Have you seen a UFO?

Big. Round. Deep

Using side-scan sonar, the team found a 60-meter diameter cylinder-shaped object, with a rigid tail 400 meters long.

On another pass over the object, the sonar showed a second disc-like shape 200 meters away.

Lindberg's team believe they are too big to have fallen off a ship or be part of a wreck, but it's anyone's guess what could be down there.

The other salvage company mentioned in the article had a show that ran on Discovery (now running on Animal Planet, I think). In one of the episodes, their side-scan sonar picked up what looked like a flat-top carrier in the North Atlantic, where there was no record of one ever having been. On the return visit, preliminary scans yielded very similar looking pictures. So, they sent down their sub. It didn't take long before things didn't add up. The wreckage didn't look right/contain the expected items. But mostly, the wreckage was far too short. They concluded that they had found a tanker or freighter that had landed on its top, and that over time, the hull flattened out, coincidentally resembling the top of those particular aircraft carriers.

Looks like the Millenium Falcon to me. Or rocks.

I was thinking we had found some of KLA2's relatives, but you could be right!
