Thread: Saucer shaped "object" found in Baltic sea

Fun story about finding what is probably some odd geological formation.

...., the deep-sea salvage company Ocean Explorer has discovered a large, bizarrely shaped object on the seabed....
...What they found appears to be a disc-shaped object roughly 180-feet in diameter with a rigid tail that extends another 1,200 or so feet....

Amazing. Lenticular clouds are sometimes mistaken for UFOs, so there is a precedent for this sort of shape to occur naturally. Maybe intrusion of magma into sedimentary rock layers which then weather away. Just a guess. Fun story.

That was a fascinating story alright, and it will certainly be interesting to see what comes of it.

The Ocean Explorer
Here is an update from last week. (Then mysterious silence. )

Baa...hoping they'd actually have something.

Anybody remember the ship from Chriton's book/movie "Sphere"?

I now include a famous and well known Meteor Wayne quote:

Ocean Explorer smells of money grubbing. Read their website, its all about how you should invest in them so as to be part of the great discovery. Not at all a sober scientific attitude. Color me very scepticle.
