Secrets of the world: the people of the US Hear a strange sound whose origins no one knows | You know?

Part of the Taos population constantly hears a strange low-frequency sound. Scientists’ efforts to discover the causes so far have been unsuccessful.

This annoying sound, which many of those who listen to it compare to the sound emitted by a diesel engine, received the “Taos Gossip”. (Taos buzzes) Name. Several theories try to explain the origin of this sound, both every day and taken from science fiction books.

The authorities’ mind-boggling secret experiments, underground UFO bases, some people are trying to give an explanation. But now many scholars already suspect that the answer to the question is not found in the external world but in the internal world.

It appeared 30 years ago

The first reports of a strange deception heard by the Taos people appeared, as is well known, almost 30 years ago, in the last century. in the early 1990s.

A strange sound was heard from the local government in 1993. Part of the Taos population began to complain. They explained hearing a strange roar that never falls silent, interferes with sleep, is more noticeable at night, does not disappear inside the house, and is sometimes even more audible there.

Researchers from the University of New Mexico have begun to explain what is happening here. They did research and found interesting things.

Researchers from the University of New Mexico have begun to explain what is happening here. They did research and found interesting things.

First, a population survey revealed that not many people hear the “Taos roar”. The fact that you hear a strange sound indicates about 2 percent. Taoists, or approximately every fifty out of every five thousand. population of a populated town.

The sound seemed to be emitted by something in the city: as the city receded, the sound broke and the furthest distance a person could still hear was about 40 km from Taos.

Men and women heard the sound equally, middle-aged people a little more often than other age groups.

Another strange thing the study found was that “Taos gossip” was not described by people in exactly the same way, and its frequency varied slightly, according to testimony. Some described it as an explosion, others as a roar, and a third as a capture. Some people complained that they could hear the sound more indoors, others that they could hear it both indoors and outdoors.

People who heard the sound only agreed that the sound is silent, but they constantly hear it and it bothers them.

Some people said that when they isolated their homes from outside noise, the situation only worsened as the outside noise in the home decreased, but the “Gaudes de Taoso” remained the same. They also said that at night, when there is less noise, the situation worsens as the Gaudesys de Taoso remains.

Researchers have installed devices that detect sound waves and sensitive vibrations in the homes of people who hear the sound.

However, even the long-running experiments revealed nothing, just no strange sounds were recorded. The origin of the sound remained a mystery.

There’s a strange roar and more

Taoso Gaudesys is not unique worldwide. More and more cities, large and small, whose residents complain about constantly hearing strange sounds.

These sounds are often described in a similar way to low frequency sound. Usually only a small percentage of people hear those sounds.

Such sounds were noticed, for example, by the inhabitants of the city of Bristol in England in the 20th century. In the 1970s, the American population in the Indiana city of Kokomo earlier this millennium.

What the two cases have in common is that the investigators finally concluded that the sound came from industrial sources, but even with the installation of new and quieter equipment by factories suspected of emitting sound, the sound continued to sound.

Sometimes the strange sounds are unique – many people hear the sound at the same time, but it doesn’t repeat afterwards. Scientists believe that just as strange lights can be seen in the sky for a variety of reasons (airplanes, clouds reflecting ground lights, car lights, etc.), strange sounds are also caused by a variety of things. .

Even more so because the sounds themselves are not always the same: the low frequency roar is typical, but it is not the only sound heard.

Some of these sounds remain unexplained, some are eventually identifiable.

For example, in 2014. Many residents of Coventry, England reported hearing a strange sound in the sky that reminded them of an “engine rattle”. Many described the sound as “alien” and said it remembered Independence Day. However, it later became clear that the sound was simply caused by an airplane that could not be seen from the ground due to clouds.

Sometimes these sounds are the work of jokers. 2012 In January, a student from Canada uploaded a video with strange sounds to YouTube asking for an explanation of what she was listening to. The video began to spread quickly online, with several million people watching it.

Only later, the student admitted that she herself had made the sounds to show her friends and family how easy it was and why they shouldn’t believe everything they find online.

But the Taos sound is obviously not caused by an airplane or by pranksters. This sound is constantly heard by people who hear it.

Possible causes of Taos sound

So what are the possible causes of this sound? Before talking about them, we want to point out: don’t think that determining the origin of an unknown sound is easy at all.

There are constantly many background sounds in our environment that we don’t notice until we try to pay special attention to what we hear.

Listen carefully. How many sounds do you hear right now? Probably not one. You can easily explain the source of the part: a computer fan, car transport, a clock, neighbors outside the window, etc. But you are also likely to hear some sound whose origin you cannot explain.

There are hundreds of possible sound sources in our environment, and their sounds overlap. Some sounds are generated by a specific source, others (like traffic sounds) by many separate sources, the sound of which is merged into one.

Therefore, identifying the source of an unknown sound is not as simple as hearing where it came from and then going to the destination. Especially when only a small percentage of people hear the sound.

It seems that the easiest explanation for “Taoso gaudesio” could be some kind of factory in the city, where the device or machine emits a sound that can only be heard by people with very good hearing.

There have been cases in the world where the origins of mysterious sounds have been clarified and these have in fact been industrial sounds. But in the case of Taoso Gaudesis, a possible industrial source of that sound could not be found, although it was sought.

Other possible explanations are that the sound is emitted by gas pipes, electrical cables or communication devices.

There is also a theory that the “Taos roar” is caused by low-frequency electromagnetic radiation, which only a part of people hear. Or that the sound is of seismic origin: the Earth itself emits very low and low frequency vibrations caused by the effects of ocean waves.

Like other inexplicable phenomena, Gaudesys de Taoso is a great opportunity for lovers of conspiracy theories. Others believe that the cheating is the result of experiments carried out by the army.

Others blame HAARP, a US government agency that studies Earth’s atmosphere, and say they are actually conducting experiments in an attempt to change the weather, and the sound is the result of the experiments.

A third searches for the source further and says that the sound is emitted by aliens. After all, the Area 51 military base is in a neighboring state! And it takes just 4 hours to travel to Roswell, where an alien ship allegedly crashed.

Others say the sound shows the government’s attempts to control people’s thoughts.

“Taoso aliens” are unlikely to be spread by aliens, but scientists have been unable to identify the sound source, even if the cause is more earthly.

It remains a mystery why not all people living in Taos hear the sound, but only a small part.

Some researchers say this may be due to the fact that 2 percent. listening to people who hear the sound is just particularly good. And that there are more similar sounds in the world, but only a minority of people hear them and don’t even realize they hear something extraordinary.

But then the question remains unanswered as to why people who hear the Taoso ghost describe it differently. Also, research has not shown that people who hear the Taos roar hear other sounds better than people who do not hear the roar.

As a result, some scholars suspect that the source of Taos’ traps must be sought in the minds of those who hear it, not in the phenomena of the outside world.

Possible internal causes

What sound do your ears make? This may seem like a stupid question, but it may involve an answer. Although we are generally unaware of this, our ears sometimes make sounds on their own.

There is a medical condition called hearing loss called tinnitus (tinnitus) People who complain of tinnitus hear tinnitus or growling in their ears, which is not caused by any external source, it is a completely psychological phenomenon.

Tinnitus is not a disease in itself. It is a symptom that can be caused by various reasons, such as stress, infections, prolonged stays in a noisy environment. People who hear the “Taos roar” may have tinnitus, although it is strange why tinnitus is so specific in this city.

And that’s not all. In many people (38-60% of the population), even those who do not complain of tinnitus, the inner ear sometimes makes sounds, this is called “spontaneous otoacoustic emissions”.

This phenomenon differs from tinnitus in that sounds are not limited to the human mind: they can be captured externally by inserting highly sensitive microphones into the ear. However, since these sounds are very quiet, we don’t notice them unless we are completely silent.

After all, although when we hear the word “hallucinations,” we generally imagine that a person sees what is not, hallucinations can also be voiced. Perhaps this is also the case here?

There is also a theory that the Taoso Gaudesys is a strangely collective hysteria. The so-called cases in which people massively believe in a rumor about a spread of diseases, poisons or the like. their bodies react as if the rumors were true. A type of reverse placebo effect.

There are known cases in world history when, for example, when rumors spread that water was poisoned in some school, students really began to feel the symptoms of mass poisoning. Although the investigation later showed that there was no poison in the water. Or even when some illness, for example a few workers, became infected in the factory, panic began to spread and other workers began to show symptoms, they had to be hospitalized, although in the end it turned out that they were not infected and the symptoms were psychological. .

It is not clear which version is correct, and multiple versions may be partially correct. Perhaps science will provide a more precise answer to this question in the future. And while we can only advise, tighten your ears well when traveling to Taos Town.
