That hides the South Atlantic magnetic anomaly

Our planet abounds in strange places, who for decades does not give rest to many, leaving a huge number of questions that were never answered.

The most famous of these places is the Bermuda triangle. Since the beginning of the documentation of accidents, here mysteriously disappeared, more than 200 ships and aircraft, which led to a lot of myths and hypotheses about the nature of this mysterious place. But the most likely causes of accidents are powerful colliding air currents, forming hurricanes, treacherous undercurrents, and, oddly enough, the anomalous changes in the magnetic field in this region.

But recent scientific studies have given new impetus to the study of the anomalous nature of such places in the southern part of the Atlantic ocean scientists have discovered the strange anomaly, which can be called the southern twin of the Bermuda triangle.

We have studied this story and tried to figure out what was the impetus for the research that is happening in this part of the world and the mystery of the occurrence of such anomalies.





The mysterious disappearance of

This mysterious air incident occurred in 2009 involving aboard Air France 447, flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris. Taking off from the Brazilian capital, the plane 4 hours later disappeared over the Atlantic ocean. Search teams spent months combing the sea surface in search of answers to the reasons for the sudden disappearance. After a long time, the search failed and to investigate the mysterious incident had begun, a group of experts. One of the versions has surprised many – the failure of equipment due to the intense exposure of electronics to radiation.





Accidental discovery

In 2011, the space telescope "Kingdom" while orbiting the Earth at an altitude of 1,000 km, measured the levels of flow of protons of solar origin. Using these measurements, the "Kingdom" spotted the area where the protons are further than in other places on Earth. This area was precisely where shortly before passed searches aboard Air France 447. A further long-term observations confirmed that the magnetic field here is different from that recorded in other parts of our planet. So has an official name – the South Atlantic magnetic anomaly.



The location of the anomaly the South Atlantic or Brazilian anomaly has an area of about 8 million kilometers, covers most of South America and continues to grow. Measurements by a satellite showed that just in this place of the inner radiation belt of the Earth – belt van Allen is at a minimum distance from the surface of the planet. And maybe, just this factor is the reason of strange events happening here.



  Satellites and anomaly Like the Bermuda triangle dangerous for ships and planes and the Brazilian anomaly is a known threat to satellites. Low-orbiting satellites flying above this zone, are subjected to bombardment by protons from the Sun that destroy electronic chips or causing system shutdown. Even the world-famous telescope "Hubble" is forced to disable some of your devices to protect them.



Radiation on the outskirts of the Land was Later revealed that the area of radiation anomalies in "breathing." The frequency of breathing (i.e. change particle streams) corresponds to cycles of solar activity: the maximum activity flows are reduced, and low, on the contrary, increase. It would seem a paradox, but in the years of high, heated the atmosphere increases the density of its particles and radiation particles colliding with atoms of the atmosphere lose their energy. In the years of low flows radiation, virtually unopposed, freely penetrate long distances into the atmosphere.
 



Magnetic field and magnetic poles is the Cause of the South Atlantic anomaly is not known, but it seems that it is related to other, much more dangerous phenomena – the fall of the intensity of the total magnetic field of the Earth (that's been going on for 150 years) and the change of orientation of the magnetic poles of the planet.
 



Inversion of the magnetic field is Yes, the magnetic poles can switch places, and such an event has happened more than once. Latest – about 780 thousand years ago. And the growing South Atlantic anomaly and weakened magnetic field may be harbingers of a new polarity reversal. Inversion of the magnetic field of the Earth threat to our civilization is the fact that during this process magnetic field will disappear completely, and, then, magnetic storms, ionize the atmosphere (goodbye, cell phones) and burn satellites. However, the disappeared, the magnetic field will gradually recover, but when it happens, these events can't possibly say no. published
