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.

a) Captain Nemo left it there

b) It is an underwater cloth drying hanger

c) Finally, "evidence" against rep. Traficant ("Bemammeup whoever...") planted by DummycRATS

Simple, just look for the feedline and where it leads to. Maybe it leads to Osborne's Atlantis MTV.

I choose:b) It is an underwater cloth drying hanger

Must be where the Little Mermaid and the merpeople hang their clothes.

Only counts for low density stuff. Now you get a really dense nickel-iron meteor, whizzing along at 15,000 mph relative to Earth, and it is NOT GOING TO SLOW DOWN to 286 feet per second as it enters the atmosphere and punches a hole in a car in Australia or New Zealand!

[OOTB]

I agree, nothing beats a good dipole. Except maybe three aces and a good tower mounted Yagi.

That doesn't look so much filtered as it does to be the negative image of the photo at the top of th article. Kind of like the Shroud of Turin negatives. The image looks clearer in negative.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

the old Antron 99 vertical is a great stick...

True enough. But I'll put my refurbished Super Penetrator 500 up against anybody's Antron.

73's back at ya. I'm QRT and standing by.     =;^)

[JennysCool]

Well, it was negative-filtered!

144 cubits x ...............?

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.

WOW!!

And the square root of 144 is 12.

And if you then add the number 7 (a prime number! a prime number!), you get:

NINETEEN!!

See?

And a new mathematical concept is introduced here: the recriprocal!

Any relation to the reciprocal?

[struwwelpeter]

The strangest part, they found one of these attached to it.

OMG, is that a Nestor?

[Fiddlstix]

Looks to me like some nitwit tried to make a weather vane while in a drunken stupor, made several attempts, finally gave up and threw the whole mess overboard.

[Swordmaker]

Terminal velocity in air and water depend on cross sectional density more than anything. In air, the terminal velocity of a feather is considerably different than the terminal velocity of an anvil.

The "antenna" could be nothing more than something dropped overboard that impacted vertically and is stuck in the muck.

Where is Robert Ballard when you really need him???

[Swordmaker]

One comment: most objects at the bottom of the ocean, including metal, eventually acquire a coating of marine life and silt... this does not appear to have such on it.

[Paulus Invictus]

Where can I buy a hat like this one? It has a nice design and looks impermeable to incoming waves of UFO-generated brain scramblers. I saw an antenna like this one at KMart. They are called rabbit ears and pick up TV, radio and UFO signals.

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.

If I wanted it down there, whatever it is, I wouldn't try to "carry it down." I'd drop it from the surface.

Reminds me of Stan Laurel throwing Oliver Hardy a rope when the latter is stuck on a roof. "Tie it around your waist!"

[strela]

I must admit that the old Antron 99 vertical is a great stick for punching out in the 10 and 11 meter bands.

Fine antenna, that. The A99 works much, MUCH better with the ground plane kit though.
