Mysteries
Questions nobody has fully answered, plus a few solved ones we learn from.
Every mystery we are tracking. Use the buttons to show only one kind. "Solved" ones stay on the list on purpose: they show us what a real answer looks like, so we can tell a good hunch from a coincidence.
Words we use: Mystery A question nobody has answered yet. Clue from people Something people wrote down or told long ago: a chronicle, a diary, a story, a carving. Clue from nature Something nature recorded by itself: tree rings, ice, rock layers, or the leftovers of an exploded star. Hunch Our guess that a clue from people and a clue from nature are about the same event. Book or paper Where we read it, so anyone can check our work. Step Something we did, in the order we did it.
