One look into the night sky, and you'll know how mysterious the universe is. Here are 7 of the most mysterious unsolved mysteries ever told.
1. Cicada 3301
Every January, for the last three years, one online puzzle game is hosted by someone who goes by the name 3301. Going by their symbol, a cicada, the complex puzzle draws on elements of cryptography, mathematics, literature, hidden messages, data security, and philosophy. Along with this, oddly enough, physical clues appear in places as diverse as Poland, Hawaii, Spain, Australia, and Korea. When inquired 3301 claimed that the puzzles are an attempt to find 'intelligent individuals'. Nobody knows why. Many believe these almost impossible-to-solve puzzles are more like a recruitment vehicle for organisations like the CIA or MI6.
2. Flight MH370
It was a case that put most around the world in a frenzy, and it has been a mystery that has perplexed many. On Saturday, 8 March, 2014, while flying from Kuala Lumpur International Airport to Beijing Capital International Airport, Malaysian Airlines 370 or MH370 just disappeared into thin air. Flight 370 last made voice contact with air traffic control at 01:19 MYT (17:19 UTC, 7 March) when it was over the South China Sea, less than an hour after takeoff, and the aircraft disappeared from air traffic controllers' radar screens at 01:21 MYT (17:21 UTC).
3. The Pollock Twins
This one's a thriller! In 1957, sisters, 11-year-old Joanna and 6-year-old Jacqueline Pollock were tragically killed in a car accident in Northumberland, England. Roughly about a year after. their mother gave birth to twins Jennifer and Gillian. The odd bit was that the younger twin, Jennifer, had birthmarks in the exact same place as Jacqueline. It got quite eerie for the mother when the twins began requesting toys belonging to the deceased girls which they had no prior knowledge of. The twins even asked to go to a park they had never been to before. Reincarnation? Go figure!
4. Ram Bahadur Bomjon
Nicknamed 'Buddha Boy' by the locals of Ratanapuri village, Nepal, Ram Bahadur Bomjon is one mysterious phenomena. Bomjon's great ability is to remain nearly motionless in the same position day after day with no regard for extreme weather including, cold winters and monsoon rains. On 16th May 2005, he began his meditation in the hollow tree, but mysteriously disappeared, and was later found by some followers a week later. He told them he had left his meditation place, where large crowds had been watching him, "because there is no peace". He then went his own way and reappeared elsewhere in Nepal on December 26, 2006, but left again on March 8, 2007.
5. The Bermuda Triangle
I'm sure you've heard, and seen enough about the Bermuda Triangle. The Bermuda Triangle (also known as the Devil's Triangle) is an area bound by points in Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico, where ships and planes are said to mysteriously vanish into thin air or deep water. Over the years, the Bermuda Triangle has been a hot spot for theories. Many believe that the "Lost City of Atlantis" may lie at the bottom, and use "Crystal Energies" to shrink the ships. Many theories suggest that it's a "Portal" for time travel or a base for underwater aliens. Many theories, but nobody knows the truth.
6. The Wow! Signal
Jerry R. Ehman was scanning radio waves from deep space (Big Ear Radio Telescope) while he was working on a project for SETI, (the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence), hoping to randomly come across a signal that could prove the existence of intelligent life in outer space, when he saw his measurements spike strong on 15th August 1977.
The signal lasted for 72 seconds. It was loud and appeared to have been transmitted from a place no human has gone before in the constellation Sagittarius near a star called Tau Sagittarii, 120 light-years away. Ehman wrote the words "Wow!" on the original printout of the signal, thus its title as the "Wow! Signal." Ever since, every attempt to locate the signal again has failed, leading to much controversy and mystery about its origins and its meaning.
7. The Zodiac Killer
The story of the Zodiac Killer has to go down in the annals of history as one of the scariest serial killers ever. He operated in Northern California in the late 60s and early 70s. During this time, the Zodiac murdered four men and three women between December 1968 and October 1969. The killer came into the public limelight, and originated the name 'Zodiac' in a series of taunting letters sent to the local press. Of the four cryptograms sent by the Zodiac, only one has been solved definitively. The Zodiac killer has never been found
