Several days ago, [url=http://io9.com/5817761/was-the-millennium-falcon-found-at-the-bottom-of-the-baltic-sea]we reported that a Swedish team of shipwreck hunters discovered a strange, circular object at the bottom of the Baltic Sea[/url] that looks sort of like the Millennium Falcon. The group was using sonar to plumb the depths of the waters, hoping to find shipwrecks that might contain treasures they could sell. The Ocean Explorer team isn't sure what to make of this strange discovery that some are calling a crashed UFO, but they've released more information about it.
Here you can see Peter Lindberg, from the Swedish Ocean Explorer team that discovered the object, explaining what they found. Earlier, he [url=http://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article13263359.ab]told reporters[/url]:

At 87 meters down, between Sweden and Finland, they saw a large circle, about 60 feet in diameter. You see a lot of wierd stuff in this job but during my 18 years as a professional I have never seen anything like this. The shape is completly round… a circle.[/quote]
Apparently [url=http://scwaring.typepad.com/blog/2011/07/ufo-sighting-of-giant-disk-at-the-bottom-of-the-baltic-sea-july-2011-video.html]there are tracks about 300 meters long leading up to the object[/url], leading Lindberg to speculate that the object has moved. So far nobody has explored the object yet, so hopefully we'll be learning more about this as the story develops.[/release]
I hope they go down there and explore the damn thing closely... :/
EDIT: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-- sorry I'm late, but I haven't found any post about it :/
Thank you for not hiding this from the rest of the world!
Saw this a while ago and Millennium Falcon/Ebon Hawk.
It's not the Millennium Falcon nerds,
It's the FUCKING EBON HAWK

Well they go down and study it already?
[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;31233412]Looks like the ufo from Destroy All Humans
otherwise [I][INSERT SWAMP GAS JOKE HERE][/I][/QUOTE]wow looks exactly like it
actually new perspective, no it doesnt
I don't think it's anything, but proof about aliens would be fucking boss.
I still wouldn't have balls to dive there. :P

The government told them not to.
They're spaceships
Looks like a rock.
[QUOTE=CatFodder;31234400]Looks like a rock.[/QUOTE]
Good to see I'm not the only one who thought that.
When I read the thread title I expected some low low low quality pictures with vague structures open to any interpretation especially if people expect a spaceship.
[QUOTE=Jimpy;31233431]Well they go down and study it already?[/QUOTE]
It costs money. They have to look for people who want to invest in their project.
[QUOTE=Jimpy;31233431]Well they go down and study it already?[/QUOTE]
Because it would be a waste of time and money. Within context of it possibly being a spaceship, it would be worth it, but it's not and therefore not worth any time.
Looks kinda interesting. Even if it's not a Mi-go saucer, it'd still be a cool underwater rock formation to investigate.
But personally I think it looks kind of like a sort of weird ancient stone temple, maybe something built by a mysteriously unrecorded advanced culture during one of the Ice Ages, and the aforementioned tracks were roads of some sort. Was the Baltic ever free from water during past aeons?
Also, how big is this damn thing?
Hahaha, silly spaceship.
You can't swim.

If this "advanced civilization" existed, then why haven't we seen more of them? We probably would've seen more than just a single building if they were advanced enough to make buildings. So where are the surrounding buildings, their homes, their shops?
Nice job with adding the suspenseful music. Haha.
it's the swedish king's porn stash

Well if it's not the Mi-Go then it must be the Great Race!

Why, because of the flying polyps of course :tinfoil:
Alternatively it could be nothing of any interest.

An almost perfectly-circular rock with straight, 300-meter tracks leading up to it? Alright.
[QUOTE=Jimpy;31233431]Well they go down and study it already?[/QUOTE]
Easier said than done. The pressure down there is intense.
The first thing I thought when I saw the picture is that if you look at it sideways, it looks like a man in a winter coat, with a hood.
why can't they ever get a decent picture
I mean I'm no diving expert but getting decent pictures/video at 87 meters down doesn't sound that difficult

i mean the titanic wreck is like 3.5km underwater
