About the Exhibition

Into the Triangle

Between Miami, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico lies a stretch of ocean that has swallowed ships and aircraft without explanation — or so the story goes. The Bermuda Triangle is one of the 20th century's most tenacious myths, born from real disappearances and extraordinary embellishment.

This exhibition traces the full arc of the Triangle's story: from the real losses of Flight 19 and the USS Cyclops, through the books and documentaries that turned incidents into legend, to the scientific explanations that followed — and why none quite killed the mystery.
