It was the summer of 1949. Young geologist Vadim Kolpakov was on a mission to northern Russia in the Irkutsk region. His job was to draw a geological map of the area. While on duty, he came across something so mysterious and remarkable, it’d continue to puzzle experts decades later… ooh, what could it be? Though it’s now more famous as the Patomskiy Crater, locals had dubbed it Fire Eagle Nest, probably because it looks like a giant bird nest sitting on the hill. It rises 130 ft in the air, half as tall as a Giant Sequoia. The cone-like structure’s base has a diameter of 520 ft, almost as wide as the Seattle Space Needle is tall. But what was hiding inside would be the most surprising and baffling discovery! Let's find out more about one of the most mysterious places in the world? #brightside Preview photo credit:
