Retired Navy Admiral Sounds Alarm On Unknown Objects In The Ocean

Are UFOs in the oceans and not just the sky?

The topic of UFOs remains as hot as ever and only growing hotter with every passing day. Below are just a few recent hits:

That's a lot of different events for a subject that has no clear explanation. Now, there is a government official arguing people should focus on the water - not the sky - that consumes the majority of America.

Retired Navy Admiral sounds off on unknown objects in the ocean.

Retired Navy Admiral Tim Gallaudet, who served as the head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under President Donald Trump, believes that while everyone is curious about unknown objects zipping around the sky, it might be time to turn our attention to water.

Gallaudet wrote the following, in part, in a lengthy paper about the mysteries of what might be in the oceans:

Where national security is concerned, the current situation with maritime domain awareness is unsettling. Even though the ocean covers 71 percent of Earth’s surface, less than 25 percent of the seabed has been mapped to modern standards, and only 5 percent of the ocean volume explored—more is known about the surfaces of the moon and Mars than that of our own planet’s seafloor. The geophysical undersampling of the world’s ocean is a critical concern for maritime security, as obtaining and maintaining knowledge of threats on and under the sea remains a perpetually unfinished task. The fact that unidentified objects with unexplainable characteristics are entering US water space and the DOD is not raising a giant red flag is a sign that the government is not sharing all it knows about all-domain anomalous phenomena. An effective and complete approach to maritime security must seek to uncover the "unknown unknowns" associated with transmedium UAP and USOs.

Yet however concerning the security implications of UAP are, the scientific ramifications are nothing short of world changing. Pilots, credible observers, and calibrated military instrumentation have recorded objects accelerating at rates and crossing the air–sea interface in ways not possible for anything made by humans, and several pieces of congressional legislation support these observations by defining UAP as transmedium vehicles. The stunning implication is that engineering, materials science, and physics beyond the state of the art are needed to produce and operate these objects. This knowledge could transform such fields as air and maritime transportation, energy generation, agriculture, communications, computing, manufacturing, space travel—virtually every imaginable economic sector—not to mention defense.

Do those comments make you want to stay up at night pondering what the hell is out there? It sure does for me. There's one part that really stands out to me above the rest.

It's when Gallaudet wrote the following:

The fact that unidentified objects with unexplainable characteristics are entering US water space and the DOD is not raising a giant red flag is a sign that the government is not sharing all it knows about all-domain anomalous phenomena.

This guy isn't some quack job you often find in the dark corners of the internet. He's a retired Navy Admiral who served as head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. His credentials speak for themselves. 

When a guy with his resume is heavily implying the government isn't being honest, I'd argue it might be time to listen and start asking some serious questions. It's long been whispered the oceans feature objects similar to what is seen in the sky without explanation.

Are there as many recordings? No but we're talking about isolated areas around the ocean. Not populated areas where people have quick access to phones with cameras.

More than anything, it goes to show this topic isn't going away. It's only going to get more and more intriguing. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
