Even today there are many incredible natural events and mind-blowing, mysterious sights for which the world’s scientists cannot offer any explanation. Most stunning events are actually quickly explained once researched. There are times though when even modern science is unable to provide any specific answers as to why or how something happens.

That’s exactly what makes our world so exciting albeit sometimes perplexing. As this goes to press the following 10 occurrences have yet to be adequately explained by science. Read on and see if you are able to come up with any explanation for these mysterious natural phenomena that scientists cannot explain.

1. The Morning Glory Clouds

The aptly-named Morning Glory Clouds is a mesmerizing mystery. These particular clouds are tube-shaped and quite long. In fact, they can stretch across the sky for literally hundreds of miles.

These clouds are reported to be found mainly in the sky above Australia when they transition from their dry season to their wet season. The local aboriginals believe that the appearance of these clouds is an omen that foretells an increase in the bird population.

Other than that theory, scientists have yet to conclusively prove exactly how they are formed.

2. Star Jelly

The strange gelatinous substance pictured here has confused the world’s scientists for years. It is a weird translucent material that is generally found on trees and grass.

Scientists have been studying it but they have yet to conclude what it actually is. There are some scientists that have a theory that this substance is the result of frog eggs expanding after being exposed to too much moisture but as they eventually discovered the gelatin does not have any animal or even plant DNA in it.

3. The Floating City

The date was April 21, 2017. The location was Jieyang, China. It was here that dozens of Chinese were stunned as they stared into the sky at what looked like an actual “floating city” high in the sky over their heads.

Six years earlier, the same floating cities were officially recorded in five different places across the country. There is one popular theory for this phenomenon. During the rare occurrence called Fata Morgana light goes through heat waves and creates a duplicating effect. Scientists have yet to officially confirm this at press time.

4. Tabby’s Star

This star was named after the person who discovered it, Tabetha Boyajian. Tabby’s Star is but one of the 150,000 stars that can be seen with the Kepler telescope. What makes this particular star unique is that the light from it often dulls by as much as 20 percent.

This is a significantly higher percentage than any other star on record. Thus far, scientists only have theories for why this is. Theories include alien life, a significant buildup of debris and dust, and the passing of planets.

5. Spider Rain

This strange occurrence also still has scientists baffled. For no discernible reason, flightless creatures will simply rain down from the sky. This has thus far included worms, frogs, and spiders.

At present the most popular theory researchers have come up with is that tornadoes or waterspouts actually lift and relocate literally thousands of these various creatures and then drop or shower them down on any and all nearby cities. These events have yet to be witnessed in person by any number of scientists, though.

6. A Bloody Sky

It was the month of April 2016. It was then that the residents of Chalchuapa, El Salvador, were witness to a blood red sky over them. It lasted for only a few brief minutes before then transforming into a pinkish color.

A number of deeply religious locals took it to be an omen that signified the end of the world. One popular theory is that it may have been a reflection of stubble fires that had been started by the local sugarcane farmers. Nevertheless, to this day no one really is certain.

7. The Great Attractor

Travel back through the mists of time with us to a decade called the (19) the 70s. It was then that NASA (the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) began studying an unusual force between 150 and 250 million light years away from our planet. This force was drawing the entire Milky Way galaxy and neighboring galaxies towards it. Scientists christened this force “The Great Attractor.” They have yet to explain what causes this attraction or how it began.

8. The Taos Hum

Taos is a town in the well-known Sangre de Cristo Mountains in north-central New Mexico in the US. It is a popular liberal arts community as well as the home of some celebrities. It is also famous for a phenomenon known as the “Taos Hum.”

This unique noise is a sound that can actually be heard by roughly two percent of the population of Taos. Oddly, every local describes the sound differently. While even special audio recording equipment has not yet been able to actually record it, the locals who have heard it still insist it is real.

9. The Tunguska Event

The date is June 30, 1908. It was at a spot close to the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in Siberia, that a huge fireball blew up just six kilometers above the planet’s surface. The resulting shockwave cleared the forests for miles around and an unknown number of animals were killed as well. Many researchers think the explosion was a small asteroid that exploded prior to striking the ground. Unfortunately, because there was no resulting crater, there was nothing for the scientists to analyze.

10. Japanese Atlantis

Beneath the waves of Yonaguni Jima, Japan, there are gigantic stones that look like the Aztec or Egyptian pyramids. Scientists have determined that these large rocks have been under the sea for approximately 2,000 years. Researchers believe that these rock shapes are the remnants of an ancient civilization that is almost 5,000 years old. They believe that these rocks fell into the water as a result of some unknown seismic event. While this theory is accepted, it has yet to be proven.
