Just stumbled across a reference to this: Baltic Sea anomaly - Wikipedia
Don’t know how accurate any of these images are:
I highly doubt it’s an alien artifact, but it is an interesting shape. Anyone know anything more about it?
Looks like it could be part of a battleship turret.
It could also be an intentional hoax that someone with too much time made and then intentionally sunk in order to waste our time.
Millennium Falcon, clearly.
Given the size, it’s more likely an advance scout from the Independence Day aliens.
I see a dead body by the stairs. So did Mr. Black kill them with the manhole cover?
The Baltic Sea is covered in stuff I’m sure. When I was there last year I saw UN ships looking for WWII mines, at least that’s what the local guide said they were doing.
It’s the entrance to R’lyeh, of course.
Looks fake as shit.
According to Snopes, it’s part of a larger undersea drawing of a dong.
The wiki and the discoverers seem pretty confused. If it’s 200 *feet *in diameter then whatever it is, it certainly isn’t a battleship turret which are more like 30x50 feet max.
Reading some of the other articles on it, it appears to be a rock. The people who found it sent a bunch of rock samples to a geology professor, but it sounds like they didn’t actually note which ones came from the object. It also sounds like they’re trying pretty hard to make it into some sort of tourist destination and give submarine tours.
It looks to me like it’s just a granite boulder, probably a glacial erratic or a dropstone. It’s fractured into a funny shape, but it looks like they’re taking some liberties with the bad sonar image.
Aren’t these things usually Atlantis? Unless they’re found in the mountains, in which case they’re usually Noah’s Ark.
This is more what it really looks like.
Everything else is an “artist’s representation”. Meaning, they made it look way cooler that it is, and added detail that can’t be seen in the one (!) existing sonar image.
Well, not to cross threads, especially from there, but… just goes to prove that there’s no bar too low for a Wikipedia article. Essentially content-free blogfill about a rock, but it’s a longer article with more attentive writing and cites (I said ‘more attentive,’ not ‘better’) than many on significant topics.
Yay notability.
Looks like they were building a pyramid before it was a sea, and then the geyser thing went wrong.
Should have used a ramp.
So THAT’S where I left it! Damn parking spots all look the same at night. Well, so long — and thanks for all the fish!
Via the Giant’s Causeway?
