0 A Massive Giant Sinkhole -Guatemala

Bookmark and Share

Wednesday, June 9, 2010 ~ 0 Comments

A very giant sinkhole swallowed an entire intersection in the Guatemala city. It caused due to the heavy rain downpour followed by a storm Agatha. The tropical storm Agatha made it's way on the Guatemala city by opening a hole that really looks like a "Gateway to the Hell" in the center of the city.

This massive sinkhole appears to be about of 60feet [18 meters] wide and about 300 feet[100 meters] deep. [The hight of statue of liberty without the stake part is around 151feet, so you can think now..] The 100 feet deep sinkhole swallowed up a big three story building.






















The sinkhole found at the Guatemala city is not believed to be a true sinkhole, because by the difination a sinkhole can be said where topsoil or bedrock is washed from the earth's surface. However, in the photographs we can see that there is far grater than some topsoil washing away.

This kind of giant sinkhole occurred twice at Guatemala in 2007 and now in 2010.
Here's some interesting pics of Sinkhole.

" Acocrding to a rereasch at Caibrmdge Univesrity, it deosn't maettr in waht oredr the lteters in a wrod are. The olny imaortpnt tnihg is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rhgit pcale.

See now, whats the difference here with the above one, According to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are. The only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole.

Aaah.. Smart people can read this easily. The upper given paragraph contains the words scrambled, but beside this we can read it very properly. A study was conducted at the Cambridge university, and according to it the human mind can read the whole word if the only first and last letters are at their proper place.

You can even try this with other paragraphs or any lines.

Hey, What that can be, is it a center of hurricane? [hurricane eye?] or it is a Jupiter's great Red Spot?... Keep on guessing, because it is not yet known that how this was formed...

The Giant Mysterious Circle is known as the Richat Structure. A prominent circular feature of Mauriania in the Sahara desert near the Ouadane.

From the space this depression in the sahara desert really dose looks like human eye. This phenomenon is actually a Richet Structure formed due to the dome shaped symmetrical uplifting of the underlying geology, and now made visible by the millennia of erosion. Or it is formed by the any meteor impact. Some still believes that is is formed by the underground buclear blasts. But all this explanations are not wholly accepted by any of scientist community.

On April 20,2010 an explosion occured on the semi-submersible offshore drilling rig Deepwater Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico.On April 24, it was found that the wellhead was damaged and was leaking oil into the Gulf. The pollution from the Deepwater Horizon, oil spill is very rapidly spreading from the Gulf of Mexico to the neighbouring shorelines of the southeastern United States.

 Around 2-4 days after the explosion, the rig sank to the ocean floor, and a pipe connected to the well on the sea floor broke. Oil began leaking from the Pipe.

It is estimated that around 6 million gallon of oil have leaked into the Gulf of Mexico within a month from the explosion in the Deepwater Horizon. This spreading of oil is a very serious treat to the Wildlife, affecting as many as 400 speacies along the coastal areas of Lousiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.

It is said by the scientists that, the oil has reached currents that could carry the pollution to Florida and also to the east coast. Beside this due to the underwater oil plumes, There may be and amount of oil beneath the oceans surface, of the same amound we can see the the top layer of the Gulf.

Here are some pictures form Google and NASA of the spill on periodically taken.
The lower two images were captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Terra satellite. The fist shows a wider shot of the oil slick spreading on the Louisiana coast, while the other one shows a very closer look.
