The Boknis Eck Observatory might've been "forcibly removed" from a bay in Germany, the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel said.
Data transmission from the underwater sensors suddenly cut out one night in August, GEOMAR said. When divers went to investigate at the observatory site, they found nothing but a shredded cable that once anchored it.
The observatory, planted in Kiel's Eckernförde Bay in 2016, consists of two "desk-sized" racks: One acts as a power source, tethered to the coast by a cable, and the other contains the sensors that transmit data back to shore. Both were missing when divers went to investigate...
The observatory costs around $330,000... Its sensors measure the sea's salinity, concentrations of methane, oxygen and carbon dioxide and temperature.

Was it giving data contradicting global warming....

It was the Kraken.
Obviously, someone wasn’t being very observant in overseeing the observatory.
Where’s the ubiquitous Georgio pic, because you know darn well it was “aliens”.
Check the local pawn shops.
Curses!
Scrappers!
Faith Domergue was one of Howard Hughes’ cuties, but I think she wouldn’t give it up for him.
Friend and I were walleye fishing in Lake Erie 12-14 years ago. It was windy but the anchor seemed to be holding. We got ready to leave and we couldn’t pull up anchor. We could pull it up a most of the way but the last 10-20 was more than we lift. Out friends showed up and we decided that are going to land the anchor and whatever is on it. Turned out to be a 5in cable, power for Put-in-Bay from the direction of the way. We got the anchor loose, dropped the cable and thanked God for saving our lives. I’m sure cables that size don’t have GFIs on them.
Probably a 100kva line. Your hair was probably standing on end.
The Boknis Eck got boknis ecked.
“Knew sometbing about Hillary”
Lol, nicely done.
I am suspecting the nazi’s....veeery interesting.
Deep water oil and gas, same thing. Treat it like you will never see it again if you put it in the ocean. Even if it is designed to be retrieved.
You’d think an observatory would have seen something...
Vivian: I haven't heard anything about another Biosphere.
George: That's because it's underwater.
Vivian: This is insane.
George: Is it?
Vivian: Yes it it.
George: Well, it's all for charity, so what's the difference.
Having worked on a shrimp boat you’d be amazed at what comes up in the nets.
“The observatory costs around $330,000.”
Or a $100 at the scrapyard.
