The American southwest is full of deserts If you ever go there, you might get to see a very strange event
We are talking something called the sailing stones
Sometimes, stones in the southwestern desert move by themselves Wind doesn’t seem to push them People and animals don’t touch them However, these stones still move Sometimes they travel more than a
hundred meters They always leave a trail in the sand behind them This is useful because we can look at the
Trang 4trail and figure out how far a stone has moved.
How is this possible? How can stones move all by themselves? Scientists have been studying this for years People have offered all kinds of theories One of the earliest theories was that wind pushes the stones That theory isn’t correct, because some of the stones weigh more than 300 kilograms When it seemed like there was no logical explanation for the sailing stones, people started coming up with crazier ideas Some people said that aliens were moving the stones, and others said that clever people were playing a joke
Finally, in 2013, a scientist came up with an explanation for the sailing stones This scientist normally studies weather on other planets, and when he heard about the sailing stones, he became interested in them
He found out that ice forms on the bottom of the stones When that happens, even a very light wind can push
the stone for long distances
To prove his theory, the scientist did an experiment He put a rock in his freezer and let some ice form on
it Then, he put sand and a little water in a tray Finally, he put his frozen rock on top of the sand When he blew on the rock, it moved Even when he blew very gently, he had no problems moving the rock
Here is something interesting about the sailing stones Curious people visit the desert in the southwest to
see them A lot of those people don’t like to hear the scientific explanation for the sailing stones Many people prefer to feel that the stones are still a mystery
