The Mystery of the Bermuda Triangle
For many years in the southern tip of Florida sets a phenomenon known as the Bermuda Triangle. Without a hint ships, planes, and over one thousand lives were lost in the Triangle. There are many theories, but there is still no accepted explanation for these strange events that have occurred in the Bermuda Triangle
The Bermuda Trianglereaches over 440,000 square miles of the Atlantic Ocean. Its domain is from Melbourne, Florida, extends south to Bermuda and west to Puerto Rico before turning north to Florida. From 1972-1999, more than one hundred planes and ships have vanished into thin air. More than one thousand lives have been lost as well. One frightening aspect of this entire saga is that disappearances continue to occur atan alarming rate. (Grant)
A small part of the Bermuda Triangle is located in the Sargasso Sea. This sea which is known for its tall, thick, floating seaweed called Sargassum. The seaweed is said to be a forest that once rested on an island in the Atlantic Ocean. Legend says, the island sank at a very quick pace, taking with it the forest and vegetation. (Grant)
Flight19 is one of the most famous disappearances. This was basically what started the craze. The flight had five Navy TBM Avenger torpedo bomber planes. Mechanics had certified the planes fit for flight. The flight planes were checked thoroughly and appropriately filed with the proper authorities. There were no signs that this mission would be anything other than a routine experience for the crews ofthese aircrafts. The forecast predicted clear skies and calm winds. (Bauman)
Flight 19 left the Fort Lauderdale Airport at 2:10 p.m. on December 5, 1945. At 3:40 p.m. Lieutenant Robert Cox noticed his radio begin to sound unclear. The transmission seemed to be directed to powers.The person identified himself as FT-28, the call sign for Flight 19. FT-28 radioed that both of hiscompasses were out, and he was trying to find land. (Bauman)
At 4:26 p.m. Fort Everglades Rescue intercepted a transmission from FT-28. Immediately, the rescue team called several stations along the coast and asked them to turn on their radar and attempt to locate the lost flight. At 6:04 p.m. Lieutenant Taylor radioed his flight crew to tell them they were off course and needed to adjusttheir course east. That exercise appears to have mysteriously taken them further from land. At 7:04 p.m. all radio communication stooped. (Bauman)
In an attempt to find the lost flight, a Martin Mariner PBM-5 flying boat was sent to search for the mission squadron. The flying boat left Fort Lauderdale Airport at 7:27 p.m. (Omowoyela). At 7:30 p.m. the plane's radio failed, and flightdisappeared forever.
By dawn on December 6, 1945, the largest search and rescue mission over air and sea was underway. Before the sun would rise that day, over 240 planes and 18 ships would be deployed to search for Flight 19. Later that morning, the Royal Air
Force would send out planes to assist in the search. Numerous land teams would crisscross the Bahamas and the Florida Keyssearching .for signs of survivors or wreckage that may have washed ashore. One search and rescue ship, the S.S. Gaines Mills, radioed at 7:50 p.m. that they had observed a burst of flames that rose one hundred feet high and lasted for about ten minutes. Ships and planes rushed to the area, but no signs of debris or survivors were found. (Omowoyela)
After five days of searching,the rescue mission was canceled. No wreckage, survivors, or explanations were found for the disappearance of Flight 19.
Forty-six years later, May 8, 1991, a computer-controlled submarine scanned the ocean floor for sunken galleons. On this day, the crew of the Deep Sea would be unsuccessful in their search for galleons. Instead, 750 feet below the surface of the ocean, they would discover the...
