Caves SIAGNE

Caves SIAGNE
The most famous of suburban limestone caves of artificial origin, located on the steep left bank of the river near the village of Pakhra Novlenskie settlements. The most common occurrence of the caves dates back to XVIII century, around the time production began here a white stone for the construction of fortresses, churches and chapels, 30 years of the twentieth century, the local rock band went on to strengthen the Domodedovo airport, after which production was shut down.

In the 60 years the total length of the intricate network, according to some estimates, more than 90 km, however, after the cave was closed in 1969 (the official reason - missing child in a cave), Cave bezhoznaya managed to partially collapse. According to the measurements in 1996, the cave, located at a depth of 25-30 m, has a lot of drifts height 0,4-3,5 m, total length of 27.5 km (some say only a more modest length of 11 km.)

Most of the drifts are now numbered and mapped, many of the sites have their own, sometimes strange ("Stop the car first," "Elevator", "SS-20"), sometimes fabulous ("Three Little Pigs"), sometimes romantic, sometimes simply indecent names ... In 1988, the Moscow students newly unearthed one of the three entrances of former - Feline hole and they are from that moment began to monitor the condition of the arches and, where possible, separate entrances littered. "Regulars" came to be called a systems analyst, and cave, respectively, the system, implying that not only moves the system as a special system of traditions, behavior, morals, etc.

In fact, the systems analyst is gradually transformed in a single within the youth. Part of system designers is both parties to the PCB (Club amateur song). Every second Sunday of September is also celebrates the opening of the cave and the next season, during which time under the ground is going to hundreds of cave explorers and lovers of art song.

However, a considerable part of the cavers did not share the philosophical views of administrators and visited by the system just for the thrill, speleological training, or as in the case of the Expeditionary Force, "MAI-Kosmopoisk" - to conduct experiments on the orientation and vremyavospriyatiyu people in extreme situations. In experiments in 1996 involved 31 volunteers at the same time, and in July 1997 - 54 people have!

In the language of science, these experiments allowed us to simulate and make people burst of psychic super-powers, which are usually manifested in the deadly extreme situations (though the people and thought it was an extreme situation, especially when the newcomers announced: "Alas, no going back, filled up the output "). That's where the people and "manifest": someone panicked, but some began to create a really wonders.

The main thing is that almost all increase dramatically with all the known human senses 7, including a sense of balance and magnetically sensitive crystals in the cortex of the brain responsible for orientation. Few had heard about the opening of the seventh sense, not everyone knows that with sufficient training can be guided along the magnetic field of the Earth, but in a cave "suddenly" This ability makes itself felt.

Thus, when the question of the direction of his house about half of all subjects showed the direction, not much different from the real bearing on your house ... Other experiments were SIAGNE vremyavospriyatiya associated with the study in humans. Here too there were obscure to psychologists things, when all with one voice declared that there were five or six hours, although after the descent into the belly of a cave was actually half an hour ago ...

Despite the fairly large number of visits to the cave is quite small accidents. The last death of an amateur caver occurred in 1991, unhappy with the collapsed ceiling filled up with stones. From time to time lost in a cave or a novice cavers podvypimshie unfortunate, however, often dispenses with a tragedy.

Usually a lost looking for the first, who will see in the magazine hits record "so and so was then entered, was then going to go" and did not find a mark on a timely exit. But sometimes inexperienced "kettles" wander so far away that their searches by amateur cavers to nothing lead. Thus, in January 1998 and the systems analyst is not able to find a friend and get lost in the panic, had to turn to the Emergency Situations Ministry salvors. Professional rescuers only on the third day of searching found a white as the death of the fugitive in one of the most remote slaboissledovannyh drifts ...

In addition to "normal" for the Russian cave attributes in the form of ghosts, "White" and "Black" cavers, SIAGNE have a number of features. For example, almost syurealisticheskie gallery, painted with mythical paintings and illustrations in the spirit of the novel "The Master and Margarita". Overgrown with fame and the legends and the local Ultra-and long enough (will not find it) "pike hole," which, according to local legend, restores all propolzshih safely on it's own memory of the birth.

Somewhere in the center of the cave you may well wonder when you see a strange stone building - in fact it is the "TV Stone Age" with the antennas from the bones. But the biggest surprise is waiting for a beginner in the central roadway, the first acquaintance with the surprise ending is usually a cry of horror or screaming friendly. Here, on a large limestone rock is a local deity - not entirely complete skeleton of Aristarchus, around which the students, which can not be called superstitious, neatly folded brought "gifts".

How and under what circumstances got this human skeleton under the earth - this is no reliable information, and although you will probably tell you a couple of heartbreaking stories, the truth is impossible to ascertain. Sometime near the darkened from time to time Aristarchus was lying by his friend (or girlfriend?) - Relative newcomer, has little white skeleton. In the summer of 1997 he disappeared in an unknown direction. Some say that the skeleton, "he climbed to the surface in a terrible storm on Friday night," while others argue that "the skeleton was once lost caver was identified and buried with full honors." But the truth may be more prosaic - most likely skeleton "presentation" Satanists stole for sale ...

Finally, the most mysterious and unexplored until the end is right to be called the grotto "Milky Way", which had been in it is credited with the most incredible and magical properties. Ceiling material that reflects light of a lantern with thousands of sequins (and even some time fosforetsiruyuschim glows in the dark light) does create a mood and feeling of the sublime beauty of an extraterrestrial from the audience.

Among the many epithets that are gifts to this one of the most inaccessible caves are most common statement: "Mlechnik - SIAGNE the temple," "a place of discussions with the Universal Mind," "a bridge to other worlds" and "Mlechnik - a room of miracles"(similar to a room in the film "Stalker"). However, the majority have been in "Milky Way" argues that the conventional definition in relation to this site are not suitable, and the mystery of his will never be disclosed.

One would think that if you have one heart's desire - worth a try. Suddenly you get? .. But do not take chances without an escort, or, in half an hour wandering through the endless maze you will have only one heart's desire - as soon as possible to get to the light of God!
