The Bloop Sound

In 1997, a hydrophone (underwater microphone) in the Pacific Ocean detected a loud, ultra-low frequency sound. The sound, which was dubbed the "Bloop," was so loud that it could be heard over 3,000 miles away.

Scientists have tried to identify the source of the Bloop sound, but they have been unable to do so. Some have speculated that it could have been the sound of a giant squid, a large ice mass breaking off of a glacier, or even a volcanic eruption. But there is no definitive answer.

The Bloop sound remains one of the most mysterious sounds ever recorded in the ocean. It is a reminder that there is still much that we don't know about the deep sea.
