In April 1933, the legend of the Loch Ness Monster took root through the first major historical sighting. Tales of a creature inhabiting the waters of that Scottish lake dated back to the Middle Ages, but it wasn't until that moment that the craze for what was affectionately named "Nessie" became a mass phenomenon. This sparked a series of sightings by witnesses claiming to glimpse a being hidden in Loch Ness.
Over time, the legend grew stronger and stronger. Supposed images, like the famous "surgeon's photograph," videos, and footage of questionable quality, and even hoaxes made the Loch Ness Monster a tourist attraction. An international phenomenon where myth and reality blended into what seemed to be a mystery destined to remain unsolved.
Over the decades, projects like the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau and scientific expeditions like Deepscan tried to find evidence of Nessie's existence, always reaching dead ends. However, despite ruling out that Loch Ness was inhabited by a prehistoric creature as described by the press since the 1930s, science, after a long time rejecting any connection to these tales, wanted to have the final word.
In 2018, scientists from the University of Otago in New Zealand announced they would conduct the most comprehensive investigation into the Loch Ness mystery in history. They would survey its waters in search of the DNA of the animals present. If Nessie was there, we were going to find it. This is the story of the legend of the Loch Ness Monster.
