when amphibians, in particular, frogs, were found in the bowels of stone blocks. Even more incredible is the survival of the turtle, which was walled up in hardened concrete, after a year. How the creature managed to survive remains inexplicable. A whole and unharmed tortoise was removed from a construction in the state of Texas in 76 of the last century.
8. Lord of the water element
The boy who could summon water indoors was named Donnie Decker. This phenomenon has been documented. It first happened at a friend's house when he went into a trance state. Water drops began to drip from the ceiling, the whole room was shrouded in mist.
A few years later, the situation repeated itself in the restaurant. The owner of the establishment was angry and drove the teenager away. The third time Decker generated streams of water in a prison cell was when he was caught for disorderly conduct. The cellmates complained to the guards, but the perpetrator of the incident, without delay, showed his skills to the keepers of order. What happened to the guy after the end of the conclusion is unknown. There is a version that he got a job as a cook.
Mysteries of nature and other inexplicable phenomena exist in reality. Some people claim that they met aliens, others are able to predict the future, others see through walls. There are even specialized institutions that help people develop supernatural talents.
