Specialists planted young cedars at an angle of ten degrees to get two laps in total, each of which would have ten concentric rings. After many years a unique education trees became clearly visible in satellite photographs.
Interestingly, the tree trunks grew convex, curving out. In addition, the distance between the inclined cedars is slow, but steadily increasing, and scientists cannot find this rational explanation. It is reported that originally cedars planned to cut down five years after planting, but then experts and officials realized the extraordinary experiment, and it was decided to continue it until the trees die themselves from old age.
So maybe the real wonders of this amazing “experimental forestry” is just ahead, however, to observe and other generations will solve them …
