What do you think about this?
On the night of October 4, 1967, just after eleven, people in the tiny fishing village of Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia watched a low object with four bright lights cross the sky, tilt to a sharp angle, and drop straight into the water. There was a flash and a heavy roar. Fishermen raced out expecting a downed plane and found only a patch of thick yellow foam drifting on the surface. Nothing else.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police called it in. Within a day the Navy sent a warship and divers who combed the sea floor for days. No aircraft was reported missing. No wreckage was ever found. The Canadian government’s own files list it, plainly, as an unidentified object that entered the water and was never recovered.
Could it be that something went into that harbor in 1967 that nobody, not the Navy, not the RCMP, was ever able to bring back up?
A meteor, a secret aircraft, or something that came down and quietly slipped away? What do you think those divers were really looking for?
What do you think about this? On the coast of Brittany stand more than three thousand stones in rows that run for miles, raised before Stonehenge and before the pyramids. Nobody left an explanation. A lost astronomy, a forgotten faith, or something we have no word for?
What do you think about this? In 1963 a man in Turkey knocked out a basement wall and found a city cut eighteen levels down, with stone doors that sealed from the inside and room for twenty thousand people. Nobody is certain who dug it. What were they hiding from?
What do you think about this? In 1934 the LA Times ran a front page story about a labyrinth under downtown built by an ancient Lizard People. The city let a mining engineer sink a shaft 250 feet down. Then the money ran out. A fantasy, or a real anomaly under the city?
What do you think about this? In Cholula, Mexico there is a hill with a pretty yellow church on top. It is the largest pyramid ever built, bigger by volume than Giza, swallowed by grass until it looked like ordinary ground. Lost knowledge, deliberate burial, or just time?
What do you think about this? A short boat ride from Venice sits Poveglia, an island so tied to plague dead and a shuttered asylum that it has been closed to visitors for decades. Fishermen steer around it. Grim history and imagination, or ground that holds onto something?
What do you think about this? In October 1967 villagers in Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia watched an object with four lights drop into the water. The Navy sent divers for days and found only yellow foam. Canada’s own files still list it as unidentified. A meteor, or something else?
