There’s A Giant Magnet In Space Pulling Our Galaxy Closer To The Zone Of Avoidance, But No One Knows How To Explain It
An immense gravitational anomaly, dubbed the Great Attractor, is pulling the Milky Way and thousands of other galaxies toward a specific point in intergalactic space. Our entire local supercluster is hurtling in that direction at a speed of more than two million kilometers per hour. A primary challenge in identifying the source of this force is its position directly behind the gas and dust of our own galactic plane, an area known as the Zone of Avoidance, which blocks most observation. Although later surveys using X-ray and radio wavelengths have revealed massive galaxy clusters in that region, their combined mass does not seem sufficient to fully explain the tremendous gravitational pull being exerted on our corner of the universe.
On Australia Day in 1966, the three young Beaumont siblings took a five-minute bus ride to Glenelg Beach in South Australia and never returned home. Numerous credible witnesses reported seeing the children playing comfortably throughout the day with a tall, blond man. The strangeness of the situation was compounded when the eldest child, Jane, was seen buying snacks with a one-pound note, a denomination of currency her parents had not given them. In the mid-afternoon, a trusted local postman saw the three siblings walking alone and seemingly happy away from the beach, after which the trail went completely cold. A massive police investigation turned up no definitive trace of the children, leaving their ultimate fate one of Australia’s biggest mysteries.
