On December 5, 1945, Flight 19 became one of the biggest mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle. This was the nineteenth flight to take off from the Naval Air Station in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The flight was set out to perform a basic training regime over the Atlantic Ocean. During the flight, the pilot’s compass was moving erratically and they could not figure out which direction to go. They were trying to talk to other commanders over their radios, but the connection was slowly fading. As they thought they were moving west in the right direction, they were actually moving north farther into the Atlantic. As they kept moving farther into the ocean, their connection was starting to get lost. In the end, the plane never made it back and no one knows what happened to it after doing several searches (Quasar 14-19). This is just one of the many mysteries that has taken place within the Bermuda Triangle. There are numerous speculations as to why this area of land causes so many accidents. Some say that it is the climate and nature of the ocean, while others say it is involved with paranormal activity. The Bermuda Triangle is outlined in the Atlantic Ocean that covers the areas of Miami, San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda, hence the name it was given. As it is also called, the Devil’s Triangle, the total area is roughly about 3,900,000 km2 (“The Bermuda Triangle”). This area of sea is a popular route for many ships or planes flying over. As it is heavily traveled, multiple ships
Charles Lindbergh’s was one of the most famous aviators in the 1920s. He was the first human to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. Charles was working as a mail pilot before he became a successful aviator. His success had open doors for the aviation industry. I’ll discuss my Charles Lindbergh’s impression, technology, process of navigation and accuracy, and the impact it had on the world of aviation.

In the summer of 1947, there was a day that caused a lot of speculation and hysteria in Roswell, a city in New Mexico. On that day, June 14th, 1947, an unknown object crash-landed into a ranch in the city of Roswell, New Mexico, leaving a huge amount of debris. There were many people that did not know what to make of this, and asked themselves, “Was that an alien crash or was it something else?” Many people claimed that it was from an unidentified flying object, or UFO, but others believe it is something less interesting. However, the hype of the incident was silenced until 1979 after the U.S. government officially declared that the debris was nothing more than the debris of a weather balloon.
This was a huge advantage because the ship would be able to ship to the front, sides, and
On June 14, 1947, the town of Roswell, New Mexico was home to a discovery that would propel the fifth-largest New Mexico city to worldwide fame. The discovery, in question, was debris that is debated to be either manmade or alien in origin. While bizarre conspiracy theories were given the spotlight a few decades later, the Roswell Incident managed to influence popular culture from things like The X-Files to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. Nowadays, Roswell serves as a tourist attraction due it its infamy, with plastic green and grey aliens plastered all over town and even a McDonald’s shaped like a flying saucer. Regardless of the town’s current playful reputation as a UFO enthusiast’s Mecca, the infamy itself is due to a decades long heated debate

For many years the theory suggested in the Perez 2 quote is what most people chose to believe. Until recently another theory has surfaced. The theory suggests that “The flyers landed on uninhabited Nikumaroro Island”(history.com).Amelia and Noonan may have lived on the island for several weeks, until they ran out of resources and eventually died. Many choose to believe one theory or the other, but they are missing the big picture. Amelia Earhart’s legacy does not end at sea or on an island.
Throughout history there have exist a lot of theories that could explain the weird phenomena that occurs in the waters of The Bermuda Triangle. Since Christopher Columbus was exploring the waters of the Atlantic Ocean he described in his trips about how he saw strange events happening in those waters. There has been reports of disappearances of dozens of ships, planes and persons all gone into oblivion where no one could tell how or when it occurred, they could just acknowledge the fact that they were gone forever, and that there was no concrete answer for what happened.

According to iRami (2012) stated that the shipping plays an important role in world trade which is the backbone of the world economy. Recently, without these boats and vessels provide transportation services, many countries will be unable to participate in world trade and will not be as prosperous. From centuries past, the sea has always been important to all country at the world which as an important factor of economic development of every maritime country.
