What is explanation for the Bermuda Triangle Electronic Fog? The Bermuda Triangle is a region of the north-western Atlantic Ocean, which is also known as the Devil’s Triangle. Its three vertices are located at Miami, Puerto Rico and Bermuda, according to Gaddis, V. (1964). A number of aircrafts and ships have disappeared mysteriously in this region. A lot of theories have been suggested, in order to solve those mysterious disappearances. One famous incident involving the Bermuda Triangle is Bruce Gernon’s flight. He is one of the few fortunate people, who survived a phenomenon in that region, which he described to be an ‘electronic fog’. It was an early December afternoon in 1970, when Bruce Gernon lifted off from Andros …show more content…
It could be said that Gernon and his companions could have miscalculated the timings, but it cannot be true because the aircraft landed with more fuel than expected and his total flight time has been recorded to be little less than 47 minutes, which is really quick considering the aircraft’s limits. Another very controversial theory could be travelling through a space time warp. The space could have been compressed due to dark energy, which is a theoretical force with real cosmic effects. This could describe why the plane went missing for a while and why it was able to travel extremely quickly. This theory could also support another strange occurrence of Gernon feeling an increased forward momentum and weightlessness for about five seconds, when travelling through the vortex of clouds. This could be explained by using the nature of dark energy, which acts against the force of gravity. However, the amount of energy required for this is extremely high, and it is very unlikely that Gernon’s aircraft even experienced a tiny bit of that amount of required energy (Bermuda Triangle Exposed, …show more content…
But while making the final decision, I realised an essay on the future of aviation will end up being very descriptive. Therefore, I chose the Bermuda Triangle, which involved a lot of plane accidents, and it is very easy to find research sources about it, due to its popularity and great mysteries. When writing my MPQ, I found it really difficult to avoid being descriptive, but I also wanted to include a contextual introduction. After the introduction, I included different opinions and theories, so that I could agree or disagree with them, with justification. If I had another chance to write this MPQ again, I would like to add some statistics, which would help me back my points up, to increase their credibility. In order to find sources, I used Google with some search filters, and then I filtered them using the RAVEN criteria. One of my sources is a broadcasted TV programme on Discovery Science, which is a very reputable channel for documentaries. The programme interviewed Bruce Gernon, which provides information about his first hand experience of the ‘electronic fog’. The channel is not going to gain any interest in providing false information, and they also provide experts opinions of different aspects of the suggested theories. It presents differing opinions, which makes it neutral. I rejected Wikipedia as a
