Mysterious holes in the Arctic Ocean confused NASA

Looks like mysterious holes like someone pulling a sharp object, heating up ice cubes to create punctures and a slight melting of ice around.

A NASA scientist photographed the mysterious holes that appeared on the ice in the Beaufordm sea area (a continental seaside of the Arctic Ocean, near the Canadian coast).

Looks like mysterious holes like someone pulling a sharp object, heating up ice cubes to create punctures and a slight melting of ice around. It was clearly not created by humans because it was an uninhabited area and holes appeared on the thin ice in the sea - the place was not strong enough for the vehicles to move above. It is also located 80km from the coast of Canada - the Mackenzie Delta of Canada.

The mysterious holes appear on the thin ice between the sea.

And if it is said to be a natural phenomenon, no scientist has ever seen it before, in fact and in documents.

The photo was taken by NASA scientist John Sonntag for Operation Operation IceBridge in mid-April. He was surprised and brought it back to his colleagues and no one explained the image.

Scientist Walt Meier from the US National Snow and Ice Data Center, said he thought holes and circles around them were the result of a warm amount of water appearing on the ice, then escaping below. . Where did that country come from, he could not explain.

And scientist Chris Shuman (University of Maryland in Baltimore County, USA) believes that the gaps are related to warm currents flowing through the Arctic Ocean or a stream of warm water from streams, inland groundwater and somehow going to the icy ocean surface.

Currently NASA scientists are rushing to understand and verify hypotheses. Because if it is a strange natural phenomenon, it most likely reflects something that affects life and climate on Earth.
