The white rainbow, the bleeding stone… are some of the strange phenomena that the scientific world has had a headache to find a solution for.
Nature always hides mysteries and interesting things that challenge the scientific world. Although science today is very advanced, researchers are still trying to explain the mysterious phenomena that we sometimes call “miracles”.
The Eye of the Sahara, or Richat Structure , is located in Mauritania west of the Sahara. The structure spreads out with a diameter of 40km above the ground.
The formation of the eye structure began more than 100 million years ago.
Humans did not know the existence of this eye-shaped structure until space flight.
Geologists Guillaume Matton and Michel Jébrak from the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Quebec (Montreal) think that the formation of the eye structure began more than 100 million years ago.
At that time, the molten rock rose to the surface but did not spread, but formed a dome consisting of many layers of rock, like a large pimple. This process also creates fault lines that surround and run along the eye. The molten rock also dissolves the limestone near the center of the eye, causing the limestone to collapse and give birth to a special rock called breccia .
A short time later, the eye erupted violently, partially collapsing the dome. The erosion effect contributed to the structural perfection and led to the present appearance of the eye.
These circles are made up of different rocks that erode at different rates. The lighter circle near the center of the eye is volcanic rock from the eruption.
In fact, they are “living stones” – a unique sea creature named Pyura chilensis.
With this rough, rough appearance, many people will assume that they are a stone lying on the beach.
But no, in fact they are “living stones” – a unique sea creature called Pyura chilensis , which is concentrated in the Chile and Peru regions. More frightening, when cut out, they will reveal the red flesh inside.
Pyura chilensis possesses a simple nervous system – no central brain. Besides, the sex life of this small creature is very special. At birth, all Pyura chilensis are male, but as they mature, they become hermaphrodites.
They reproduce by spraying clouds of sperm and eggs into the surrounding waters. If Pyura chilensis is solitary, it will reproduce by self-fertilization.
A white rainbow can be observed in a thin layer of fog when the Sun is shining.
Fog rainbows (white rainbows) are created when sunlight hits small water droplets in the fog layer at the right angle.
A white rainbow can be observed in a thin layer of fog when the Sun is shining. Because the water droplets in the fog are so small, the white rainbow has only a faint or colorless color.
According to some experts, a white rainbow is about the same size as a regular rainbow, but much wider.
The crater contains a kilometer-wide blue lake of acid and sulfur.
Kawah Ljen is one of the mountains in the 20km wide Ljen Volcanic Basin in East Java, Indonesia.
Most especially, the crater contains a kilometer-wide blue lake of acid and sulfur. At night, the volcano’s hot gas ignites sulfur and creates eerie blue lights.
Some of the sulfur gas condenses into a liquid and continues to flow down the mountain slopes, giving the impression that blue lava is melting.
This desert rose is the formation of clusters of gypsum or baryte crystals.
Even if you insist that this is absurd, the desert rose is real! Quite seriously, these desert roses are the formation of clusters of gypsum or baryte crystals, consisting of numerous grains of sand.
On average, the size of a desert rose is 1.3cm – 10cm in diameter. The largest cluster of desert roses on record is about 99cm tall and weighs more than 454kg.
