Thinking Sideways. I don't you never know stories of things we simply don't know the answer too. Well, Hi there, everybody, and welcome back to Thinking Sideways the podcast. Welcome back for everybody who's been with us before, Hi there, and welcome for the first time for anybody that hasn't. Who hasn't I think everybody in the world listens to us

now quiet not exactly. Well, today we're gonna we're gonna go into a subject that I kind of feel like maybe I stole out from under Devon because Devin likes to do the stories about weird noises. Yeah, and I sort of it's been like working on that megalithic episode that may or may not happen, and I just got distracted and suddenly I was like, what are we doing this week? And I was like, oh, sky quakes. Steve, Yeah, she tried to stab him, but yeah, the drama of

the show, ye stuff. Yeah, well, let's talk about skyquakes. Skyquakes are a weird phenomena. Depending on where you are in the States, in the continental United States or or maybe in other countries, you'll hear them named a number of different things up. You'll hear them called the Guns of Seneca, the Moodest Noises fog guns, Mr. Poofer's, the baronsl guns. These things have a lot of names and names very regional. Yeah, absolutely, um, but but they're all over.

But you know, that kind of gives you an idea that what we're talking about isn't focused in any one region. It's this is a global phenomenon that's been going on for a long time. It has been going on for quite long, hundreds of years. Hundreds of years. Yes, yes, we have accounts from a long time ago, which we'll

we'll actually get to here briefly. Uh So, let's do this so just to kind of give kind of the basic rundown of skyquakes, Typically they're reported in coastal areas and and that can be you know, on the coast of the ocean or a large lake or occasionally large rivers like the Danube or um the Mississippi things like that, and or the Ganges was the other one that I was thinking of. Usually, what happens the sky is clear. If there are clouds, they're not very big and specifically

they're not thunderclouds. Yes, they're just nice white, poofy clouds against the blue sky out of nowhere, there will be an extremely loud boom. And these things, these noises are sometimes uh described as sounding like a cannon or artillery going off. And you know, it's not always just one. Sometimes there can be several in a row, one after the other. So it's not as if there's one event causing a single boom. We're talking in multiples. Yeah. The one that I have heard, the only one that I've

actually heard recording of. It sounds like a big boom followed by somewhat three somewhat smaller booms and you know, almost like a machine gun kind of thing, kind of kind of just kind of a rhythm there. Yeah. Well, and as Devon was was briefly alluding to that, they've been around for a long time. We've known about them when the European settlers came to the northeast of the

United States, the Iroquois evidently told them. The Indians of the area told them that they had heard the noises before, and they explained it as the Great Spirit continuing his work on shaping the earth, because evidently it was a work in progress. Well, well, it actually kind of is changing. Yeah, Um, so you know, I could try and describe these a lot.

But what I figured it was the best thing to do was to take the recording that one of the recordings that I found online and play that for everybody so that you can kind of get an idea of

what this sounds like. Now, the clip that we're gonna we're gonna put in here, there are car alarms and there are dogs barking in the background, and I'm gonna try and ease that out as much as possible, but it will be very obvious when the sky quake happens, and it is extremely loud, to just be prepared for that. So there you go, very obvious. It does sound like cannon's it really, it doesn't sound like carl arms, it does. It sounds like artillery or thunder or a cannon or something,

but it does sound like artillery to me. Yeah, it's really weird. I have a theory, but I'm gonna wait till later, Oh, until we get into the theory section, because that's where we're at. Because literally listening to this the sky quake, that gives you a good idea of what it is, and there are so many places that they've happened that it's not worth going into everyone. It's much simpler just to kind of get into what the theories are of what is causing me. Yeah, well, I'm

going to tell you what my theory. It's like. My theory is, is um a gigantic alien starship in the in the atmosphere and they teleported out basically to go into warp or whatever. They just vanished from the spot that they were in, which is immediately filled by air rushing in, creating a big kaboom a. Yeah, so that's that's one theory. Okay. Well, Joe let us off with the most fantastical theory. Yeah, no, he didn't, because actually

the first theory is pretty fantastical. Yeah. This first theory says that these are government experiments with e m p s that are causing this noise. Okay, and now just quickly, how do they explain the fact that it's been going on for They don't. That's they don't. That's an issue

with the thing. And we can just go ahead and say that if the government is has something going on like this, they would probably um propagate stories of it happening for a long time possibly or maybe or maybe they ripped the space time continuum and the noises are reflected back in time. That's just as crazy teleported back in time to plant stories. There you go, there you go. Well, here's here's the main thing that drives this e MP government conspiracy theory, because this really is kind of a

conspiracy theory. It's all based around an event that is referred to as the Bell Island boom. Okay, not enough for clarity by e MP. You're talking about electromagnetic pulse. Yes, electromagnetic pulse. That is absolutely correct. Bell Island is located on the southeastern tip of Newfoundland. Yeah, it's it's it's it's right, not New Jersey. It's not New Jersey. No, no, okay, no Newfoundland is It's in Canada. It's in the Atlantic. It's kind of like one of their farthest islands to

the east. It's it's it's not a small place. But what happens is April second night, there's a huge booming or some people, depending on the source, describe it as the sound of an explosion. And according to the reports, there's a lot of damage of the houses in the area, and I'm guessing this is from a concussive blast. Windows, broken windows, and evidently the power lines in the area were fried out, melted. You see it described as vaporized,

and a couple of the things. Um. Now, the thing is, unlike most of the booms that we're going to talk about, there was a something physical left behind, and that was holes in the ground. There were two holes left in the ground and they were let's see here, they were three feet across and two ft deep, which doesn't really match up with a lot of the stuff that that we get from the these skyquakes, because they yeah, I

think it, I think it is. But there's there's a lot of fantastical stuff that goes on with the story of Bell Island, but we're going to leave most of that behind because what we want to do is we want to focus on this this electromagna at a pulse theory. Parts according to the theory that this is some government body that's responsible for this, and a lot of stuff will point to, well, it was the Americans or it

was the Russians. Um, you've got to kind of take a look at what happened at the time with this and why they think it's an electromagnetic pulse. One of the things is that with an e MP there's no radiation. Typically there's no touchdown point like these holes in the ground. But by radiation, you mean there's no like atomic radiation. You just set up an a box. There's no really

high frequency radio. There's no through radiation. Yes, but but you know what I'm saying that Hiroshima, Yeah, that kind of stuff that gets into your blood and kills you. Correct, Yeah, that's where I'm getting at. And and so of course all the electronics is fried and hosed and you can't use your iPhone. Well, people say that this must have been an exp periament by a government body and one of the and again, this is a government body, whether

they did it intentionally or not. So nobody says whether they were nefariously targeting Bell Island or just accidentally touchdown there. What adds a ton of fuel to the fire, though, is the fact that two sciences from the Los Alamos National Laboratory came to Bell Island to investigate. Now you might, um, you know, I didn't write down their names, and that's my bad, but you might recognize the name Los Alamos National Laboratory because they're the ones who were involved in

the development of the first A bomb. So people point to that as, oh, well, those guys at that terrible place that did this must have done that thirty some twenty some years later, some years later, working on the next kind of big leap in warfare. Maybe, I mean

it's possible. I mean, the whole mp effect of atomic nuclear weapons was known back in those days, as far as building the really teeny little nuke that that could just that would just tune so that it would just happen more than just emit radiation, more so the explosive force and all that would Maybe they were working on something like that the time. I don't know, And I've also seen in some stuff that I've read, and this

was more you know, fictional accountings. There is the fact that you can detonate a nuke several miles up and the radiation won't get won't hurt people like it would when it detonates on the ground, but the electromagnetic pulse

will still affect electronics. Yeah, theoretically, there's the idea that they were testing something high in the atmosphere and something fell or you know, there's people who say it's some kind of lightning because in the reports of Belle Island they talk about some giant bold that it was quote unquote seen from space. I've never seen that picture, by the way. Yeah, I mean, I guess they think it's

it's a fair theory to think that. You know, if they were going to test something like this, right, they would probably be testing it over open water instead of overland. You know. They accidentally detonated it close to land and too close down low, you know, so it actually did for a bunch of stuff. It landed with some debris. I guess. I'm I can kind of get behind. I mean, obviously, like it's not my favorite, but like I also can't

talk my way into this. I can talk my way out of this way faster than I can talk myself into the problem with this as an explanation for sky quakes is it's only one incident and it is very new. Yeah, yes, but I am willing to say that it could be a good explanation for Belle Island specifically. Yeah, I could. I could see some credence there. Let's move to the next theory, though we've got meteors. This one's actually really

pretty straightforward. In the idea is that people say that what they're hearing is the sound of the sonic boom caused by a meteor entering the atmosphere. Uh. Well, you know, it turns out that evidently, typically a meteor when it when it hits the atmosphere and it starts to burn up. This happens a hundred kilometers or about sixty miles above the Earth's surface. Because sound travels slower than light, people might see a shooting star and then minutes later hear

the boom, and so they wouldn't recognize it. And if it's a day time, they're not gonna notice this bright spot in the sky. That kind of makes sense. Evidently it takes about from that distance up. It takes about five minutes for sound to reach from sixty miles up to the surface down to the surface of the Earth. So there's there's some scientific credence to that doesn't explain

why it's only coastal regions, It doesn't. You're absolutely right, And this this occurrence of meteors making noise, This is what is evidently referred to as electrophonic meteors. In other words, a meteor that is heard, like the one that that exploded over Russia year two. Yeah, you know, I mean they come in and they basically heat up and then

explode and disintegrate and create a huge boom. Well, and and that's the issue is that if it was meteors that we're hitting and exploding, even if they're not big ones, you would think that we would find some kind of debris on a more regular basis than we do unless they're hitting the water. That's but yeah, I think about it in the atmosphere and then it's just lots of little particles. Yeah. But the thing about it is is that large meteor is that explode like that make a

big noise, they're not. They're kind of rare. Yeah. And also, like we have a lot of scientists, I'm pretty sure that somebody would be like, oh, hey, because they track

it when things like hit the atmosphere. They tracked that stuff, so like it would be pretty unreasonable to think that, like, if this is such a widespread phenomenon that somebody wasn't like, oh, you know what I'll do is I'll look at all of the like pretty large meteors that are capable of making the sound and see if they like correlate or not, because that would have happened. Now. The one thing that

I do think about that. You know. The issue that we had is, well, this happens kind of around coastal areas. There's one thing that you do have to remember, which is the air above the ocean tends to be cooler than the air above land. So it could be that they're hitting that cold air front and because they're so hot, they're hitting that blast of cold air and that might be causing them to actually shatter and explode rather than just to continue to burn up as they're going through

warmer air. Does that make sense? Would be almost like a hitting a wall. I mean, I'm hearing what you're saying, but I don't think that science follows like this is just again I just suddenly I was like, oh, well, you know it is cold rare. That could be an explanation, but yeah, I don't think so. Yeah, next we have and this is what I really find funny. Yeah I do. Is it's gas venting or burping parts. It's earth farts.

Whous I am twelve years old? Again? This this does actually kind of explain possibly why this is in coastal areas. What it is is the idea is that methane gas is trapped underneath a lake or underneath the ocean, and this is caused from the bat breakdown of organic materials, whether they be plants or animals, and then at some point they seep upward and they come up in a great explosion out of the water. But why would they

explode versus just like bubbling up and leaking into the atmosh. Yeah, that's that's somebody's gotta be there to light a Yeah, that's that's the problem is that if it was gas, I mean, that would be a huge amount of gas to let's ignore the explosion for a session. That would be a huge amount of gas to cause such a giant bubble that it makes that concussive blast as it just breaks the surface of the water and then the water claps back into play. Yeah, you'd be seeing a

lot more dead aquatic light. Okay. And if it is an explosion, okay, what's causing that explosion? And why haven't there been reports of flames of any kind round the skyquake issues? Yeah. The and the thing about it is it's like when methane or oil or whatever leaks up from the ocean bottom or wherever it just sort of seeps, it doesn't usually come up and you know it doesn't come out and outflowing. Now I'm trying really hard to

not make all the fart joke. The next theory is actually really closely related to the methane gas which this actually is a theory that there's a rapid just oxygen, but a rapid air release from the collapse of underwater caves. And again this one kind of says, well, it's the noise from the cave collapsing in the air rushing out and all the debris underwater falling. But I personally, that's a lot a lot of caves collapsing underwater if they were the case. The thing about it is is caves

tend to be pretty stable. They've been there for millions of years. Yeah, I know. That's why I feel if I'm I used to do a little caving, and if I'm in a natural limestone cave, I feel far safer than I than I would feel like if I were in a tunnel like the Highway tunnel example. Yea earthquake or something like that, you know, because I mean, this thing has been through all kinds of earthquakes. So also,

nderwater caves typically don't have much air. Usually they're filling with water usually, I mean sometimes they have like a little bit of like air at the top or whatever. But and if it collapses, the air doesn't all get out at once, A lot of debris comes down in the air. The air it sort of fizzles out between all the debris. It's soda. So I think the perfect description, yeah, exactly, it would sound like soda. So the cave collapsing is

a bad thing. Yeah. Yeah. The next Yeah, the next one that we have here actually really I kind of like this one. And this is that these sounds are caused by earthquakes, and there's there's a bit of science that we need to go into to help flush this out. I'm seeing words like S wave and P wave and yeah, and I actually abbreviated a bunch of big science words. Okay, okay, earthquakes cause seismic waves, which are low frequency energy waves

that travel through the surface of the Earth. Now, seismologists, those are guys who study earthquakes. No, they measure the seismic waves. Us that twice in one sentence, and they you know, that's how they determine how strong an earthquake is. So that's when you hear the rector scale is what we hear a lot to determine or to describe the strength of an earthquake. Okay, and most people are probably

pretty familiar with that that description. Here's where it gets a little trickier is that the seismic waves are composed of actually two different kinds of waves. We've got a pea wave and an S wave, and the pea wave typically will be described it's the name is primary wave and S wave is secondary wave. The pea wave is faster, so it and it also is a compressional wave. Now, what that means is that it compresses and expands material

in the same direction that it's moving. So if you think of a slinky that's laying on the floor sideways and you shook it, how it it the it travels back and forth horizontally. Yeah, So the P wave is the one that shakes your house inside to side and causes it to follow up its foundation. Uh, somewhat yes, somewhat yes. And then we've got the S wave and that's the slower of the two. So it's the one that shows up second, because they don't always show up at the same time. That's why you can have a

difference in an earthquake and hit in stages and after shocks. Yeah, and the S wave is responsible for actually shaking the ground up and down as well as side to side in the opposite direction of the pea wave. So if the pea wave is going directly in front of you, the S wave will make the ground heave up and down and left and right of where you're you're viewing.

I see, yeah, it's uh. I think the pe waves are what they measure often for like the pre shocks, because they can you can um you can send them ahead of time, because that's the one that's easier. You can hear it coming. Well, that's and that's actually a perfect segway because it turns out the pea wave is the one that is making and carrying a lot of

the sound that has heard when earthquakes happen. So the theory goes that really low magnitude earthquakes, so we're talking on the Richter scale anywhere between one point oh to three point notes, so these are very small. You can't really feel them, and especially if they're really deep, by the time the wave reaches the surface of the earth, it's shaking power is gone. For the most part, but the sound is still traveling with it, and so that

sound is released and that's what we hear. Is this the surface of the earth and basically acting like a gigantic speaker vibrating and creating sound waves, and it's Yeah, it's rock. So the sound travels through it, and some material obviously will allow the transmission of sound better than others, I believe, Correct me if I'm wrong here, guys. Coastal areas are usually rich in things like limestone. Is that correct? Which is that not correct? I don't I don't know

if they're anymore rich than anywhere. Well, they are rich in tectonic plates. Well, but what I'm looking at is I'm looking at coastal areas usually are composed of the same general and this is a very general statement kind of rock compared to what you would find and say, the center of this country or continent. And I'm thinking that maybe part of this is that if it's a less dense rock, that sound can travel easier and not dissipate. I don't know, I might be screwing up that part

of the science. But there is actually a recorded episode of a lot of booming sounds from low magnitude earthquakes in Spokane, Washington back in two thousand and one, and a series of booming sounds were heard, and they figured out that there were a series of very very small earthquakes that happened, and they were actually really close to the Earth's surface, so the sound came through, but because they were so weak, they didn't have a lot of power to shake things up, no pun intended. So that's

that's an idea that it's it's some kind of seismic activity. Yeah, it does make sense. Coastal regions are you know, they have more earthquakes often because that's where the that's where you know, the tectonic plates are like really coming together. It's like very often where like the shelves, that's where you get the like the upheaval and the underflows. I don't know, I mean, I guess it makes sense. But also on the same token, like they tracked that stuff

pretty heavily. I mean, the fact that they could track that there were earthquakes in Spokane that caused those booms would make me think that if it was the cause of all of the other ones, that they would be able to track that there were also things there The problem is that those low magnitude earthquakes are really hard to pick out from the background noise of everything else that is going on in the surface of the earth. I mean, we make, as people a ton of noise.

Think about all of a freeway and then try and think about when you're trying to get recordings out of the ground for earthquakes, and all you hear is cars driving by. We create tons of vibrations and we create tons of noise. Plus the ocean makes a ton of noise. So those low magnitude ones, they have a really hard time picking out the small ones from just all the

other jumble of noise that's going on at the same time. Yeah, I agree, We've got another one here, which I'm sorry, I'm gonna discount this right away, and I don't mean to pooh pooh this. But the theory is military testing, and this is a lot like the Bell Island one. People are saying, well, the military is doing things and they're not telling us about it, and that's causing these noises. But my issue is again the longevity of the booms being recorded versus when we had the capability to make

this kind of sound. It's like you know, I really think that these things are probably caused by a whole lot of different causes. Probably some of them are sonic booms, some of them are artillery or explosions of people mining dynamite, you know, using dynamite to blast out quarries. Yeah, but but I know that this can't be what caused this. When the original natives of this country, the US, heard this noise, I know, it was not the US military

setting off some secret weapon. Now, and there were a bunch of white people over there doing some mining you know here, you know, So yeah, so military, Okay, it could account for a very very peeny percentage, but that's all I'll give it. Uh. Next, we have and this is actually a theory that really only comes up in one area, but that is the continental shelf falling off, which is actually something that Devon just touched on a little bit. But this only happens in the South Atlantic.

This theory only comes from the South Atlantic region of the United States. And what it says, in its simplest form, is that we've got tectonic planes that are heaving over each other and diving under and that the continental shelf is essentially sloughing off and breaking off as it's you know, being pushed under. I don't like it. No, I don't like I mean anything that that would create that kind of clear noise would also be creating huge tsunamis and

you know all of other stuff. And we're not saying some sonamis. The continental shelf isn't falling off in the little middle of Lake Michigan, for instance. Well, there might be like a little Michigan shelf that's falling off. That's probably the little Michigan shelfgan Okay. Theories, Yeah, absolutely, And I got to tell you this last, this one that we're about to go into, is probably my favorite theory, and that is that this is caused by meteorological events.

That the mouthful of the word it is. Though the folks at home don't know what I said. It's seven times before I got right. Um, that's what happens when you're the editor. It really is. Here's what's going on. And this is based on what's called inversion or atmospheric inversion. Heat rises. We know that so as he rises, it warms the air, so the warm of the earth, surface of the earth is warmer, and as it goes up, it cools until we get to the top of the

atmosphere out in the ocean. This would hold true unless we get an upwelling of cold water because currents cause up wells, and so they push tons and tons of cold water towards the surface, and that can cool that air in that region. So if you think about the way the air is, and let's just break this down into three layers from the surface of the earth. So we've got the bottom layer, the middle layer, which is slightly cooler, and the top layer that goes to the

edge of our atmosphere. That's the coldest with me so far. Okay, Now, if we get a cold air inversion because of that, that cold air pushes up as it comes inland, it kind of pushes itself a bit above and we get a cold warm cold So it's cold air on the bottom, warmer air in the middle, and then colder air on the top, and it it kind of creates a air shelf. What happens is sound travels typically farther in a cold environment.

So if we have this happen and out at sea, several miles out at sea, there's a thunderstorm, people in the area go, wow, it's kind of a cold day. It's clear blue skuys, but it's chilly because they don't realize that, you know, let's say twenty miles up the air is actually warmer than where they're at, or it's warmer than it should be than. We've got a storm out at sea and it's a thunderstorm. That sound from

the thunder is going to ricochet. Goes through a cold air tunnel, goes through a colder it hits the surface of the water, it bounces up, it hits that kind of shelf barrier between the coal low area and the warm middle area, and bounces back down to the earth. It's kind of like skipping that we talked about with

Lost Boi Larry, with how radio frequencies skip it. It's actually a phenomenon that the experience with sonar and underseas you get because thermal layers, a thermal layer, which is a temperature gradient, sudden change, low frequency sounds can travel

hundreds of miles. So yeah, and so that it bounces back and forth right and so that that thunder would bounce back and forth the sound of the thunder, and so it comes inland where it's a beautiful blue sky day and there's this sudden crack and raging noise, which, if you think about the clip that we played, kind of sounds like thunder. Yeah. I guess the only problem I would have with this is that it seems like the sound would kind of deteriorate over there. And I

don't know if that's true or not. I don't know if it does or not. But lived in the Midwest for all a while, and they have some pretty rip roaring thunderstorms out there, and yeah, still, you know, I don't know that I have ever heard thunder that is like that percussive that sets car alarms off like crazy. I mean, yeah, every once in a while. But for it to be coming from like twenty miles away out sea or whatever and be traveling to still be that percussive,

to be like that powerful seems counterintutive to me. And

I don't totally you know, I'm not a scientist. I don't have the science behind it, but that it seems like at least the percussive quality of it would deteriorate a little bit that it wouldn't Beever, have you ever been in your house and the thunderstorm is directly above you and it's rattling the windows, or if you've been on a mountain so you're high up and a giant thunderclap goes off, it's freaking out and I don't but I don't know if it, you know, sets off car

alarms like that or if it, uh, you know that was all the car alarms right, well, if you're if you're at grounds, are on the lightning storm where i've which I have been in, Uh yeah, the boom is tremendous and that was set off. But yeah, again from a distance to say it really is. I mean that video that was always we heard the car alarms going off. But the guy that was making the video maybe he his friends were throwing rocks in all the cars in

the neighborhood. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know. The other thing is that when we listen to that video earlier and we keep talking about this like, I don't know that it would be that percussive. It's also I know it doesn't it really sound like thunder and it sounds that, you know. Interestingly, if you if you listen to the two blasts here, they're remarkably consistent. It's it's basically it's three quick explosions and you know, thunders usually like it's

a little more random. Yeah, of course, you know this particular video, I mean it not it isn't necessarily one of these sky booms or whatever we're calling them sky booms. It would have sounded to me like it was three quick explosions. It sounded to be like u uh an M sixteen with a three round burst select or activated.

It does sound like a gun, very specific. No, I mean, it could say, I mean, I've you know, I've I've lived in rural areas where they were setting off explosive and it does kind of sound like an explosion literally, like an explosive detonating. Yeah, so you know, that could be an explanation, and that would explain why the sound is so loud and so clear. But again the problem is why is it only in these areas and are they doing something off the coast with explosives that people

don't realize there's explosions going on everywhere. But yeah, again, this one sounded to me like a three round burst from from them, and you know, and it's it's possible that the other ones sound different, but it's yeah, we've only got the I mean there's there's a number of

videos out there that you can track down. I mean I only pulled one in and the problem is that they're all outside with you know, the wind and the dogs in the cars, and it's a cell phone or a video camera, so it's it's hard to get that noise very clear and exact. Yeah. Yeah, well, I mean that the netance. You know, most often when they happened, you just got a single boom, right, Not always there's multiples like what we've I've read about, you know, several

little rows. So it's not as if it's like I said in the meeting, it's not always just one, can be several of them. Yeah, kind of lens creatings to the whole theory that it's a thunderstorm far away that sounds just being channeled. Yeah, and that's and then that's honestly, that's that's my favorite one. That The last theory that we've got I'm even worse on than the military testing is people say, well, it was a gun, like Joe just said it, Oh, somebody was shooting a gun, and

guns long guns, big guns. Uh, there's still the problem of time. You haven't always been able to make a that loud of a concussive sound, So that to me seems too simple, and I just I kind of let it go right at you know, right after reading about Yeah, I know it is. I think that again, as I said earlier, I think it's these things probably come from a multiple set of sources. And I'm laking the I

agree with you. I'm liking the whole idea of the sound channel being converted by the inversion layer, and you know, then it's being sort of funneled towards the coastline from a distant storm. That's and that probably is responsible for some of that. And I also agree that it's that, And I think part of it probably is, you know, the earthquake theory. There are small, minor earthquakes that channel that sound, and I think that's possibly some of it

as well. Now, why it's only heard in coastal regions, it's not really explained very well in this But you know, that's that's the other one that I kind of I kind of give stock to. Yeah, and then there could be a couple of occasional random ones, could be medias, could be sonic booms. Yeah, you know, I think I think a nice mix of all of the theories is probably the best explanation for this one. Yeah, sweet, all right, well that is the theories that we've got. I think

we've kind of all weighed enough on that. I don't think we need to beat that anymore. Uh. If you have any thoughts of your own, you can always tell us about them. You could send us an email.
