MY RESEARCH : AREA 51

Area 51, secret U.S. Air Force military installation located at Groom Lake in southern Nevada. It is
administered by Edwards Air Force Base in southern California. The installation has been the focus of
numerous conspiracies involving extraterrestrial life, though its only confirmed use is as a flight testing
facility. But what actually goes on inside is extremely secret. Members of the public are kept away by
warning signs, electronic surveillance and armed guards. It is also illegal to fly over Area 51, although the
site is now visible on satellite images. The base has runways up to 12,000ft (2.3 miles/3.7km) long. It is
usually used to test military guns and equipment and nuclear during World War II.

Each year, Area 51’s mythology draws tourists from around the world. People come to catch a glimpse of
otherworldly aircrafts and the mysterious base, which may house foreign spacecrafts. Some of the legend of
Area 51, which has been discredited for years, is based on true events—if you know the history of Area 51.

MY RESEARCH : Teotihuacan

Teotihuacan is an ancient Mesoamerican city located (50 km) northeast of modern-day Mexico City. The city, which
was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, was settled as early as 400 B.C. and became the most
powerful and influential city in the region by 400 A.D. By the time the Aztecs found the city in the 1400s and named
it Teotihuacan (meaning “the place where the gods were created”), the city had been abandoned for centuries.
Teotihuacan’s origins, history, and culture largely remain a mystery. It is arranged in a grid layout that covers about
20 square kilometers. It contains around 2,000 single-story apartment compounds, as well as various pyramids,
plazas, temples and palaces of nobles and priests.
The main buildings of Teotihuacan are connected by the Avenue of the Dead. The Avenue of the Dead is a
(40-meter-) wide, (2.4-km-) long road that’s oriented slightly east (15.5 degrees) of true north and points directly at
the nearby sacred peak of Cerro Gordo, an extinct volcano. The city contains several large, important structures:
The Pyramid of the Moon, the Pyramid of the Sun, the Ciudadela (“Citadel”) and the Temple of Quetzalcoatl (the
Feathered Serpent). It’s unknown who built the ancient city.

MY RESEARCH :The Bermuda
Triangle

The Bermuda Triangle is a mythical section of the Atlantic Ocean roughly bounded by Miami, Bermuda and Puerto
Rico where dozens of ships and airplanes have disappeared. Unexplained circumstances surround some of these
accidents, including one in which the pilots of a squadron of U.S. Navy bombers became disoriented while flying
over the area; the planes were never found. Other boats and planes have seemingly vanished from the area in
good weather without even radioing distress messages. But although myriad fanciful theories have been proposed
regarding the Bermuda Triangle, none of them prove that mysterious disappearances occur more frequently there
than in other well-traveled sections of the ocean. In fact, people navigate the area every day without incident.

The area referred to as the Bermuda Triangle, or Devil’s Triangle, covers about 500,000 square miles of ocean off
the southeastern tip of Florida. When Christopher Columbus sailed through the area on his first voyage to the New
World, he reported that a great flame of fire (probably a meteor) crashed into the sea one night and that a strange
light appeared in the distance a few weeks later. He also wrote about erratic compass readings, perhaps because
at that time a sliver of the Bermuda Triangle was one of the few places on Earth where true north and magnetic
north lined up.

There was once i dreamt about a graveyard. I could hear the
sound of crow cawing. I could see some big deciduous trees
and coffin beside the road. I couldn’t find anyone.I wanted to
leave this creepy place but no matter how fast i ran, I
couldn’t find a way out because it was like a giant maze. All
in a sudden i heard a sound calling me and she is touching
me. I screech at the top of my voice then i woke up. I
realised that this was a dream….

Sarah Winchester built a large, bizarre private residences after her husband passed away. There
isn’t any exact explanation why she built this house because the house was built with no master
plan. Peoples are still finding new rooms and new features to this house. I think we will only know
the truth when peoples find more and more things inside the house.
