The topics covered on this website are mostly on the fringes of legitimate science, in areas such as UFOs, paranormal phenomena, strange creatures, and the possibility of life on other planets. It seems that many people are more interested in these types of subjects than in the more orthodox types of research conducted by mainstream scientists.
The heart of the site is a large encyclopedia. I estimated that it has at least a thousand entries altogether. For example, under the letter P I found items such as phantom, Philadelphia experiment, Phobos, Pluto, Phantom Drummer of Tedworth, pyromancy, and Plain of Jars.
Note: For people like me, who didn’t know these things, The Phantom Drummer of Tedworth was heard in the year 1666 by two English girls in Wiltshire. And the Plain of Jars is a plateau in Laos where more than a thousand mysterious stone jars lie on the ground. Nobody knows their real purpose, but it has been speculated that the jars were originally used to hold the bones of dead bodies.
The site also includes a very impressive Image Gallery. It is divided into a number of sections, including Ancient Mysteries, Cryptozoology, Bigfoot and Other Ape-like Beasts, Extra-terrestrial Artifacts, Optical Illusions, Human Enigmas, and World of the Bizarre. In the Ancient Mysteries section, I saw several medallions from the lost world of Atlantis, a Baghdad battery, an Aztec carving of an ancient alien astronaut, crystal skulls, and numerous other unusual ancient artifacts. It would take several hours to go through the entire Gallery.
To visit this site, go to Unexplained Mysteries. It also includes a News Report, Forums, Member Blogs, and a Chat Room.
