Mystery of the Eltanin Antenna
21-Jul-2001
Between 1962 and 1979 the NSF Polar Research Vessel
Object Photographed by USNS Eltanin
Eltanin surveyed Antarctic waters, studying the ocean and ocean bottom. In 1964, the ship photographed an unusual object at a depth of 13,500 feet. At the time, there was no submarine that could have carried a piece of technology to this depth.
The object appears to be a pole rising from the ocean floor with twelve spokes radiating from it, each ending in a sphere. The spokes are at fifteen degree angles to each other. It is located approximately 1,000 miles south of Cape Horn, beneath some of the most inhospitable seas in the world.
Marine biologists have speculated that it might be some sort of an organism, largely because it is otherwise so difficult to explain. However, there is no known form of marine life that looks remotely like this object.
There exists the possibility that it is an antenna or other scientific instrument that was lost by an early research vessel, but once again, this would appear to be a very forced explanation. It seems unlikely that an object could drop through three miles of ocean, and anchor itself on the bottom.
In addition, the position of the antenna is so exact, and so strangely significant, that it would seem almost certain that it was intentionally put there. Who did it, with what technology and why remains unknown. However, it's clear that there could be an enormous secret connected with the Eltanin antenna, and one that might not be entirely unknown to certain members of the scientific community, as will be seen.
Researcher Bruce Cathie, a New Zealander who, among other things, had a famous series of UFO sightings, has developed a theory about the antenna based on its position on the planet. Cathie's theories suggest that the antenna may be part of an ancient planetary grid that is of fundamental importance to an understanding of our planet and the great 25,000 year cycle known as the precession of the equinox.
Could it be possible that the Eltanin Antenna is a piece of ancient technology, or even technology that comes from another world? Cathie certainly thinks so. Other researchers are now suggesting that modern science might be well aware of the purpose of the object, and might be actively monitoring it or using it in some way.
Mr. Cathie considers 144, the harmonic recriprocal of the speed of light, to be an important measure of the earth's grid because it divides into the planet's 21,600 minutes of arc exactly 150 times. An individual interested in Cathie's ideas began measuring outward in steps from the antenna, and to his surprise found that the Prospect Point Antarctic Base is precisely eight of these measures away. Add another unit of 144 and you find two more antarctic bases, Hemus and St. Kilmet.
Remarkably, a whole array of bases and earthquake stations surround the Eltanin Antenna. What this may mean is unknown, but it is certainly suggestive that the Eltanin antenna is no strange marine creature, but rather an object of great importance, that somebody understands very well.

I think that it is just something that was washed down there from a storm. Who says it's set up there?

OK OK.............I put it there, damn it. I couldn't get the channels I wan.............umm..........well, suffice it to say I have a killer TV picture, OK???? Happy?????

Better not take any chances, time for the foil hats:
To: vannrox
Did they bury the antenna in the sea because they were stealing premium channels from Mars without paying?
To: vannrox
Darn! They found our trasmitter.
Galactic Entertainment's stock is going to fall if earth figures out they are a TV show!

Been Googling this. Here's an interesting filtered version of the same shot; seems to outline things a little better

I have experience with numerous antennas. Personally, a good dipole is best for anything in the shortwave bands, but I must admit that the old Antron 99 vertical is a great stick for punching out in the 10 and 11 meter bands.

I had an antenna, she was married to uncle lester.

It seems unlikely that an object could drop through three miles of ocean, and anchor itself on the bottom.As opposed to what other outcome?
Heavy, steel, iron, etc., etc. objects can reach speeds over 400 mph if they descend in sufficiently deep water. (Read about the SSNThresher.)
A massive, steel and iron (foundation or step for the anntena on the ship) assembly breaks loose from its ship and impales itelf solidly in the bottom.
Not an unlikely event--right?

What's the approximate size of the friggin' "antenna"?
To: DannyTN
They found the harmonic rod for forming the portals to other dimensions.
One of the Commision must go wipe their minds of the memory.
None must speak of this again.
Not even if I could use it to get home again.

In all seriousness, what is that thing, and why does it remind me of a couple of jax glued together?

Heavy, steel, iron, etc., etc. objects can reach speeds over 400 mph if they descend in sufficiently deep water 400 MPH. You sure? That sounds quite a bit faster than the free fall rate through the air (terminal velocity...I think is in the neighborhood of 286 ft per second).
