Our planet is full of mysteries. Ancient pyramids in Egypt and South America, Stonehenge in England, Easter Island provide a lot of food for imagination and speculation. Due to the subjectivity of history, a person is unlikely to ever fully learn the secrets that lie in these echoes of antiquity.
On the territory of the Russian Federation, an object was also discovered that arouses questions from researchers, but does not give answers to them at all.
Mysterious crater
Patomsky crater is one of the most mysterious places on Earth. In 1949, the Soviet geologist V. Kolpakov, conducting research in the Bodaibo district of the Irkutsk region, came across, in his opinion, a strange waste heap, but immediately dismissed this assumption because no mining operations have ever taken place in this taiga area.
The indigenous population of this area did not have the technology for building pyramids, so the assumption that this is a significant archaeological find also disappeared. Remained the third, the most mysterious, version about the alien cause of the crater.
Another expedition to the Patomsky crater started 50 years later. Already at the very beginning of the expedition, the head of the expedition, E. Vorobyov, mysteriously died. Doctors found that the cause of the scientist's death was a massive heart attack. E. Vorobyov was an experienced, trained geologist, a participant in many expeditions, so it is difficult to imagine that his heart could not stand the transition.
In addition, the researchers did not find large animals within a 1 kilometer radius of the crater. Those. life seemed to have receded from a mysterious place.

There is no single version of the Patom crater yet. Some researchers are inclined to the unearthly reason for its appearance: the accident of an alien starship or the fall of a meteorite. Others offer a perfectly rational explanation.
The Patomsky crater is a consequence of a nuclear explosion or an exit to the surface of a kimberlite pipe. One thing is certain, the discussion on this matter will continue for many years to come.
