The body of water, shrouded in a veil of secrets, is known to the world from different versions of films about the Loch Ness monster, publications and rumors. But not everyone knows where Lochness Lake is located. It is located in Scotland, in the very north of Great Britain. And although Loch Ness looks modest on the map, it is quite impressive in size. It reaches 39 kilometers in length. The area of the water surface is 56 square meters. km. The maximum depth is 230 meters. So more than one monster could easily hide in such a lake.
Loch Ness and its inhabitants
There are legends about the reservoir, connected not only with dinosaurs and lizards. Some evidence speaks of UFO sightings in the lake area. Most researchers agree that this is indeed an anomalous zone. The first evidence of the existence of a monster in the lake appeared in 1966. Then the director of the BBC channel filmed on camera how a huge animal moves on the surface of the water. Experts have proven that this is not a montage or a layout. After some time, attempts began to be made to capture Nessie or his cubs. But none of the expeditions were successful. Every meter of the lake was combed - and all to no avail. In 1992 there wereusing the latest technology of the time. The sonar went through every cubic meter of water. As a result, the researchers discovered about five species of various large animals, which were unambiguously attributed to long-extinct dinosaurs. Believe it or not - it's up to you, but there is evidence of their presence in the reservoir.
Lake Loch Ness, as it turned out, is still not fully explored. Already in the late 90s, with the help of deep-sea submersibles, a cave was found in the water column. Its depth exceeds 200 meters, and according to researchers, it can be the habitat of all the outlandish animals of the lake that hide there from annoying researchers. Scientists tried to find out if the lake is connected to other water bodies through this cave, but they could not get reliable data.
Issue price
Many people regret that now science and searches have gone by the wayside, and the main place is occupied by commercial interest. Loch Ness has become a tourist attraction and a way to earn huge sums of money. Every year many vacationers come here, ready to give money in order to become eyewitnesses of the appearance of a relic monster. But so far no one has seen him. Although there is a museum dedicated to Loch Ness on the shore. Here are collected all the evidence and evidence of Nessie's habitation in the lake, as well as the main representatives of flora and fauna. The annual income from tourists is 25 million pounds. But the saddest thing is that for the sake ofhype and increasing popularity of the town, businessmen go for outright forgery. Photographs and videos are faked (modern technical means make it possible to do this perfectly), false witnesses are bribed. In general, there is a vigorous advertising activity. As a result, trust in real scientific discoveries and evidence decreases. By the way, fake photos are not new. Back in the 30s of the 20th century, a fake photograph of Nessie was taken by a certain surgeon. Many people believed him, and the photo was considered authentic until the surgeon's death.
