View Full Version : Mysteriously submerged "UFO" cripples nearby electronics and impersonates the Millenn

The mysterious, UFO-like object at the bottom of the Baltic Sea appears to be emitting some kind of localized EMP.

Back in the summer of 2011, explorers discovered a large, disc-like object lying 285 feet below the surface of the Baltic Sea. It was estimated to be about 20 meters in diameter, with a 200 meter flattened "trail" behind it, as though it had crashed and ground to a halt, and looked like nothing so much as the Millennium Falcon come to grief. Nobody knows what it is, but further investigation has revealed some rather baffling weirdness.

The object appears to be giving off some kind of interference that cripples nearby electronic devices. "Anything electric out there - and the satellite phone as well - stopped working when we were above the object," said Diver Stefan Hoberborn of the Ocean X team that initially discovered the disc and is now conducting further exploration. "And then we got away about 200 meters and it turned on again, and when we got back over the object it didn't work."

The team described the object as similar to "a huge mushroom, rising 3-4 meters from the seabed, with rounded sides and rugged edges." It has an egg-shaped hole at the top that leads inside, as well as "strange stone circle formations" that resemble "small fireplaces."

"We have experienced things that I really couldn't imagine and I have been the team's biggest skeptic regarding these different kind of theories," said Ocean X founder Peter Lindberg. "I was kind of prepared just to find a stone or cliff or outcrop or pile of mud but it was nothing like that, so for me it has been a missing experience I must say."

"I can't explain what we saw, and I went down there to answer questions, but I came up with even more questions," added Hogeborn.

The process of discovering what this thing actually is has been a slow one, due to both weather issues and, more importantly, a lack of funding. Another dive is scheduled "in the coming weeks," however, which may shed more light on its true nature.

I'm not entirely sure what to say on the matter other than... ALIENS! We're all doomed! Of course if anyone wants to come up with something a bit more rational you're more than welcome.

why don't they look inside it? oh wait, noo. then it couldn't be a UFO if no aliens or alien tech was found in it. (well, TECHNICALLY it can but i'm talking extra terrestrial.)

VITAL detail left out in the article :(

EDIT: IF it was of actual importance, i'm sure the government would have taken over already too. :(

Actually, if you read it, it explains that bad weather and a lack of funding is preventing them from reaching it and another dive is scheduled. Read it properly before you post.

And why would the government get involved? They don't even know what it is yet.

Nah, the aliens will save us from the zombies! But seriously, I think that if it was anything important governments would have grabbed it first. 1) they have radar and satellites EVERYWHERE 2) I'm pretty sure every government out there is keeping an eye out for anything alien. They don't want to start a panic when people hear there are aliens and plus every government is going to want the alien tech to make weapons. And 3) they have tons of money and resources to recover stuff and 285 feet isn't that deep.

If its stopping electronics from working, how are they going to get a submarine down there?

For what it's worth, it could be a hoax of some sort, or perhaps a social experiment. All you have to do is make a large metal object with an EMP device inside, and a fuel source.

Uh oh, we're screwed by the aliens now.

Honestly, I don't know what to think. Too bad it can't be photographed because I would love to see some pictures. You know the internet slang all too well: "pics or it dint happn"

It's not the best picture. But yea, it is impersonating the Millennium Falcon a bit isn't it?
