Scientists are searching for extraterrestrial life on distant planets using satellites and spacecraft, but something witnessed by a scientist in the depths of the ocean raises thousands of questions about what is happening in our world. A strange incident from the late 1990s has recently been circulated heavily online, concerning an unidentified object spotted by Bob McGuire, a professor at Virginia Tech and the Defense Intelligence Institute, during a classified operation aboard the USS Hampton submarine when he heard a humming sound in the depths. McGuire shared the story recently on the UAP Society channel on YouTube, aiming to reveal everything, according to a report published by the British "Daily Mail."
### Details of the Story
The story began when the sonar on the submarine detected an unknown object moving through the water at a speed greater than the speed of sound. McGuire stated that such speeds underwater should have crushed the submarine, yet it felt as if they were standing still. He urged the naval team to report the encounter, but they decided it would hinder the mission.
While McGuire did not disclose details about his activities on the submarine, nor the location and depth due to classified information, he mentioned that the engagement lasted only a few seconds. In a YouTube interview, he explained that "someone knowledgeable about the systems on board the submarine," likely monitoring the sonar technology, announced that something had passed the submarine at a speed exceeding the speed of sound.
It is noted that sound travels faster in water, about 3,330 miles per hour, because the liquid is approximately 1,000 times denser than air. The only human-made object that can be compared is the Russian Shkval torpedo, which can only reach speeds up to 230 miles per hour. The fastest marine animal is the sailfish, which can swim up to 68 miles per hour.
