Flying Saucer on Ocean’s Floor?

I like posting these kinds of stories because folks usually get worked up in one direction or another on any kind of UFO talk. This one is pretty neat too, because it hints at one of my all time favorite movies, The Abyss. In that movie, writer/director James Cameron explores the notion that extra-terrestrials are actually found under the sea and not in outer space. Cool stuff.

What I’m talking about in this case is a story I saw on livescience.com about a mysterious, round object found on the ocean floor between Finland and Sweden. UFO enthusiasts are giddy because circular objects 60 feet in diameter are not usually found on the bottom of the ocean. So it has to be an alien spacecraft right? Right? Not so fast. It could be a number of things, from a natural wonder to some man-made and unaccounted for object.

Either way it would be pretty neat to know what it is. Unfortunately, that probably won’t happen. The team who found it said they don’t have the cash to risk on something that could turn out to be nothing. So I guess Marvin Martian is just going to continue his peaceful existence on the ocean’s floor.
