It's hard to believe, but there are natural phenomena that scientists still cannot explain. Such as, electricity balls appearing in the sky, or random movement of rocks without the help of a person or an animal. Can we ever find out the answers to these mysterious? May be! But, now, these 25 unusual natural phenomena remain a mystery to science.
Solar crown
Millions of kilometers in space belong to the crown, which is the plasma aura and surrounds the sun. This is what scientists cannot explain. And why the solar crown has large temperaturethan the visible surface of the sun. While average temperature The surface of the sun is about 5,800 kelvins, the crown reaches the combustion temperature from one to three million Kelvinov.
Migration of animals
Animal migration is found in almost all big groups animals, including birds, mammals, fish, reptiles and insects. Scientists puzzles the fact as these animals are driving on such amazing travels, and do not come down from the way? There were many theories about this phenomenon of nature, but true reason It remains unknown.
Sound anomalies or abnormal sound phenomena in nature
There are several places known for the hum, the phenomenon described as a permanent and invasive low-frequency buzzing, a rumbling, noise or buzz from an unknown source. One of them in Taos City, New Mexico, probably the most famous. Even more mysterious, is the fact that only 2% of Taos locals can hear it. No matter what origin has a strange sound, for those who can hear it, it is extremely anxious.
Jellyfish disappeared from the Lake Medusz
Located on the island of Eyl-Malk to Palau Lake Meduse, is the sea lake, which is connected to the ocean through a network of cracks and tunnels. Every day, millions of jellyfish migrate through the lake, and between 1998 and 2000, all gold jellyfish disappeared from the lake. There are many theories regarding this phenomenon, but scientists are still not sure about the exact reason.
Ice Circles
Also known as ice discs, ice circles are a very rare natural phenomenon that occurs in low-water waters at freezing temperativity. Scientists do not know exactly how ice circles arise, but it is believed that they are formed in the vortex streams where the plates rotate thin ice And gradually frozen together. The diameter of the circles can vary greatly from several centimeters to 15 meters or more.
Big Foot
For decades, people watched a large human type with a hairy creature, known as Yeti or a snowy man. While the vast majority of scientists are skeptical about its existence, there are several experts who believe that a snow man really exists. Supporters suggest that it may be a relic population of giantopitek, a giant monkey, which lived 9 million years ago.
Hurricane on Saturn
In 2013 huge hurricane It was seen on Saturn with the help of NASA spacecraft in the orbit of the planet. The storm eye was about 2,000 kilometers in diameter and crossed the clouds at a speed of 530 km per hour. On Earth, hurricanes feed on the warm oceans, but there are no oceans on Saturn, which could create such a gigantic storm.
Migration of butterflies Danaida Monarch
We have already talked about the miracle of animal migration, but there is one animal whose annual migration is especially impressive. The monarch butterfly lives only half a year, which means that the butterflies that return are children those who have committed the first migration. Never migrating how they can know where to fly? The researchers offered many theories, and a group of researchers revealed an antenna in a butterfly as a vital part of the body for successful migration. However, the accuracy of this theory has yet to be determined.
Rain from animals
In history, several strange cases, Falls of animals from the sky. For example, in the summer of 2000 in Ethiopia, it was raining out of millions of fish, while some of them were dead, and others still moved to all their might. Most of these "animals" rains occur at a tornado or other types strong stormscapable of raising and carry items and water, but there is one striking fact - Usually rains come from one species of animals. It may be rain only from herring or special view frogs.
Fireballs Nag.
Like I. fireballFireballs Nag are an unusual natural phenomenon. From an unconfirmed source, they were seen on the Mekong River in Thailand and Laos, where the glowing reddish balls were allegedly risen from the water. There were several attempts to scientifically explain the fireballs Nag, but so far there is no final substantiation of this phenomenon.
Zone silence
MAPI "Zone silence" refers to the desert patch in Durango, Mexico, and is extremely quiet placewhere occur strange phenomena. In 1970, the test rocket launched from the US military base near Green River, Utah lost control and fell in this zone. The booster parts used for the Apollo project also broke up, and landed in the same area, as well as the world's largest carbon chondrites. Or maybe this coincidence?
Flash lights during earthquake
For centuries, people observed strange, mostly white or bluish outbreaks preceding large earthquakes. Lights, as a rule, had a duration of just a few seconds. The first photos of this phenomenon were recorded after the 1960s. Since then, scientists have begun to take this phenomenon seriously and created many theories about the origin of light outbreaks, with the participation of piezoelectricity, heating under friction and electrokinetics.
Volcanic light
Scientists have discovered that such volcanic light is observed before the earthquake and occurs in areas where a large volcanic eruption should occur. Recent studies show that light can be caused by elements that awaken natural electric charge breeds, forcing them to sparkle and glow.
Illusion of the Moon
We all noticed that when the moon is on the horizon, it seems much more than when it is high in the sky. But try to spend a small experiment (for example, with a coin) at a distance of an elongated hand with one closed eye, position it next to the high moon, and then with big Moon On the horizon and you make sure that the size of the moon relative to the coin will be the same in both cases.
Synchronous blizzard flashing
Living in Great Smoky Mountains ( National Park) Synchronous fireflies are the only fireflies in America, which can synchronize their blinking. Fireflies are synchronously glow for several weeks every year, but the reason for such behavior remains unknown.
Cat purre
Do you know that the cat purring is one of the most mysterious sounds in the kingdom of animals? Scientists are studying, not only the origin of the sound, but also its causes. Cats often purr when they caress or during rest, but they also do it, while eating, and sometimes even during childbirth. In this way, main reasonwhy cats purr remain unknown.
Singing humpback whales
Males of humpback whales can produce long and very complex "sounds", which thought before, is needed to attract females, but studies have shown that the sound often attracts other males. In addition, individuals can recognize songs each other and distribute them among other populations. So the singing of humpback whales remains a mystery.
The emergence of the universe
IN modern worldThe theory of the Big Explosion is the prevailing cosmological model of the birth of the universe. She claims that about 14 billion years ago, all space was kept at one point from which the Universe appeared. Nevertheless, the theory does not give any explanation of the initial conditions of the Universe - it only describes and explains general evolution The universe, which began from this moment. But what existed before? We do not know.
Bermuda Triangle
If there is a place known to the emergence of mysterious phenomena and strange events with which scientists cannot figure out, this Bermuda Triangle. In this region in the western part North Atlantic, a number of aircraft and ships, as they say, disappeared when mysterious circumstances. Scientists tend to explain disappearances as a result of several coincidences, such as terrible weather, ocean flows, human errors, and even methane bubbles.
Loch Ness monster
Loch Nevsky Monster - this mystery is somewhat similar to Snow man. There were many cases of observation of the creature, but most of them were recognized as false. Nevertheless, there are some assumptions that the Scottish Lake can be a house for a relict plesiosaur, extinct maritime reptile, which is believed to have died about 66 million years ago. Plesiosaurs were once in abundance in the area where the United Kingdom is located today, but the likelihood that some individuals secretly survived close to zero.
Witch Circles
Found in arid meadows of the western part South Africa, Windy circles are round areas of fruitless land. Usually meet with monospecific herbal vegetation, the circles differ in diameter from 2 to 15 m. The origin and history of fairy-tale circles has long been a puzzle and even today, scientists do not know exactly how they appeared. One favorite assumption is that termites are responsible for circles, but the phenomenon area is much wider than the termites.
Moving stones
Also known as sliding or creeping stones belong to an amazing geological phenomenonin which the stones move and create long tracks along the smooth valley without human or animal intervention. There were even cases when the stones turned over, turning the side and changing the direction. The origin of this phenomenon is not defined, but scientists suggest that the movement may be caused strong windwhich pushes a stone by a thin layer of clay.
Whales per Melie
Every year, up to 2000 whales throw themselves to the beach, and in most cases die. It is also known that they used this strange way "suicide", at least thousands of years. Numerous theories were proposed about why they do it, but none of them were so convincing to be true.
Fireball
Ball lightning is probably the most famous inexplicable electric phenomenon. This term refers to flaming, spherical objects, which differ in the pea diameter of up to several meters. Ball lightning is usually associated with thunderstorms, but lasts much longer than ordinary lightning. The phenomenon was the subject of the study, since 1834, the English doctor and researcher William Snow Harris introduced the concept of a scientific sphere, but even now there is no generally accepted explanation of the ball lightning.
Hesdalen Valley Lights
Since the 1940s or even earlier, a strange light in the Hesdalen Valley, Norway was recorded. This is a natural phenomenon of white or yellow color And has an unknown origin. Between 1981 and 1984, the lights were observed until 20 times a week, but since then, the activity has decreased, and now the lights are observed about 10-20 times a year. Despite the continuing research and numerous working hypothesis, there is no convincing explanation of the origin of these lights.

Nature is amazing and multifaceted. Some of her phenomena are not amenable to any scientific theories and explanations. A person can only admire what he saw.
Northern Lights
Northern radiance is an unusual glow that is formed due to the interaction of the upper layers of the atmosphere with charged particles of the Sun. The higher its activity, the greater the likelihood of radiance. An amazing spectacle can be observed only in high latitudes, near the poles. The duration of the Northern Lights is from two to three hours to several days.
Falling stars
At night, in clear weather, it is often possible to observe quickly moving glowing points. And although they are called falling stars, these are just small stones, particles of substance. Bright flash occurs when they invade the earth's atmosphere. In some periods of the year, meteors are falling with a solid stream. Such a phenomenon is called "Star rain".
Fireball
One of the most mysterious natural phenomena. Such lightning has a shape of a ball, but sometimes its outlines can remind, pear, a drop or a mushroom. The color is most often warm shades - orange, yellow, red, but can be black, and transparent. The sizes of ball lightning are also varied in a fairly wide range - from 5-6 cm to several meters. Ball lightning is characterized by unpredictable behavior and a short effect - usually just a few seconds.
Halo
Galo is a common phenomenon. The circle of light around the Sun in medium latitudes can occur once a few days. The appearance of halo has, in contrast to many others unusual phenomena, scientific explanation. The light circle is formed as a result of the refraction of the rays of the Sun in the ice crystals, which are contained in the clouds. In addition to luminous circles, "false suns" can occur on the sides of the Sun.
Pearl clouds
Pearl clouds - the phenomenon is extremely rare. They are formed at an altitude of 15 -25 kmi in the cold parts of the stratosphere. These fine transparent clouds painted into pearl colors cannot be confused with anything else. You can watch them in nordic countries Either immediately after sunset, or before sunrise.
Freaky clouds
These clouds are often reminded by a flying plate. They have a view of a double lens. Frequently formed in front of a hurricane. Scientists believe that unusual form Clouds is explained by ice crystallines that are formed under the influence external factors (for example, the emission of the flying aircraft).
Fish and frogs rains
Precipitation from livestock - not so a rare event. In antiquity, he was explained simply - in a gift or kara gods. Modern scientists tend to see the cause in Tornado or Tornado, who first raise livestock in the air, and then transfer over long distances. But it is not clear why frogs and fish fall on a strictly limited area.
Being children, we all wonder blue Nebu, White clouds and bright stars. With age, many people passes, and we stop noticing nature. Browse this list of unusual natural phenomena, for sure it will make you in again Surprise the complex organization of our world, and natural phenomena in particular.
20. Moon rainbow.
The lunar rainbow (also known as the night rainbow) is a rainbow generated by the moon. The lunar rainbow is relatively larger than the usual. The best moon rainbow is visible with the full moon, or on the phase of the moon, close to complete, since at this time the moon is brighter. To appear the lunar rainbow, except for those caused by a waterfall, the moon must be low in the sky (less than 42 degrees and preferably even lower) and the sky should be dark. And of course there should be rain opposite the Moon. The lunar rainbow is much more rare than the rainbow, which is visible in daylight. The phenomenon of the lunar rainbow is observed in several places in the world. Waterfalls in Cumberland (Cumberland Falls), near Williamsburg (Williamsburg), Kentucky (Kentucky), USA; Vaimea (Waimea), Hawaii (Hawaii); Zailovsky Alatau in the foothills of Almaty; Victoria Waterfall on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe is widely known as the places of frequent observations of the lunar rainbows. On the territory of the Yosemit National Park in the United States is located a large number of waterfalls. As a result, the lunar rainbows are also observed in the park, especially with a spring increase in the water level from the melting snow. The light rainbow is also observed on the Yamal Peninsula under conditions of strong fog. Probably with enough high fog And quite clear weather, the lunar rainbow can be observed on any latitudes.
19. Mirage
Despite its prevalence, Mirage always cause an almost mystical sense of surprise. Optical phenomenon in the atmosphere: the reflection of light by the boundary between sharply different in the density of air layers. For an observer, such a reflection is that, together with the remote object (or the sky section), its imaginary image is seen about the subject. Mirages are divided into the lower, visible under the object, the top, - above the object, and the side.
18. Galo
Usually halo arise when high humidity or strong frost - Previously, halo was considered to be the phenomenon of over, and the people expected something unusual. This is an optical phenomenon, luminous ring around the object - light source. Galo usually appears around the Sun or Moon, sometimes around other powerful light sources. There are many types of halo, but they are mainly caused by ice crystals in the cider clouds at an altitude of 5-10 km in the upper layers of the troposphere. Sometimes B. frosty weather Halo is formed by crystals very close to ground surface. In this case, the crystals resemble shining precious stones.
17. Venus belt
An interesting optical phenomenon arising from the dust of the atmosphere is an unusual "belt" between the sky and the horizon. Looks like a strip from pink to orange color Between the dark night sky at the bottom and blue sky at the top, appearing before sunrise or after sunset in parallel at an altitude of 10 ° -20 ° to the horizon in a place opposite to the sun. In the belt Venus atmosphere scatters the light of the setting (or ascending) sun, which looks more red, so it turns out pink color, not blue.
16. Pearl clouds
Unusually highly highly clouds (about 10-12 km), becoming visible at sunset.
15. Northern Lights
Northern, or polar shine, also known as Aurora Borealis - really amazing spectacle. This nature phenomenon can most often observe late in autumn, winter or early spring.
14. Color Moon
When dusting atmosphere, high humidity or for other reasons, the moon sometimes looks painted. Especially unusual red moon.
13. Two-cone clouds
Extremely rare phenomenon appearing mainly in front of the hurricane. Open only 30 years ago. Called Mammatus Clouds. Clouds, round and having the shape of a double lens - before they were sometimes confused with UFOs.
12. Fires of St. Elma.
A fairly common phenomenon caused by the increased tension of the electric field in front of the thunderstorm, during a thunderstorm and immediately after. The discharge in the shape of glowing beams or brushes (or coronary discharge) arising at the acute ends of high items (tower, masts, lonely standing trees, sharp vertices of rocks, etc.) The first witnesses of this phenomenon were sailors who observed the lights of St. Elma on masts and other vertical pointed subjects.
11. Fire vortices
Fiery whirlwind is also known as the fiery devil or fire Tornado. This is a rare phenomenon in which the fire under certain conditions depending on temperature and air flows acquires vertical currency. Fire vortices often appear when bushes burn. Vertically rotating pillars can reach from 10 to 65 meters in height, but only the last few minutes of their existence. And at a certain wind can be even higher.
10. Mushroom-shaped clouds.
Mushroom clouds - smoke clouds in the shape of a mushroom, formed by the combination of the smallest particles of water and land, or as a result of a powerful explosion.
9. Light columns.
One of the most frequent species Galo, visual phenomenon, optical effect, which is a vertical light strip stretching from the Sun during its sunset or sunrise.
8. Diamond dust.
Frozen water droplets, sun scattering.
7. Fish, frog and other rains.
One of the hypotheses, explaining the appearance of such rains - a tornadow, sucking nearby reservoirs, and transferred their content over long distances.
6. Virga.
The rain that evaporates without reaching the earth. It is observed in the form of a noticeable deposition band emerging from the cloud. IN North America It is usually noticed in the southern United States and Canadian Prairies.
5. Bora.
Hurricane winds having many names. Strong (up to 40-60 m / s) Cold wind in some seaside areas, where low mountain ranges bordered with warm sea (for example, on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, on the Black Sea coast in the Novorossiysk area). Directed down the slopes, is usually observed in winter.
4. Fire rainbow.
Occurs when passing sun ray Cher high clouds. Unlike an ordinary rainbow, which can be observed almost anywhere in the globe, the "fiery rainbow" is visible only in certain latitudes. In Russia, the belief belief takes place in the eldest south.
3. Green beam.
An extremely rare optical phenomenon, a flash of green light at the time of the disappearance of the solar disk by the horizon (usually by sea) or the appearance of it due to the horizon.
2. Ball lightning.
A rare natural phenomenon, the unified physical theory of the occurrence and the flow of which is currently not represented. There are about 200 theories explaining the phenomenon, but none of them received absolute recognition in the academic environment. Losyoko is common that the ball lightning is a phenomenon of electric origin, natural nature, That is, it is a special type of lightning, an existing long time in the form of a ball capable of navigating unpredictable, sometimes very amazing for eyewitness trajectories.
IN South AmericaIn the Amazon River Basin, the largest waterway in the world lives - Giant Victoria Amazonian. The diameter of her leaves reaches two ...
The weather may be good or bad, but its anomalies always enchant us. We chose the most unusual natural phenomenawhich happen throughout ground Shar. And they are extremely rarely observed.

Brianikl (finger of death)
We are accustomed to seeing icicles hanging from the roofs. However, in the Arctic there are special icicles that hang under water and carry mortary danger For the inhabitants of the ocean bottom. This phenomenon was discovered almost 30 years ago, but the process of his birth was to fall out only in 2011, the BBC channel team.
The formation of this extraordinary icicle is easily explained by science. Salted sea water freezes somewhat differently and turns not to the icy firmament, but in something similar to the porous wet washing. Icebergs are literally permeated with small canals filled with salted water.
IN northern latitudes The air temperature on the surface can be -20 degrees Celsius, the temperature of the water is much higher - about -2 degrees. The heat from the ocean water rises up and hinders the iceberg, forming a new ice. Salt from this ice concentrates into a saturated saline and leaves through small channels to the ocean. The density of the brine is higher, and the temperature is lower, so it rushes to the bottom of the continuous flow and freezes the sea water around itself. For several hours, the stream is covered with fine ice crust, externally resembling stalactitis.
Having reached the bottom, the "finger of death" does not stop, but continues to spread along the bottom. In 15 minutes, such a structure is able to destroy all unknown living organisms on the square of several meters. It is for this a fatal icicle and called the "Ice finger of death."
Tubular clouds
There are a large number of clouds that have a special form and special causes of occurrence. Strange and unusual looks like dumb, or tubular, clouds. They look similar to pipe cuts, or on a lot of suspended balls, whose shade is changing from white to Isyne-gray. The color depends on the cloud thickness.
How do they get? Usually the clouds have a flat base. Warm wet air cools and condenses in water droplets. This occurs at a certain temperature, and its decrease in the atmosphere is associated with a height above sea level. Droplets grow and form an opaque cloud.
However, under special conditions (wet air at the top and dry bottom), cloud pockets filled with boat droplets or even ice crystals are beginning to be formed in the atmosphere, which are literally falling in fresh air. Such behavior of clouds is associated with turbulent movement of air masses. And the turbulent movement of air indicates the neighborhood of a powerful thunderstorm front.
Like any embossed surfaces, tubular clouds are particularly spectacular with mode lighting, in a sunset or dawn clock. They are mainly observed in the tropics, but appear in more northern latitudes.
Misty Rainbow
Misty rainbow is another optical phenomenon in the atmosphere, similar to the well-known rainbow. The phenomenon is a wide shiny white arc. However, this type of rainbow is painted neutrally, and it is not possible to see it during the rain, but during the fog.
For the emergence of a foggy rainbow, strict conditions are required. Droplets of water from which the fog is formed should have some size - about 0.02 mm. However, due to the diffraction of the light, the split spectrum is mixed and an uniform white color is obtained.
Due to the edge effects, the inner radius of the rainbow can be painted in purple color, the external has an orange tint.
Lightning katatumbo
Lightning is a natural phenomenon that arises in the north-west of Venezuela, where the river the same name flows into the lake Maracaibo. There is regular thunderstorm activity over the place of failure: there are almost 200 days in the clouds in the clouds, continuous thundering sessions last about 10 hours.
It is here that warm and wet air masses with Caribbean They meet with cold air, which descends from the Andes, as a result of which the swirls are formed. The decomposing organic care of numerous marshes allocates gas in the atmosphere. It improves electrical conductivity in the cloud, as a result of what lightning occurs.
For a long time this place He served as a guide for navigators - it can be seen from the distance more than 400 km. The Government of Venezuela wants to make a unique location by UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is believed that this is the largest natural ozone generator.
Moon Raduga
This phenomenon is much easier to see in a fantasy quest than revealing. Many factors are required: full moon There must be a low, the sky at the same time should be dark, and a powerful waterfall should be located opposite the shtamila or rain.
And anyway, the lunar rainbow you will see completely white. The fact is that even with the most best conditions Its brightness is extremely small and human physiology allows you to see only a white rainbow.
Here, a modern chamber can come to the rescue, which takes off on long exposure. The exposition of 15-30 seconds will allow the sensor to collect enough light, and the rainbow can be considered already color, but only in the photo.
Gloria is another phenomenon associated with the diffraction of light in the clouds or fog. This phenomenon of the weather can be detected only when the light source is behind the back, and the light reflected from the cloud returns directly to the observer. Gloria can be observed in the mountains as its own silhouette or during the flight as an airplane shadow on the cloud.
Rainbow halo around his own shadow was interpreted by Buddhists as a degree of human enlightenment. The seemingly enormous and living shadow disturbed the Germans rising in the mountains.
Coastal Cappuccino
The sea can turn into a foam in any part of the planet, but most often it happens in southern Hemisphere. In a few minutes, all the coast, houses and deck chairs disappear in a suddenly appeared foam, which slowly dissolves on the sand.
For the appearance of foam in sea water There must be a large accumulation of algae, salts and some waste. These components act as surfactants (like a shampoo in your bathroom) and reduce surface tension on the boundary of the water and air section. Well, the strong currents and the wind should not begged all the ingredients into a rich foam and take it out to meet with dumbfounded.
While foaming is only occasionally. But with further pollution of the ocean, it can acquire a permanent character.
Sprites, elves and blue jets
In addition to the lightning that we see from the ground, over thunderstorm clouds There are powerful outbreaks sent to space. They are divided into red sprites, "blue jets" and elves. The shape and color of flashes depend on the height on which they occur.
Unlike lightning, these outbreaks are characterized by pronounced blue or red and cover distances to 100 km in length and in diameter. This makes them an element of space weather, as the northern radiances are emerging in these areas and meteors fly.
This phenomenon is poorly studied for one reason: from the ground you can observe outbreaks only at low altitude. Now they are studying with the ISS. According to some information, strong emissions of electricity can "drive out" ozone from the protective layer.
Waterspout
Water tornads look like small tornadoes of water and, as a rule, they arise under the cloud above the water surface. Although it may seem from the part that the liquid is literally superseded from the water, the tornado is located above the surface and consists of droplets of water formed during condensation.
Occasionally, strong water talls are happening, but for the most part they are weak and caused by the collision of atmospheric dynamics, which forms a whirlwind.
Fireforward
This natural phenomenon appears extremely rarely under certain conditions ambient (temperature, air flow). It occurs when a post of hot, ascending air interacts with fire on earth or becomes its reason. It is a vertical fiber of fire in the air.
Morning Gloria
Morning Gloria - Rare meteorological phenomenon, "Thunderstorm Collar", which is formed on the border of the upcoming cold front. A downward air flow forces warm wet air to rise and cool - as a result, it cools down the dew point below and turns into a cloud.
This happens throughout the length of the front: the cloud is obtained up to 1000 km long and also rotates around the longitudinal axis. The speed of rolling the cloud can reach 60 km / h, which foreshadows a squall wind and bad weather In the direction of the movement of the "collar".
By the nature of the origin, the morning glory can be considered a tornado that lies on the side. It regularly appears in the fall in the north of Australia, occasionally in other parts of the world.
Volcanic zippers
Volcanic activity provides a very "nutritious" environment for impressive discharges, and in several ways. The incredible amount of emitted volcanic dust and gas creates a dense flow of charged particles.
This causes electrostatic ionization and, as a result, very powerful and very frequent zippers that try to neutralize the charge. There are two types of such lightning: 1) beating from the crater and associated with electrical processes in Magma, 2) occurring in the clouds and associated with friction volcanic ash.
However, the processes of increasing formation in volcanoes are very complex and depend on the set of factors: temperature, height of eruption, dust dispersion and its composition. because of big number Solid particles of volcanic ashs such thunderstorms are also called dirty.
Amazing things sometimes create nature. Phenomena natural phenomena surprise and admire. And the most interesting ones about which there are almost no information, as well as almost no photos.
Brianik
This is an icicle, which grows under the ice, and, racing to the bottom in 15 minutes, destroys all the lives that he will meet on the way. It was known about the phenomenon, but only in 2011 a team of the Air Force channel managed to take a picture of the first Brianik. Brickland growth - a grand phenomenon.
Tubular clouds
Such clouds are formed by the accumulation of air valves formed by dense air clots. The shade is changing from white to dark gray, and they look like elegant terry cotton bedspreads. They are also called snuby clouds. At night, they look especially frightening and picturesque. Meet B. tropical belt As a result of the movement of cyclones.
Trumpet clouds, day
Tubular clouds, night
Misty Rainbow (White)
This phenomenon probably met many. In the fog, the water drops are dissipated in such a way that the rainbow does not seem color, but looks like a whitish circle or semicircle. Sometimes it has inside purple, but outside an orange shade. Create its scattered small droplets of water with a radius of less than 25 microns. In such droplets of the chipboard, it is almost not created and the rays of the solar spectrum are not dissipated as usual, and we do not see all shades of light.
Snow Monsters (Jühcho)
Prefecture CJSC Osten in Japan from time to time was covered with snow in snow. It is not cleaned here, and with time the trees notice at all. They turn into frightening scarystone - snow monsters. It happens about once every four years. Locals say that if you spend the night in such a forest, you can go crazy. Eagerly believes, the atmosphere is really terrible. But there are no from those who wanted to take away: everyone who is associated with risk.
"Horsepads"
The clouds in the form of "horsepower" is a phenomenon caused by the effect of the "instability of Kelvin-Helmholtz". If the wind moves faster than water, they are formed exactly the same rages, but they do not have time to notice. The phenomenon is often noticed in Alabama.
Lightning katatumbo
This phenomenon can be found in the north-west of Venezuela, where the Katatumbo River flows into Lake Maracaibo. Warm aerial mass From the coast of the Caribbean sea is mixed with methane gas, which evaporates with local marshes. Lightning due to the explosion of gases sparkles more than 200 days a year, and the explosions are sometimes audible more than 10 hours. Indescribable spectacle, and nothing threatens local residents. And if also it's raining, then beauty.
Lightning is visible from a distance of 400 km, and many years of the sailors considered this natural lighthouse with their guidelines. During outbreaks, many ozone are produced, so this corner of nature is an excellent analogue forest massifs. And, by the way, a good hint of mankind, because people could also produce ozone from dangerous spent gases.
Fire Raduga
In Arizona, it is more than frequent phenomenon. The rainbow occurs when ice crystals in the clouds refract the rays of the sun. As a result, the sky is chaotic painted in different colors. It appears against the background of the cider clouds. At the same time, the sun should be above 58 degrees above the horizon line.
If ice crystals are parallel to the earth, then the phenomenon will take place, it is worth turning from the wind, the rainbow "melts" in front of the eyes. Similar phenomena also seen residents of France, Germany.
Feathers angel
The rupture in clouds is formed as a result of passing through cumulus or peacy clouds of a strong air flow. Such a phenomenon may be caused by artificially, for example, in Alabama in 2003, Joel Knein filmed emissions immediately after the aircraft flown across the sky.
"Angel feathers" in Alabama
The cloudy of this species is holding no more than an hour, then dissipates. The same clouds met in St. Petersburg, Gatchina.
"Angel feathers" in Gatchina
Moon Raduga
Wonderful and very rare phenomenon. The moon should be very low, the sky should be very dark, and the mandatory factor is a powerful vertical waterfall - must complement the picture. Then we will see the scattering circle of rainbow light, which looks like a color fog rising above the water. More precisely, it looks like a white fog, and the color can be seen if you take a picture of the nebula on a long exposure.
The lunar rainbow is often confused with white, but everything is simple. The lunar occurs only against the background of waterfalls.
Gloria (shine)
Mystical phenomenon. Supervice people can scare or turn around. The phenomenon occurs if the light source behind the observer's back is reflected in the cloudiness in front of his face.
And the shadow falls on the cloud, and a color aura arises around it. You can take for a sign of holiness or as a sign of enlightenment. If you do not know about the effect, it may seem that you have a shining angel. By the way, many people think and almost fall in the NIC.
Heavenly flashes
Sometimes bright red or bright blue zigzag autonomous flashes are visible over the thunderstorm clouds. They grow up a hundred kilometers long. Flash corners are directed up. A small number of such phenomena can be seen from the ground, and now it is carefully studied by photographing outbreaks from space stations.
Fire Tornhead (Fiery Tornado)
An extremely rare phenomenon is formed when there are several foci of fire and a strong counter wind. Rising hot air is twisted, the air heats up and pulls the fire strip into the funnel. The air is grabbed from below, and, appointed with oxygen, the tornado rises higher.
In the photo and video fireforward 30 meters high, the shooting was made by Australian Chris Tanji nearby near the city of Alis Springs (Australia).
Tornado is called fire or a devil funnel. The speed of rotation of the air inside it reaches 400 km / h, and the temperature is 1000 degrees. It allows you to melting metals. For example, the Great London Fire of 1666 was initiated by the "Devil's Funcher". In 1923, 38,000 people in Japan died from the tornado. Also, Smerd killed many people in Hamburg in 1943. The tornado expands and pulls into the funnel everything that can burn, burns until there is something to burn.
You can escape from the tornger, perhaps on the plane ...
Morning Gloria
On the edge of the cold air there is a cloud up to 1000 km long, which rotates around its axis. The speed of cloud rolling can be up to 60 km / h.
It looks like a tornado lying on the side. Predict the appearance of such clouds is easy, and from time to time they arise over different corners Planets.
Waterspout
A small tornado consisting of condensed water droplets is created above the water surface. From the outside it seems that it grows out of the water, but in fact it is over the water.
Tornado (Tornado, Trombus) is a vortex funnel with dimensions of less than 50 km, with a relatively stable rotation speed of more than 33 m / s. The funnel is formed over water, practically does not harm, the air is spinning, and sucks the moisture drops from the surface, turning water. The reason for the formation is the sharp condensation of moisture due to the cooling of the air of the stitch and swell. Most tornadoes are formed over cold waters, where the air is warm and frequent thunderstorms.
