#73With our luck in 2020, it just might be Cthulhu's heartbeat.
26 is certainly the most famous kaballistic number. As the gematria of the word "God" in hebrew https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gematria
When I looked this place up, there’s also a massive obelisk shaped pillar. This feels like a conspiracy theorists dream: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_C%C3%A3o_Grande?wprov=sft...

#74It would be great to see this written into something like a Godzilla film as a sleeping monsters heart beat.

#75Never heard of this, so I had to do some digging. My money is on this being an ocean wave phenomenon. The Gulf of Guinea, specifically the Bight of Bonny, is up to ~20,000ft deep. Average ocean waves have a period less than 15s and the average ocean depth of the Atlantic is ~11,000ft. Oddly similar ratios! So it's plausible this 26s wave period is caused by the increase in depth [0]. The abnormally large seismic ampl…
The same effects that cause a tone when blowing across a bottle rim might cause a vibration like this when an ocean current moves over a deep trench.

#76Funnily enough, it's also close to the 0,0 GPS coordinates https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/0°00'00.0"N+0°00'00.0"E
0°00'00.0"N+0°00'00.0"E Funny how it's N+E, not S+W
Why? The natural “up” direction is north, and east goes great with it like that’s where the sun comes up and also arrows pointing to N and E look like the coordinate axes in a default oriented graph.

Wasn't the infamous natural nuclear reactor near 0,0? A seam of fissionable minerals that millions of years ago would periodically fill with water, heat up, boil it off, cool down, rinse, repeat -- and that sounds an awful lot like what's happening here. EDIT: It was at -1.5780591, 13.

...at least at the surface.

My head canon, it’s Lavos.

#79I thing J. J. Abrams is behind it.

#80I see this phenomenon is called "seismic noise" in a couple places, but that can't be right; noise is by definition irregular (occurring at uneven or varying rates or intervals).
This is actually a signal of something, we just don't know what.
