In the Bolson de Mapimi basin near the Mexican town of El Paso, there is a very strange and gloomy area called the Zone of Silence. Millions of years ago, this area lay at the bottom of the Tethys Sea.

In the 30s of the last century, a pilot named Francisco Sarabia, while flying over this area, noticed that the onboard instruments began to behave erratically, and radio communications generally stopped working.

Attention was drawn to the area in the 1970s, when an American rocket was launched from a test site in New Mexico, which for some unknown reason deviated from its intended course and fell into the Zone of Silence. US Air Force officials went to scout the region and found several anomalies.

They learned that in this area radio and satellite signals are distorted or blocked by strong, unexplained magnetic fields. The radio wave dark spot was then nicknamed the "Quiet Zone". Since then, the Mexican government has built a research center here to study unusual phenomena. Many believe that the site holds innumerable secrets.

One of the region's strange attributes is the unusually high levels of magnetite and uranium deposits, which scientists believe cause electromagnetic pulses that can disrupt radio signals. It is also a hotbed of falling meteorites. Even nature itself behaves abnormally here. According to farmers, animals come to the area to meet their last day.

There are many reports of unexplained pool activity. Locals talk about mysterious lights hovering over the Zone of Silence and strangers appearing out of nowhere. The disc-shaped objects have even left physical evidence of burned vegetation at UFO landing sites. Some theorists suggest that there is a portal in the area.

Whatever anomalies occur here, the night in the Zone of Silence is delightfully beautiful.
Interestingly, the Zone is located on the same parallel as the Bermuda Triangle and the Egyptian pyramids. Whether a connection is possible between these geographically remote areas and whether Mexico's Zone of Silence is yet another mysterious Bermuda Triangle is unknown.

Significant facts about the "Quiet Zone" have not been presented or are kept secret. Regardless of the official answers, this area is considered a place where mysterious phenomena occur that defy explanation.
