Baltic Sea UFO May Be Secret Nazi Weapon

Even if this isn't a UFO, this might just be the next best(?) answer.  The Truth Behind The Scenes:


Divers exploring a ‘UFO-shaped’ object in the Baltic sea say that the strange, curved object may possibly be a secret Nazi device lost beneath the waves since the end of the Second Planet War.



Sonar scans have shown that the device, raised 10ft above the seabed and measuring 200ft by 25ft, could be the base of an anti-submarine weapon.


The weapon was built with wire mesh which could have baffled submarine radar, leading enemy craft to crash – a lot in the exact same way as turning out a lighthouse could be utilized as a weapon against shipping.


But now former Swedish naval officer and WWII expert Anders Autellus has revealed that the structure – measuring 200ft by 25ft – could be the base of a device developed to block British and Russian submarine movements in the area.


The large steel-and-concrete structure could be one of the most essential historical finds in years.


Autellus claims it would have been built of double-skinned concrete and reinforced with wire mesh to baffle radar – which could clarify why the dive team’s equipment repeatedly failed near the mystery object.


‘The location was important to the German war machine simply because most of the ball bearings for its tanks and trucks came from right here. Without having them the German army would have ground to a halt,’ explained one professional.


‘This device dwarfs anything ever located ahead of and is an essential weapons discovery,’ they added.


Explorer Stefan Hogeborn – who is studying the images for the Ocean X diving team – agreed: ‘It is a good candidate for the answer to this mystery. The object lies directly underneath a shipping route.’




'It would be of enormous weight in steel and concrete. Other Nazi anti-sub anchoring devices had been nowhere near as huge,’ he added.


Whilst the Ocean Explorer team is understandably excited about their potentially earth-shattering find, other individuals are slightly far more sceptical and are questioning the accuracy of the sonar technologies.

 The 9th of July, Ocean X Team left on their second expedition to solve the mystery about the Baltic Sea anomaly. The crew will return to shore 21th of July

This does not, also, exclude those "crazy theories" about the Nazis and UFO's or "alien technology," either..  This is still my favorite non-doom story of 2012.  Me want more Baltic Anomaly!

Baltic Sea 'UFO' still cloaked in secrecy

Some more background, and a better perspective on whatever this anomaly turns out to be..  The Examiner. Excerpts:

The so-called "Baltic Sea UFO" is in the news again this week after a research vessel returned to its co-ordinates and sent a team of divers down to the seabed for a closer look. Despite having a live feed and access to updates on Facebook, so far, only cryptic messages have been released.


What's down there? At this point, it's either the biggest story the world has ever known or a massive publicity stunt engineered to lure in faithful UFO disclosure advocates. Either way, the public (believers and non-believers alike) are waiting for every breathless dispatch.

The story began last summer when treasure hunters Peter Lindberg and Dennis Asberg were sweeping an area off the Swedish coast when their side-scan SONAR picked up a large, rounded object on the seabed hundreds of feet below the surface.
Initial observation aboard the vessel revealed the object was not like any other sunken vessel ever discovered because of its immense size (200 feet in circumference) and its unusual, circular shape. Not having the means to dive down on the mystery object, its position was recorded and all data saved for later review.


In July, 2011, Lindberg and Asberg studied the data further and released a video of the SONAR images on YouTube, which quickly went viral. Paranormal researchers immediately seized on the video as evidence of ancient alien visitation and the object was nicknamed the "Millennium Falcon" because of its uncanny resemblance to the spaceship made famous by the Star Wars saga.


For his part, Lindberg has left the alien speculation open to debate. In his initial statements he landed on the side of something man-made and floated the possibility of a sunken Stonehenge or a remnant of the fabled Lost City of Atlantis.

Debunkers (mainly scientists) have decried the early speculation, believing rather that the object is merely an anomaly of the equipment used or perhaps a sunken vessel, possibly of Russian origin, lost more than a century ago.

The so-called "Baltic Sea UFO" is in the news again this week after a research vessel returned to its co-ordinates and sent a team of divers down to the seabed for a closer look. Despite having a live feed and access to updates on Facebook, so far, only cryptic messages have been released.


Still, the story was much too juicy to let it go at that, and, over the winter and spring of 2011-2012 donations came pouring in for a revisit to the site.
..
Over the past few days, only dribs and drabs of information have been forthcoming, the most tantalizing being the "breaking news" dispatch released on June 7, from the research team's own website, claiming that, "The divers are now down and investigating the circle and reports from the ship say they are really amazed. There is definitely something unusual hiding at the seabed – a Mystery Beneath. More information and pictures will be released next week."

Then, on Sunday, Dennis Asberg sent out a Facebook update which only adds to the confusion while deepening the mystery--and the hype. "Everything is top secret now because of the risks, hope you all understand this is no game." posts Asberg. "But the truth will be reported shortly."

Sketchy details are more the province of the treasure hunter rather than the legitimate scientist, so these dispatches have to be taken with the proverbial grain of salt. But, if there is a startling, world-changing discovery in the offing, even the dedicated professional would be hard-pressed on just how to release that news.

So, maybe, there is something to this after all. If it turns out to be the prototype gun turret from some old Russian warship, it will still be an important archaeological find.

But, if it ends up being real evidence that ancient aliens have indeed visited Earth, it could be the biggest story of all time.

Either way, stay tuned...

I like this interpretation of events a little better than yesterday's post, as the term "hoax" was thrown out far too quickly to be impartial or realistic.  Events unfolding in real time do not have a schedule, and are not subject to the whims and wishes of the Internet observer or blogger.  This event will play out as it plays out, and I, for one, will be patient for whatever statement Ocean X provides..  When they provide it.  If it is indeed a Russian warship, that will be a cool consolation prize, as any new archaeological find always is..

Having said that, I'd still love to see this "anomaly" rise out of the ocean, live on every news network, and fly off.  If that happens, I will go crazy with glee!  C'mon aliens:  Give us a show!
