What are Natural Made Wonders?

A lot of wonders that happen in nature have been considered as some supernatural phenomenon in the past ages. But since the advent of science and understanding of the universe, these phenomena have been labeled as natural made wonders. Since they have a scientific explanation but happen so rarely, this title suits them best. Here are some of the astounding phenomenon that happens in nature due to bizarre scientific reasons.

Volcanoes are still labeled as unpredictable to this day because no one knows when one will erupt. That leaves a haunting feeling to people living near one because at any second of any day the volcano can erupt and destroy the homes and lives of everyone near it. Volcanic lightning is a creepy occurrence that happens when there is a mixture of charged particles and lightning when there is an eruption of a volcano. Even though it is a sight to see, it is a sight that sends shivers down anyone’s spine.

Mother Nature is indeed a force to be reckoned with, but, at the same time, it gives off such majestic looks that one ceases to remain oblivious of the beauty of nature. With monstrous occurrences like volcanoes, sandstorms, The Catatumbo Lightning to harmless white rainbows and bio-luminescent algae, every phenomenon out there is as beautiful as heaven itself. There are various examples of passionate researchers who lost their lives while getting too close to the beauty they perceived in the destructive portent of Mother Nature.

People have lost lives while getting too close to volcanoes, getting inside a massive thunderstorm, falling inside a volcano. It is human nature to be so passionate that curiosity overcomes their feeling of fear and as a result, they either gain great knowledge or simply lose their lives. There are countless natural man-made wonders that are yet to be uncovered and relished by those who have the eyes to perceive the beauty.
