The Eye: Argentina's enigmatic revolving island
Between Buonos Aires and Campana, in Argentina's Parana river delta, is the small and enigmatic islet known as The Eye. It is a narrow strip of land that is a perfect 120-meter circle, a shape that revolves around itself. It floats in a pool that is entirely unique to the area, floating between the clear and frozen waters. This strange occurrence is so flawless that it almost seems manufactured.
Scientists explain the island's odd rotation around its axis by the existence of massive natural wells that produce streams of water that are capable of moving the island. The rotating eye appears to collide with the surrounding soil, providing it the necessary impetus, causing the muddy area to separate and erode. The rotation's scientific basis is disputed by others, who assert that it is a'supernatural' occurrence connected to extraterrestrial life rather than a natural phenomena.
The Argentine director Sergio Neuspiller found The Eye while looking for a location to shoot a movie on the paranormal. The location provided the ideal backdrop right away, but when the director went back to evaluate it, he realized that the island had moved. As a result, he made the decision to dig deeper and forgo the film in favor of a scientific documentary. By entering "El Ojo" at these coordinates: 34 ° 15'07.8? S 58 ° 49'47.4? W, the phenomena can be seen in Google Earth satellite photographs taken at various periods.
