Why is Earth pulsating every 26 seconds, and why can’t scientists explain it after 60 years? This is an enigma wrapped in a periodically predictable mystery motion. It could be a harmonic phenomenon, a regular seismic chirp caused by the sun’s energy, or a beacon drawing scientists to its source to begin a treasure hunt.
➡ The world is weird. We'll show you how it works.
In the early 1960s, a geologist named Jack Oliver first documented the pulse, also known as a "microseism," according to Discover. Oliver, who worked at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory at the time, heard the noise, but didn't have the advanced instruments seismologists have now at his disposal.
Since then, scientists have spent a lot of time listening to the pulse and even finding out where it comes from: “a part of the Gulf of Guinea called the Bight of Bonny,” Discover says.
Came across a YT on it at one time several years ago.
Some people could hear it, others not. When mentioned it to a relative, was asked if I could hear dog whistles, and sometimes, yes.
It is a very high-pitched frequency I have been hearing on and off since about 2013, at first only once in a while, and up to recently almost all of the time as a background noise. No, it is not tinnitus.
The only mention I can find of it now is as a “ghost” frequency of paranormals, and have no interest in listening to familiar spirits, thanks.
Bad bearing?
Not Swiss OTH radar?
I wish I could pulsate every 26 seconds!
In March of 1994 I experienced something like the Taos Hum but it was an inaudible vibration. Lived in SE Michigan at the time, and years later found a cluster of Western Lake Erie hum reports. I only called it the Taos Hum because that is all I had ever heard of when internet research became available. If I described how it happened and then persisted, I’d be laughed off the page, even here.
Not by me! I want to hear you story!
Colin Ferguson?
Interesting. Thanks.
Nope. 😁
50 replies and nobody has mentioned the aliens living underground yet? We’re slipping, people. We’re slipping.
Russian woodpecker sounds like Russian PPM system or something similar - usually multi-channel with at least 4 channels and being one encrypted voice
Here you go.

One of many “number stations” passing directions for covert operatives used by a number of countries since WWII.
All I know is, I hated it.
The hum has been heard by millions of people, so no laughed off page. There is never a specific spot or direction, but you must be in a quiet environment to hear it - no road noise or other ambient sounds - indoor or outdoor, makes no difference.
Its possible it is some sort of piezoelectric phenomenon - quartz stone under pressure gives off clouds of ions which are electrically charged and there might be some sort of sound associated with this which we hear as a hum (just speculation the last bit).
All I know is, I hated it.

You’d hate it even more, if as part of your work day, you had to listen to it wearing headphones, while recording it, listening to the voice channels and transcribing the traffic.
Bonnie bit ya!
? Maybe it’s a well timed Basketball dribble ?
... and had a microseism...
Dynamo Hummm???
