This mechanism could explain the Bloop's wide detection range and distinct acoustic signature. [7] As oceanographer Yunbo Xie explains, the alteration of waveforms from a detected sound "can also be caused by so-called angular frequency dependent radiation patterns associated with antisymmetric mode motion of the ice cover."

While the audio profile of Bloop does resemble that of a living creature, [4] the source was a mystery both because it was different from known sounds and because it was several times louder than the loudest recorded animal, the blue whale. [5] The NOAA Vents Program has attributed Bloop to a large icequake. Numerous icequakes share similar ...
"The Bloop" is the loudest sound heard in history, that is certain. But what caused it is the mystery. But what caused it is the mystery. A scientist notices that cows always face either north or south, can they really sense the Earth's magnetic poles ?
Cryptids are animals or other beings that cryptozoologists believe may exist somewhere in the wild, but whose present existence is disputed or unsubstantiated by science. Cryptozoology is a pseudoscience.
Alpha Genesis maintains a colony of 3,500 monkeys on Morgan Island, in South Carolina — which has since been called Monkey Island — where it breeds monkeys for research purposes.
The Monkey Island of Pomraning and Simon's youth was a fraction of the size of today's island. The island is currently about 1,800 feet long and 800 feet wide.
Members of this family are called cercopithecoids, or Old World monkeys, and include baboons, colobuses, guenons, lutungs, macaques, and other types of monkeys. Cercopithecoidea contains only a single family, Cercopithecidae , and includes nearly half of the species in the suborder Haplorhini , itself one of two suborders in the order Primates.
Keiko became the star of the film Free Willy in 1993. The publicity from his role led to an effort by Warner Brothers to find a better home for the orca. The pool for the now 21-foot-long (6.4 m) orca was only 22 feet (6.7 m) deep, 65 feet (20 m) wide and 114 feet (35 m) long.
