8. Space’s Bermuda Triangle
Found Year: 2020
NASA is the one who discovered it.
South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) is the location.
With numerous boats and planes going missing over the years, the Bermuda Triangle has been at the heart of some of the greatest mysteries in the Atlantic for generations. As if those ghost stories weren’t scary enough, when travelling by the region that’s above the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), astronauts on board the International Space Station have reported experiencing problems with their computers and other equipment.

The anomaly that gives rise to this Bermuda Triangle of Space is the result of the Van Allen Radiation Belts becoming trapped in Earth’s orbit. Even the powerful Hubble telescope is unable to provide a good picture of what occurs in the SAA.
