Amazing appeared in california united states a geyser, which, unlike regular hot springs, moves. Scientists at a loss trying to explain this anomaly lithospheric plate shear (North American and Pacific) San Andreas Fault.
The San Andreas fault has been known to scientists for a long time, namely with the movement of these plates the famous earthquake of 1906 was associated with magnitude 9 on the Richter scale, an earthquake that completely destroyed then the metropolis of San Francisco. However the whole the rest of the world learned about California’s natural anomaly only after Hollywood catastrophe film of the same name, very realistic who showed what life on a natural barrel with gunpowder. ”
That’s why researchers moving geyser, which reached today a speed of 18 meters per day, and already close coming to the railway line, to destroy the railway, consider that a mud funnel is not just an anomaly, but also bell about an impending disaster commensurate with an earthquake the beginning of the last century.
For example, geologists are confident that today’s activity mysterious geyser, expressed not only in its movement, but also in the ever-increasing release of water and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, associated with seismic processes occurring deep beneath land, and nothing good about not promising California residents. As, however, and throughout North America as a whole.
And if today a moving mud funnel brings only certain inconvenience and seems to many researchers paranormal even something exotic, then tomorrow it’s can be a much more serious problem that spills over from mysterious to catastrophic discharge. However, the forecasts of scientists are not always accurate, and misfortunes and real disasters are often occur where no one expects them …
