Loch Ness is a large lake in northern Scotland. It is surrounded by rolling green hills and a century-old mystery. The first modern reports
of the Loch Ness Monster( believed to be an underwater sea
creature) came in the 1930s, and scientists wanted to solve
the mystery right away. But the mystery of Loch Ness Lake
remains the same and the Loch Ness Monster is still
unidentified. Small water vessels with sonar rays attached
try to find the creature, but none have succeeded. A
scientist named Robert Rines has made an underwater camera
that has managed to take a picture of something but they
don't know whether it is the Loch Ness Monster or not.
Scottish folklore is full of stories of mischievous water
spirits called
"Kelpies". Dan Taylor has developed a submersible specialized for the depths of Loch Ness Lake. It has special cameras to see into the loch's murky depths. The loch is 4 mi. lenghtwise and can reach 1 1/2 mi. in width. At some places it is 4 mi. deep. That's a lot of water to search for such a reclusive creature. |
