All You Need To Know About “The Centre Of The Universe” Which Is Still A Mystery

The “Center of the Universe” is a little-known mysterious acoustic phenomenon. The Center of the Universe is in the Brady Arts District, located on the north side of downtown. No one has figured out exactly what it is and why it does what it doesn’t even the architect who drew up the plans and babied its construction

Something out of the ordinary is going on in this city, an anomaly that’s fun to speculate about and fascinating thing. The ‘Center of the Universe’ is a small circle made up of concrete within an even bigger circle made up of 13 bricks. Yes, that’s actually it is a small circle of about 30 inches that combined with the 13-brick outer circle, adds up to 8 feet in diameter.

Mystery Of Centre Of The Universe:

The center itself is a worn concrete circle, 30 inches in diameter, that’s in the middle of a 13-row circle of bricks eight feet in diameter. The circle was created in the ’80s when the span of the bridge had to be rebuilt after a fire.

The significance of “The Centre Of The Universe” is when someone stands in the center of the circle, facing any direction, and makes a noise, that noise is echoed back several times louder than it was made.

Anyone standing outside the circle won’t be able to hear anything. It’s only the person standing inside the concrete circle who will hear the echo. If you try talking to a person while standing outside the concrete circle, the voice heard will be distorted and unclear.

Facts About Centre Of The Universe:

One of them being that the distortion of the sound is a result of parabolic reflectivity of the circular planter walls that partly surround the circle. However, this hasn’t been confirmed. Defying all the laws of Physics when it comes to sound and reflection, this specific point has baffled everyone to such an extent that till date, no one has been able to put the finger on the reason for why it does what it does.

Those who have seen it will know that it isn’t much to look at, but it is something that will blow your mind once you get to know the reason behind the mystery. But, till now, there has been no clear explanation of what’s causing the occurrence.
