"Scientists Detect Strange Ultra-Low-Frequency Sound in Earth's Most Remote Point"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by IFLScience
In the remote Point Nemo in the Pacific Ocean, scientists detected a mysterious ultra-low-frequency sound in 1997, speculated to be from a giant underwater creature. However, NOAA Oceanographer Chris Fox suggested that the sound, known as the "bloop," was likely caused by ice calving off the coast of Antarctica. Similar sounds have been detected before and were attributed to icequakes generated by large icebergs cracking and fracturing, rather than unknown marine animals.
