Humans are the most advanced creatures on earth, but the exploration of the ocean is still on the surface, what secrets are hidden in the depths of the ocean?
Can we afford the onslaught of these secrets?
It wasn't until 2008 that a boulder was finally discovered in the depths of the Baltic Sea and confirmed by a submarine that had conducted an expedition, and that the stone had mysterious powers that could interfere with the work of electronic devices.
What the hell is this?
The appearance of the Baltic Sea boulder has also sparked a series of speculations about alien spacecraft or Nazi Germany's creation, and how did people finally confirm the origin of this boulder through scientific methods?
What is the secret of why this stone interferes with electronic devices?
1. Mysterious monoliths.
In 2008, an explorer went on an expedition deep in the Baltic Sea, and at a depth of 200 meters, he finally discovered this neglected monolith.
The stone is very peculiar, not only is it huge but it is also known at a glance that it is artificially carved, and it is surrounded by black mud, but the stone is completely clean.
It can be said that this stone does not match the surrounding underwater environment at all, as if it were a meteorite thrown here.
It was because the stone was so out of touch with the surrounding seabed environment that it caught the attention of explorers almost immediately.
The explorers then reported the condition of the rock to the Swedish National Oceanic Agency, which then sent a diver to the expedition, and the divers came to the side of the rock by submarine.
They turned on the camera from the submarine, then put the camera under the water and filmed the stone.
The submarine's camera was then remotely controlled by the submarine, but when the camera approached the rock, the camera suddenly failed.
The submarine's controller showed that the camera had 60 percent power left, and the camera had only been on the bottom of the sea for two minutes before it malfunctioned.
The divers in control of the submarine were taken aback, but they did not dare to ignore the boulder, so they decided to send another submarine the next day.
The next day, they encountered the same problem again, but this time they noticed the abnormality of the camera in time, so they immediately took the camera back, but after a closer inspection, they found nothing wrong with the camera.
So they decided to send a submarine to explore the rock, but when the submarine controlled the camera, the camera still didn't find anything abnormal, but when approaching the rock, the camera suddenly failed.
So they could only observe the rock through the submarine's camera, but when the submarine's camera touched the stone, the submarine's camera also failed.
Later, when the submarine tried to get close to the rock again, all of the submarine's electronics suddenly failed.
Because this stone was able to interfere with all the electronic equipment of the submarine, later submarines could not use cameras on this stone when they were on expeditions, but could only observe the stone through the windows of the submarine.
Ever since the stone's condition was reported, the stone has attracted a lot of attention.
The reason why this stone can interfere with electronic devices was initially speculated that the stone might be an anomalous magnet, so someone sent a submarine down to try to attract the stone with a magnet, but in the end it was unsuccessful.
It was later speculated that the stone might be an anomalous magnet, but later someone analyzed the composition of the stone and found that there was nothing unusual about the composition of the stone, so the stone could not be an anomalous magnet.
2. Alien spacecraft or made by Nazi Germany?
Later, there was speculation that the stone might be an alien spacecraft.
Because the exterior of the alien spacecraft is made of a material capable of interfering with electronic devices, when the spacecraft crashes, it leaves a boulder around the crash site, which interferes with the electronics.
Speculation about the alien spaceship spread among people, and some people even believed that the shape of the boulder was somewhat similar to the shape of the alien spaceship, so some people believed that the boulder was not an alien spaceship to be exact, but a part of the alien spaceship.
However, the speculation of the alien spacecraft has been rejected by others, who believe that humans have not yet found traces of alien spacecraft, so this boulder cannot be an alien spaceship.
So some people began to speculate that this boulder might be a prehistoric boulder, but this speculation was quickly denied, because the mysterious power of this boulder is too strong to interfere with electronic devices, so it cannot be a prehistoric boulder.
In between, there is speculation that the monolith may have been made by Nazi Germany, or that Nazi Germany got it from an alien spaceship.
At that time, Nazi Germany made a very wide variety of weapons, but the military factories of Nazi Germany were discovered, and the weapons made by Nazi Germany were made of materials that could be used by humans at that time, so it was impossible for Nazi Germany to create a mysterious boulder that interfered with electronic equipment.
At that time, Nazi Germany wanted to create a weapon that could interfere with electronic equipment, so it wanted to get it from the alien spaceship, but Nazi Germany did not get the parts of the alien spacecraft, but got some wreckage of the alien spacecraft, and the wreckage of these alien spaceships was also found, so this boulder could not have been obtained by Nazi Germany from the alien spaceship.
3. Scientifically determined.
This series of speculations remained inconclusive until a carbon-14 dating of the boulder was performed.
Carbon-14 dating is the process of dating an object by measuring the rate at which a radioactive substance called carbon-14 decays.
The principle of carbon-14 dating is that when the object is alive, carbon-14 will absorb radioactive carbon-14 from the atmosphere at a certain rate, but when the object dies, carbon-14 will release carbon-14 from the atmosphere at the same rate, so when people measure the carbon-14 content of the object, the age of the object can be obtained.
After carbon-14 dating, it was found that the monolith was very old, at least 100,000 years old.
epilogue
The reason why there is such a big difference in the age of this boulder is mainly because the environment in the depths of the Baltic Sea is extremely harsh, so this boulder can be preserved.
After the results of this carbon-14 dating, it became known that the monolith could not have been made by an alien spaceship or Nazi Germany, but a prehistoric monolith.
But why this boulder interferes with electronic devices is still unknown.
