Mysterious earthquake-like noises are being heard around the world and no one knows what they are

In the middle of 2024 there are still a series of mysteries of nature that humans have not been able to unravel, and one of them is some mysterious noises of “earthquakes in the sky”, which are known in different ways, depending on the part of the world. in which you find yourself.

More popularly they are known as the “Barisal Canyons”, but the truth is that they have been reported for decades, and scientists have not yet been able to unravel their origin.

Although at first it was thought that they came from natural phenomena such as earthquakes, the latest research seems to point the other way.

And the sounds, sometimes, can be so loud, that are capable of making windows and doors shakeand which have been heard since the 19th century, although they have surely always been there.

In 2020 there was progress in this regard, because a group of scientists used seismic data from the EarthScope Transportable Array (ESTA) to try to explain this phenomenon, and compared it with other references from 2013.

They were researchers from the University of North Carolina who hoped to verify the noises with seismoacoustic data taken from the EarthScope Transportable Array (ESTA), but they did not find any events that coincided with earthquakes.

“In general terms, we believe that this is an atmospheric phenomenon, we do not believe that it comes from seismic activity,” said the researcher. Eli Bird in a statement to which he had access Live Science. “We assume it is spreading through the atmosphere and not the ground.”

The researchers presented these findings at the American Geophysical Union meeting in 2020, and believe the key was focusing on listening to infrasound data, which are low-frequency sounds that are not audible to humans.

But today, it is unknown if all these noises, which seem to occur anywhere in the world, are caused by a meteorological event or related to some type of specific event.

These could be weather issues like storms, even tsunamis that amplify sound in a particular direction.

Maybe also geomagnetic storms or the most promising possibility would be meteoroids that produce a sonic boom and that can end up producing this type of mysterious sounds that are heard, basically at night, due to the greater degree of silence.
