The person on duty that was astronomer Jerry Ehman because of this surprising event he can’t tamed himself to write the word “Wow” in the printed paper. Even the high advance technology of this generation can’t unlock the mystery of this signal. Few people say that it was a message from Aliens waiting to be decoded by us.
7. The Mystery of USS Cyclops disappearance
A ship built to withstand extreme weather conditions and crewed with 306 professional sailors totally lost its way and sunk in the bottom of the ocean floor leaving us with unanswered questions. There was no trace of the lost ship or its crew. The ship was last seen navigating its way to Baltimore in 4th of March 1918.

However, the experts today can give us a mathematical answer of how ship wrecks happened in the Bermuda Triangle but this case is different. No scientific or factual study can identify where the ship is and what happened to it.
6. The “Phaistos Disc” of the Minoan Civilization
This ancient disc contains inscriptions in an unknown language. Some believed that it contains a message that will play a big part in our understanding the Minoan Civilization.

Researchers from Great Britain said that it was a nova star the same to what is found in China in the spring of 5 BC (Before Christ). Johannes Kepler said that it was just an instance of two planets forming a new star, others have said that it was only a falling comet. Nevertheless, no enough study can back up its claim and make a conclusion of what the star really is.
4. The missing burial ground of the founder of the Mongol Empire Genghis Khan

Another one among the biggest historical mysteries is Edgar Cayce an American Christian Mystic once predicted that remains of Atlantis will be found in the waters around the Islands of Bimini. He said it is likely to happen around 1968 – 1969. This prediction gave chills when professional divers from the Bahamas discovered several lined up big limestones that looks like a highway underwater. People said that it’s just remains of an ancient civilization. Still, the prediction and accuracy made by Mr. Cayce lingers the minds of many people.
2. Zeus, Poseidon and God’s of Greek Mythology could have been Aliens.
With their enormous power and intelligence people way back then believed that they’re gods who created humanity and they should be followed and praised. However, some people also believed that they are aliens that contain advanced technology and brilliant minds interfering with human lives. This is because they will always have the authority above us and they will have the power to rule everything. Even the famous book author of Odyssey of the Gods, Erich Von Daniken stated that these gods were actually aliens from a different planet and not mythological figures. Since no scientific evidence have been presented this will remain as a heresy.
1. Did the Babushka Lady play a role in JFK’s assassination?
The picture below shows a lady wearing a brown coat and scarf on her head that made her the Babushka Lady. This picture was part of the film and documents presented during the investigation of the assassination of the late president. It can be seen that the lady is taking pictures and seems like documenting the event. Even during the shooting the lady just continued filming showing possible characteristics of an expert assassin who is poised and alert.
Authorities were looking for the lady. They released a press statement asking for her film to be delivered, no film was delivered, the lady never appeared.
