The Bermuda Triangle is, and has always been, a mystery for mysteries sake. One of the oldest stories said to exemplify the mysterious qualities of The Bermuda Triangle is that of the first transatlantic voyage by Christopher Columbus in 1492.
Three events are said to be of note.
- The crew observed a fireball of some kind
- Their compasses inexplicably malfunctioned
- A strange light to be suspended above the ocean surface.
On September the 17th the crew noticed their compasses misaligned with the North Star. This was certainly alarming at the time but we've since learned that this is due to an effect known as magnetic declination. In short, the needle in a compass aligns with magnetic north while the North Star aligns with true north. More importantly however, neither of these two events occurred anywhere near The Bermuda Triangle but in the middle of the North Atlantic.
