The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is an area in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Theories for disappearances in the area include powerful hurricanes that provided little warning before the advent of weather satellites, methane gas eruptions from the ocean floor, and navigational errors due to the high magnetic variation that makes determining true positions difficult. While theories have been proposed, the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle remain unsolved.

2. Introduction
The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the
Devil's Triangle, is an urban legend focused on a
loosely defined region in the western part of the
North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft
and ships are said to have disappeared under
mysterious circumstances.

3. Geographical Area
Bermuda Triangle, section of
the North Atlantic Ocean
off North America. The area,
whose boundaries are not
universally agreed upon, has a
triangular shape that reaches
approximately from the Atlantic
coast of Florida to Bermuda to
the islands known as the Greater
Antilles.

4. Historical Content
◦ Flight 19 was the designation of a
group of five bomber.
◦ that disappeared over the Bermuda
triangle on December 5, 1945.
◦ after losing contact during a United
States Navy overwater navigation
◦ All 14 Naval Aviators on the flight were
lost.
◦ The captain knew that something is off
in the weather and was pulling their
planes

5. Natural Explanations
◦Atlantis
◦Sea monster or dragon
◦Time wraps
◦UFO(Unidentified flying
object)

6. Human Errors
Navigators
Lack of advanced
technology
Aviation incident

7. VIOLENT WEATHER

8. HURRICANES

9. HURRICANES
◦ Hurricanes are powerful storms that form in tropical waters and
have historically cost thousands of lives and caused billions of dollars
in damage. The sinking of Francisco de Bobadilla's Spanish fleet in
1502 was the first recorded instance of a destructive hurricane.[36]
These storms have in the past caused a number of incidents related to
the Triangle. Many Atlantic hurricanes pass through the Triangle as
they recurve off the Eastern Seaboard, and, before the advent of
weather satellites, ships often had little to no warning of a
hurricane's approach.[37]

10. .
◦ Tracks of all Atlantic hurricanes between 1851
and 2019. Many storms pass through the
Bermuda Triangle. A powerful downdraft of
cold air was suspected to be a cause in the
sinking of Pride of Baltimore on May 14,
1986. The crew of the sunken vessel noted the
wind suddenly shifted and increased velocity
from 32 km/h (20 mph) to 97–145 km/h (60–
90 mph). A National Hurricane Center
satellite specialist, James Lushine, stated
"during very unstable weather conditions the
downburst of cold air from aloft can hit the
surface like a bomb, exploding outward like a
giant squall line of wind and water."

11. METHANE
HYDRATES
ERUPTIONS
.

12. METHANE CLATHRATE
◦ Some researchers have suggested that methane hydrates could be responsible for
the disappearances of ships and aircraft in the Bermuda Triangle. However, it's not
clear if these eruptions are common or powerful enough to account for the
numerous incidents in the area.
◦ Methane hydrate eruptions are typically confined to specific geological areas, not
just the Bermuda Triangle
◦ Methane gas is known to be present in the Bermuda Triangle, and the release of
that gas could cause boats to sink and aeroplanes to crash. The gas could cause an
explosion if it came in contact with the hot engine of a plane.

13. ALIEN ABDUCTION
.

14. ALIEN ABDUCTION IN BERMUDA
TRIANGLE
◦ Alien abduction (also called abduction phenomenon, alien abduction syndrome,
or UFO abduction) refers to the phenomenon of people reporting what they
believe to be the real experience of being kidnapped by extraterrestrial beings and
subjected to physical and psychological experimentation. People claiming to have
been abducted are usually called "abductees "or "experiencers
◦ But still we don’t know the real mystery about the terrestrial beings and the
mystery about the Bermuda triangle.

15. Magnetic Variation
◦ In the Bermuda Triangle, the magnetic
variation can be quite high.
◦ Difficult to determine their true position.
◦ Ships and aircraft that rely on magnetic
compasses as their primary means of
navigation.
◦ High magnetic variation lead to navigation
errors and disorientation.
