Secret Underwater Bases
#1
There are many, many underwater bases spread across different locations on our little rock, and the truth is, there are more secret bases than you could ever presume.

Quote:While many of us know about Area 51 and Dulce Base, the truth is there are more secret bases than you could ever imagine. Three years ago the CIA finally admitted the existence of Area 51, but many people around the world already knew about it and the mystery and secrecy behind it. Area 51 is just one of the many out there, but interestingly, most secret bases aren’t constructed on land, but deep under the oceans.

Creating underwater bases is probably much more efficient than creating them on land. For starters, it’s nearly impossible to find an underwater base, unless of course you know its location and have the equipment to get there.

Research into the feasibility of underwater bases began nearly 50 years ago. In 1968, the Stanford Research Institute alone discussed the construction of dozens of undersea bases across the globe.


The study entitled “Feasibility of Manned In-Botton Bases,” suggested a series of locations and plans to build some of the most incredible underwater bases ever imagined.

According to a study written by T G Warfield and L R Parkinson, from the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. In 1968:

Quote:The construction of thirty manned in-bottom bases within the ocean floors is technically and economically feasible. However, it will be necessary to establish some successive types of experimental facilities before a full construction program can be started. This could take 15 years. The major technology for a land-linked station in bottom is established now; only adaptations are needed.

The remaining experimental phases will require further development of equipment and techniques applicable to remote sea access. There are useful assignments for a succession of three experimental stations other than advancing in-bottom construction techniques. Science and engineering concerned with the oceans and their resources will be furthered and military tests of undersea base functions complimenting deeper operations can be accomplished. The costs of the experimental phase, called here a demonstration program, can be surprisingly modest: approximately one-half billion dollars spent over 15 years.

A distinction between in-bottom bases and on-bottom facilities is made in the numbers of men enclosed. and the depth of water, wherein areas of one-atmosphere space can be created in bottom, and on-bottom facilities are made in the numbers of men enclosed and the depth of water, wherein areas of one atmosphere space can be created in bottom at such low costs the ingress system can be amortized if the space required is reasonably large. Economics thus can dictate the choice between the two types; even so, some on bottom facilities will be needed to aid the construction of remote in-bottom facilities.

Presently, establishing an in-bottom facility and building upon this will present fewer technical difficulties that do the submersibles which would support it and use it. Subsequent to the completion of the third phase of a demonstration program, which would be a remote, deepwater station, and the evaluation of it, a multiple base program, could be implemented. The cost of such a base program would be about $2.7 billion for the construction of a number of bases (assumed at 30).

Reading the above-mentioned study does not only bring up numerous questions that make us wonder how many bases exist in oceans around the world today, but who operates them? Do they belong the governments? Or are they independent ‘research’ facilities?


Interest in creating underwater bases continued after T G Warfield and L R Parkinson’s study in 1968. In 1987, Lloyd A. Duscha, the Deputy Director of Engineering and Construction for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers talked about the initiation of such secret bases during an engineering conference called: “Underground Facilities for Defense – Experience and Lessons.”

Quote:After World War II, political and economic factors changed the underground construction picture and caused a renewed interest to “think underground.” As a result, of this interest, the Corps of Engineers became involved in the design and construction of some very complex and interesting military projects. Although the conference program indicates the topic to be “Underground Facilities for Defense – Experience and Lessons,” I must deviate a little because several of the most interesting facilities that have been designed and constructed by the Corps are classified. (Lloyd A. Duscha, “Underground Facilities for Defense – Experience and Lessons,” inTunneling and Underground Transport: Future Developments in Technology. Economics and Policy, ed. F.P. Davidson (New York: Elsevier Science Publishing Company, Inc., 1987, pp. 109-113.)


We might not ever know what is hidden beneath the waters of our oceans, but one thing is certain; secret underwater bases are there and have been for many years, and they will continue to operate in the future.

Mystic, here is an article I found to go along with your thread.
Quote:A UFO hunter claims discovery of a 140-foot underwater object off the coast of Antarctica on Google Earth. The “glowing” underwater UFO, according to the researcher, appears to be “coming up or going back into water.”

The alleged sighting has generated lively discussion and debate online, with UFO enthusiasts contributing a myriad of theories to explain the mysterious underwater phenomenon. While the consensus among enthusiasts is that the object is likely an alien UFO emerging or returning to a secret underwater alien base in the Antarctica, dissenting voices suggest it could be a giant squid or octopus, a whale, an abandoned fishing boat or even an underwater mountain.

The “discovery” was announced by UFO hunter Secureteam10 in a video uploaded to YouTube on April 28. According to Tyler Glockner, alias Secureteam10, a viewer of his YouTube channel sent images showing a mysterious underwater object spotted on Google Earth near Deception Island, which is part of the South Shetland Islands in the Antarctica.

Glockner told his YouTube channel followers that he decided to upload the images to YouTube because he needed help to identify the object.
“I honestly don’t know what this thing is… I am not going to make any assumptions or anything like that,” the alien hunter said. “If anything, I’d just like some help from you guys, so we can try and figure out what it is we are seeing here.”
But, he noted that the image appears to show a massive object in motion under water. The motion of the object was causing a “disturbance as if [the object] was coming up and going back into the water.”
Glockner suggested it might be a huge marine creature, such as a whale, or a massive UFO.
Many enthusiasts agreed that the object was likely an alien UFO taking off or returning to a secret underwater alien base.
A viewer summed up the view of conspiracy theorists who thought the object was a UFO returning to or taking off from a secret underwater base in the Antarctica.
“I believe something is up that we don’t know about. I believe there are secret bases in parts of this world,” the YouTube user said. “It’s only a matter of time, but the day will come — I know it will.”
But, other viewers put forward alternative suggestions.

One viewer suggested the object had always been at the spot on Google Earth, and that it could be the summit of an underwater mountain appearing just below the surface of the ocean.
“If you look at the history of that area on Google Earth, that spot is always there,” a YouTube user pointed out. “This was the first time that there wasn’t cloud cover. If you zoom out you can see that this is the top of an underwater mountain.”
Another user suggested that the glow may have been caused by bioluminescent plankton in the water.
“The glowing is created when sea water is agitated from the phytoplankton in the water,” the YouTube user wrote. “When I was in the navy I would go to the aft part of the ship and watch the glowing trail left by the ships screws/propellers at night. It was mesmerizing to watch.”

Responding to some skeptics who thought that the object could be a huge squid or a whale, Glockner pointed out that at an estimated length of 140 feet (42.6 meters), the mystery object was unlikely to be a squid. But he was unable to rule out the possibility that it was a whale.

“Giant squids reach about 43ft in length, although I’m not sure if whales can go up to 140ft as this does,” the UFO hunter said.
According to National Geographic, the longest whales on record reach about 100-110 feet.

Some enthusiasts pointed that if the mysterious object was an underwater craft then it could not be an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO), but an Underwater Submerged Object (USO).

However, others argued that it is not inaccurate to refer to some USOs or Underwater Submerged Objects as UFOs because USOs are often UFOs that submerge in water after flying into the Earth’s atmosphere from space to park in an underwater base.
This is not the first time that a UFO hunter has claimed discovery of a UFO in the Antarctica. The Inquisitr reported in June 2015 that the UFO community lit up with excitement following announcement by Russian UFO hunters that they had discovered on Google Earth the wreckage of a crashed 250-foot alien spaceship — a flying saucer — half-buried in Antarctica ice.

According to the team of Russian UFO hunters led by Valetin Degterev, a native of Nizhny Tagil in central Russia, the alleged UFO was spotted at Google Earth coordinates 80°34’08.4″S 30°05’19.3″ in a satellite image taken on February 15, 2012.

But, skeptics laughed off the suggestion that the object was a UFO stuck in ice. An expert with the British Antarctica Survey told the Daily Mail that the formation in the ice thought to be a flying saucer was in fact a dark patch linked to a fissure in the ice fields.

Does everyone here remember the Soviets Navy encounters with USO's?
They did release some interesting articles or stories.
[Image: underwater+UFO_USO+humanoid+underwater+beings.jpg] 
Quote:The Russian navy has declassified its records of encounters with unidentified objects technologically surpassing anything humanity ever built, reports Svobodnaya Pressa news website.

The records dating back to soviet times were compiled by a special navy group collecting reports of unexplained incidents delivered by submarines and military ships. The group was headed by deputy Navy commander Admiral Nikolay Smirnov, and the documents reveal numerous cases of possible UFO encounters, the website says.

Vladimir Azhazha, former navy officer and a famous Russian UFO researcher, says the materials are of great value. “Fifty percent of UFO encounters are connected with oceans. Fifteen more – with lakes. So UFOs tend to stick to the water,” he said.

Quote:Nuclear Submarine

On one occasion a nuclear submarine, which was on a combat mission in the Pacific Ocean, detected six unknown objects. After the crew failed to leave behind their pursuers by maneuvering, the captain ordered to surface. The objects followed suit, took to the air, and flew away.

Many mysterious events happened in the region of Bermuda Triangle, recalls retired submarine commander Rear Admiral Yury Beketov. Instruments malfunctioned with no apparent reason or detected strong interference. The former navy officer says this could be deliberate disruption by UFOs.

“On several occasions the instruments gave reading of material objects moving at incredible speed. Calculations showed speeds of about 230 knots, of 400 kph. Speeding so fast is a challenge even on the surface. But water resistance is much higher. It was like the objects defied the laws of physics. There’s only one explanation: the creatures who built them far surpass us in development,” Beketov said.

Navy intelligence veteran, Captain 1st rank Igor Barklay comments: “Ocean UFOs often show up wherever our or NATO’s fleets concentrate. Near Bahamas, Bermudas, Puerto Rico. They are most often seen in the deepest part of the Atlantic Ocean, in the southern part of the Bermuda Triangle, and also in the Caribbean Sea.”

Lake Baikal 

Another place where people often report UFO encounters is Russia’s Lake Baikal, the deepest fresh water body in the world. Fishermen tell of powerful lights coming from the deep and objects flying up from the water.

In one case in 1982 a group of military divers training at Baikal spotted a group of humanoid creatures dressed in silvery suits. The encounter happened at a depth of 50 meters, and the divers tried to catch the strangers. Three of the seven men died, while four others were severely injured.

“I think about underwater bases and say: why not? Nothing should be discarded,” says Vladimir Azhazha.“Skepticism is the easiest way: believe nothing, do nothing. People rarely visit great depths. So it’s very important to analyze what they encounter there.”

Now there's no reason to doubt them, Didn't Christopher Columbus Mention a underwater craft with lights following his ship one night?

Here is an article released today from Mysterious Universe:
Plane from WWII Lost Squadron Found in Greenland’s Bermuda Triangle


Quote:Plane from WWII Lost Squadron Found in Greenland’s Bermuda Triangle.

'Being called “The Bermuda Triangle of ____” is never a good thing … just ask the people who have disappeared
the Bridgewater Triangle (Massachusetts), the Bennington Triangle Glastenbury), the Dragon’s Triangle (Japan),
the Michigan Triangle (you can figure this one out yourself) and the Matlock Triangle (Derbyshire Dales).

These other triangles are on land or in the ocean, but none are on ice. That unique distinction belongs to Piteraq Alley,
the Bermuda Triangle of Greenland, and this mysterious area is in the news because researchers announced they
have found a lost World War II P-38 from the infamous Lost Squadron under over 300 feet (91 meters) of ice in the
Piteraq Alley.

Credit for the discovery goes to businessman Jim Salazar and Ken McBride from the non-profit Arctic Hotpoint Solutions
and Fallen American MIA Repatriation Foundation (FAMIARF), who have spent a number of years searching for planes
and crew remains lost in the area, especially the Lost Squadron –a group of two B-17 bombers and six P-38 fighters
flying from the U.S. to Britain in July 1942 as part of Operation Bolero, delivering planes, pilots, equipment and supplies
for the war.

The path they followed was known at the time as the Snowball Route –a string of secret bases from Maine to
Newfoundland to Greenland to Iceland to Scotland. Greenland was a crucial stop –it was the only reliable source of
cryolite, a mineral used to produce aluminum for the planes.

“It’s Greenland’s ‘Bermuda Triangle’ … the weather there shifts in a matter of minutes.
As a pilot, you can clearly understand why there were so many difficulties in that area.”

By “difficulties,” Salazar means that the Lost Squadron planes weren’t the only ones lost in Piteraq Alley.
While the indigenous Intuits didn’t know about airplanes or Bermuda, they did know about the dangers of the Alley –Piteraq
means “that which attacks you” and is their word for Greenland’s severe snowstorms that can appear in just minutes.

Despite searches, a piteraq likely covered the downed planes quickly and nothing was found until 1992, when the first P-38
from the group was discovered, recovered and restored. Salazar himself has been leading searches since 2011, but it wasn’t
until July 2018 that one of his drones using ground-penetrating radar found evidence of something unusual in the ice.

They then used a thermal probe to melt through the ice to a depth of 300 feet, where they found red i5606 Hydraulic fluid
from the P-38. As Live Science reports, further investigations identified it as P-38 “Echo,” piloted by Army Air Corps Lt.
Col. Robert Wilson. (Pictures of the drone and the expedition can be seen here.)

That’s as much as Salazar’s team can do for now … it’s Greenland and winter is already blowing through.
Next summer, he plans to dig and melt through the ice to recover the P-38 and any remains, then return it to the
U.S. for possible restoration.

He will also be looking for two other victims of the Greenland Triangle –a C-53 cargo plane (a converted DC-3 civilian aircraft)
which crashed in late 1942 and a U.S. Coast Guard Duck aircraft which crashed in a futile attempt to rescue the survivors.

Are there any other victims of the Greenland Triangle?
It appears planes have avoided the area due to the severity and unexpectedness of piteraqs. Also, piteraqs are a low-altitude
weather phenomenon.

These high-density katabatic winds start on Greenland’s icecaps and are pulled by gravity down the slopes like ground-hugging
hurricanes. The Danish Meteorological Institute has measured speeds from 50 to 80 m/s (180-288 km/h; 111-178 mph).

On February 6, 1970, the community of Tasiilaq was hit by the worst documented piteraq ever in Greenland, with winds estimated
at 90 m/s or over 200 miles per hour. Since then, the Danish Meteorological Institute has been issuing piteraq warnings.

Piteraq Alley has definitely earned its title as Greenland’s Bermuda Triangle. While not as mysterious, it’s unquestionably as
deadly and worth avoiding in the air or on the ground...'
