An island in Argentina remains a mystery for scientists. Researchers saw this island in 2016. They found that when they look at the island, it seems as if the eye of the Earth is looking into the sky. Some people also associate it with aliens. The most special thing about the island is that it floats on water.
There is a mysterious island in Argentina. The name of this island is El Ojo, which is a deserted island located in the marshy Parana Delta of Argentina. The special thing about this island is that it floats. It is completely round, which looks like an eye when seen from the sky. Its name means eye. During the shooting of a documentary in 2016, the attention of filmmakers was drawn towards El Ojo. The team led by director Sergio Neuspieler flew over the island.
During this time he noticed the presence of the island among the cut vegetation of the delta. At that time he told a newspaper that we found a perfect circle, as we saw from the sky. He further said that the water looked completely black, but in reality it was transparent. The water in the delta is dirty, so it is rare to find clean water. El Ojo floats in a crystal-clear lake.
How big is the island?
According to El Observador, a slow process of erosion has caused the island and the lake shore to smooth out each other's edges. The island looks small in a photo, but it has a diameter of 118 meters. The island is made of plants. The lake's current causes it to spin on its axis and stick to the shore. This constant motion means that El Ojo has widened the lake and turned its shores into a full disk.
People are afraid of the island
According to Argentine news outlet El Cronista, this island moves in a clockwise direction. However, it is not clear when and how the island separated from the land. But it first appeared in satellite images about 20 years ago. During research, Neuspieler and his team found that the local residents knew about El Ojo. But there are many misconceptions about it. Local people are afraid of the island, because they believe that an ancient god lives there. At the same time, many people say that it attracts alien spacecraft.
