DownloadThe Bimini Road is a series of large,
oblong stones half-buried along the coast of a small island in the Bahamas.

they’re manmade, and possibly even the remains of the lost city of Atlantis.
Sadly, we’re pretty sure that’s not the case.
But the scientific explanation for how these manufactured-looking rocks formed is just as cool!
And while they’re almost certainly natural, they serve an important purpose.
So scientists are looking into how to recreate them all over the world.
