Mysterious floating island with trees emerges and disappears in Canada
A large island covered in trees unexpectedly surfaced in a Canadian reservoir, only to vanish a few weeks afterward. Satellite photos taken between July 20 and 21 verified that the object was indeed floating, yet it was no longer visible in satellite imagery by August 5. People on social media speculated that the mass might have formed because aspen tree root systems stayed linked together, allowing the island to float.
