Bermuda Triangle has to be one of the most intriguing and dangerous mysteries of the world. Thousands of boats and planes have been sucked into the notorious region.

According to Science Channel's series "What on Earth?" an episode about Bermuda Triangle, an area from the western tip of Florida to the southern tip of Puerto Rico and to the north of Bermuda. The image reveals oddly shaped cloud formation above western tip, between Bahamas and Florida, that look like tightly knit honeycombs, with hard edged six-line contours.

The channel also noted that similar kind of clouds are formed in North Sea, close to U.K., and lead to a phenomenon called microbursts. Randy Cerveny, a meteorologist at Arizona State University, explained to Science Channel that these honeycomb shaped clouds were signs of microbursts, also known as air bombs, that are formed naturally and unleash a powerful downdraft of air that can reach up to 100 mph, and is capable of destroying airplanes and ships underneath.

However, despite similarity of these clouds over Bahamas and North Sea, they are formed due to different reasons and interact with the ocean in a dissimilar way. In fact, another meteorologist, Kevin Corriveau, noted that the clouds formed above Bahamas did not have the characteristics of microbursts, even if they appeared similar.

He also added that the weather patterns between these two regions were extremely diverse to allow fair comparison between these cloud shapes. While the formation in Bahamas may have occurred due to presence of small islands that heated the air differently, the same could not be said about the clouds in North Sea.

The mysteries surrounding Bermuda Triangle date all the way back to first voyage made by Christopher Columbus back in 1492. Since then, all sorts of theories, from conspiracy to paranormal, have been expounded in all these years.

But the experts add that there is no dramatic variation in the disappearance of vessels in Bermuda Triangle, as any other part of the ocean, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said in a statement.
