Mystery of Earth's 'hum' heard by millions SOLVED by researchers – and it's NOT aliens
IT IS the unexplained buzzing noise that has fed suspicions of an alien invasion or UFO activity in the skies.
IT IS the unexplained buzzing noise that has fed suspicions of an alien invasion or UFO activity in the skies.
But the mystery of a bizarre drone that has plagued millions of people around the world could finally be solved, scientists believe.
‘The Hum’ – as it is known – can be heard by some more than others and has been blamed for pushing people to the brink of madness with sleepless nights and a constant ringing in the ears.
Some thought it was the fault of gas pipes or power lines, but experts now believe the elusive buzzing is down to “ocean waves”.
Researchers say currents in the sea cause the Earth to vibrate subtly as they shift across its surface, creating “microseismic” activity that elicits a “ring”.
The trio of French academics published their findings in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.
“I think our result is an important step in the transformation of mysterious noise into an understood signal,” Mr Ardhuin said.
The strange noise, which only affects one in 50 people – or two per cent of the world’s population – was first reported in the 1970s.

Sounds in Terrace BC, Canada from today (May 7th).

A few years ago they said it was a grinder. What do you think?
heyenne, WY (KGWN)- The streets of Cheyenne are usually pretty quiet, nothing out of the ordinary, nothing paranormal, until late Saturday night.
"I was called by the dispatch center with a siren like noise about 11:30 at night," said Rob Cleveland, the director of the Laramie County Emergency Management Agency
A sound rang through the city that can best be described as a siren noise.
"I had them check the siren system that we control that the dispatch center uses to see if there were any alerts, and they showed no alerts," said Cleveland.
So we began an investigation, researchingand making calls to the big organizations in town.
We reached out to FE Warren, the Air National Guard, Holly Frontier, and Emergency Management Services here in Cheyenne and got the same answer from everyone.
"It was not our system that made the noise," said Cleveland.
We then turned to Facebook and heard from more than 100 people who heard the noise.
From the east side to the south side, and even downtown, it was heard throughout the city.
Union Pacific was our last local reach as many people believed it could have been train emergency breaks, but they responded with no recorded incidents that night.
But the search didn't stop there. People all over the world have been hearing these noises and posting videos online
Suggesting everything from religious theories to geographical ones, and yet the head of the geology department a the University of Wyoming had no answer.
So it's up for you to decide, is it just train brakes? Or could something more paranormal be in the skies above Cheyenne?
