What Is Something That Has Not Yet Been Fully Explained by Science?

Near-death experiences and life after death are phenomena that science has not fully explained. People who have near-death experiences sometimes report mystical experiences like being in a tunnel of light or reunited with loved ones, which could suggest an existence beyond death. However, skeptics argue these experiences can be explained as natural hallucinations of a traumatized brain. A 2015 study found the dying heart sends scrambled signals to the brain that could cause near-death experiences.

What is something that has not yet been fully explained by Science?

There a lot of things that we can't explain and even the scientists can't figure out nor
explain the facts behind everything. Unexplained phenomena are all around us such as Near-
Death Experiences and Life after Death. According to Live Science Staff (2016), People who
were once near death have sometimes reported various mystical experiences (such as going
into a tunnel and emerging in a light, being reunited with loved ones, a sense of peace, etc.)
that may suggest an existence beyond the grave. While such experiences are profound, no one
has returned with proof or verifiable information from "beyond the grave." Skeptics suggest
that the experiences are explainable as natural and predictable hallucinations of a traumatized
brain. A study of people in cardiac arrest in 2015 found that when the heart is dying, it gets
peppered by signals from the brain, which tries to stay active. The scramble of signals might be
responsible for near-death experiences, researchers figure.
