A mysterious circle on a grainy scan, this is what scientists are claiming is finally evidence that Earth has been visited by aliens.

Researchers have claimed the fuzzy outline is a flying saucer that ended up 300ft down on the ocean floor between Sweden and Finland.

They were stunned when sonar scans taken while searching for a century-old wreck showed up the shape against the dirt.

[dila813]

That's right! Aliens!

Take that Rossi with your ecat scam!

[Sacajaweau]

Can you say volcano??

[MeganC]

Looks like an old school Cylon Raider to me.

[null and void]

Must be, there are no natural or man-made round objects...

[TexasFreeper2009]

looks like the millennium falcon

[dila813]

That’s true, I heard that the wheels on my car came from alien technology on the earth channel

[BBell]

[dila813]

sure does, secret Nazi Dooms Day device discovery?

[camerongood210]

It’s clearly the millenium falcon, guys.

[West Texas Chuck]

I saw this exact same set of photos 6 months or a year ago. They can’t get somebody with a remote sub to head down there to prove this thing is a foolish notion?

[digger48]

[Strategerist]

I have serious doubts there are any actual “scientists” involved with this story in any way.

[Charles Henrickson]

Have scientists found a crashed flying saucer on the seabed?

I'm going to say . . . "Yes."

[tweakDU]

a rather large frisbee

[Truth29]

Didn't James Arness already star in this movie - except it was under ice?

[EGPWS]

I sure would like to get a hold of that gadget that all aliens have that allows them to grain up ALL pictures taken of their vehicles!

[Bringbackthedraft]

Finally, it must be the great ice ship that brought my ancestors to earth?

[Dallas59]

Now we know where Obammy is REALLY FROM...

[Betis70]

“By your command”

[redgolum]

The Germans played with flying disks during WWII...

[GOPsterinMA]

Exactly!!!

[Paine in the Neck]

Probably from an Antarctic ice shelf that broke off, floated to warmer climes, melted and dropped its encased contents to the sea floor. I recommend staying away from the Thing.

[John S Mosby]

Not at all possible that it is/was a replacement gun turret for a battleship that fell overboard from its transport ship when it was damaged in transit through a known transit zone?

The “front forks” not being from a starship, but the surrounding structure for the two much heavier, buried 14 or 16 inch barrels?

[Sacajaweau]

The giant pie tin from the 100th anniversary of Pillsbury. The pie took some 8000 pounds of berries, 600 bags of flour, 80 dozen eggs, etc....

[Ransomed]

Yes. Lets hope they don’t try thermite to bring this one up tp the surface.

[Doomonyou]

Looks like Han Solo's rig.

You must have a 'Thing' for Jame Arness...

[Two Kids' Dad]

FTA: Now, however, his team do not have the money or resources to examine the shape further.

So, they can get funding to chase after some sunken champagne bottles but can’t raise funds to check out an extraterrestrial spacecraft? I guess they don’t have a lot of faith in their own claim.

Maybe Sir Richard Branson can pop on over there and claim it as his own, then reverse engineer the propulsion technology and retrofit all his planes.

[null and void]

Yep.

[Two Kids' Dad]

I want to know more about the giant metal python climbing up their ship.

Do they not see its tail slithering up the mast???

[Reagan is King]

Paging George Noory...

[Cold Heart]

Dosen’t have the money to explore it further:)
You could still get in on the tail end of the global warming scam. Maybe there are some tree rings next to it or a dead polar bear. That’s it! Sink a polar bear next to it.

[bigbob]

looks like a Volvo

[Beowulf9]

It’s our balanced budget plan.

[muir_redwoods]

It’s actually just a big rubber stopper on the floor of the ocean. I sure hope they don’t find the chain and pull it.

[FortWorthPatriot]

"Looks like Han Solo's rig."

Say, wasn't that the one that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs? A Model YT-1300 Corellian Light Freighter, I believe. Can't place the name though...

[Nateman]

[edh]

It’s the Millennium Hummingbird. It was the “green” Ultra Light Freighter the Corellians made ... rumor had it they were so embarrassed by the sheer idiocy of the design. I think we know where they dumped it now.

[Thane_Banquo]

OMIGOSH! It's the Millenium Falcon!

[Thane_Banquo]

Nuts. You beat me to it.

[struwwelpeter]

Russian navy in the late 19th century experimented with round ships called "popovki". The Vice-Admiral Popov and the Novgorod were constructed as heavy-gun, shallow-draft (cue Lt Chekov) "wessles" for guarding coastal cities and river mouths.

Supposedly they were scrapped in 1912, so I can't imagine one of them ending up on the bottom of the Baltic.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

One of my Millenium Falcons is missing. How did it get over there? Oh, I forgot. My friend from Sweden must have flown home on it. Salvage rights!!!!

Do you have any idea how much an intact original Millenium Falcon plastic model from the 1970’s is worth today, esp. if it is in the original box? Mucho dinaro, boycheck!!

[GreenLanternCorps]

For comparison:

[dila813]

You might be right, but I heard that the turrets fall off the battleships if they flip upside down so you wouldn’t need a transport ship really. Just a battleship that is on its way to Davy Jones.

[Shqipo]

Poor bastards must have froze to death.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Wow! The Russians made crazy stuff before the Commies!

[iowamark]

They're on it!

[GreenHornet]

Just a battleship that is on its way to Davy Jones.

I've often suspected that the Monkees were somehow involved in the UFO coverup.

[ConservativeChris]

Good movie, GREAT PHOTOSHOP!
