Wharton Basin, another deep sea region that has seen little exploration.
Its depest point reaches a depth of over 25,000 feet (7,600 meters)
New Hebrides Trench, between the islands of Vanuatu and New Caledonia.
South Atlantic Anomaly, an area where the innermost Van Allen radiation belt dips very close to the Earth’s surface.
Some say this vortex is connected to the mysterious plane disappearances over the Sahara desert.
Zimbabwe Megaliths, massive stone structures that required a high level of masonry expertise.
Devil’s Sea, south of Tokyo – Confirming age-old legends, ships and planes routinely disappear here.
Algerian Megalithic Ruins, located south of the Malian city of Timbuktu.
Hamakulia, east of Hawaii and believed to have once been a high-energy volcano, hence the anomaly.
Karachi (Pakistan), home to Mohenjo-daro, one of the world’s earliest major cities and supposedly, ground zero for the detonation of ancient nuclear weapons.
The twelve points are equidistant and together, they form the twelve tips of an icosahedron (think of a 20-sided dice). Ten of Sanderson’s vortices can be found in tropical climates five along the Tropic of Cancer and five along the Tropic of Capricorn, with the other two being located at the Earth’s North and South Poles. Roughly resembling lozenges, these sites are believed to be rifts where space-time folds in upon itself and everyday physics no longer applies. Although not all are equally famous, each vile vortex is characterized by magnetic anomalies and abnormal occurrences. In 1972, Sanderson wrote a piece for Saga magazine entitled The Twelve Devil’s Graveyards Around the World in which he plotted the global disappearance of planes and ships, underlining 12 areas that stood out in particular.
