Mystery object found on Baltic Sea floor

A renowned shipwreck surveyor has come across a large unidentified object at the bottom of the Baltic Sea, leading to speculation it could be anything from an underwater Stonehenge to a crashed UFO.

Swedish firm, Ocean Explorer, located the mystery object in an undisclosed part of the Baltic Sea near Sweden, using sonar technology, Daily Mail reports.

However, due to insufficient funding the Swedes cannot launch an operation to find out what the object is.

Sonar images reveal the object is a 60m cylinder, about the same size as a jumbo jet, with about 400m of drag marks.

A similar disc shaped object was observed 200m away…

By the way!

The Book of Lost Fragrances will be a Starbucks book club pick the week of March 20th and a summer pick for the amazing Pulpwood Queens! (You can pre-order your copy and get a sample of the fragrance it inspired here.)
