Bloop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bloop is the name given to an ultra-low frequency and extremely powerful underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 1997. The source of the sound remains unknown.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_(unidentified_sound)

"Julia" is a sound recorded on March 1, 1999 by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA said the source of the sound was unknown, but sufficiently loud to be heard over the entire Equatorial Pacific Ocean autonomous hydrophone array. It lasted for about 15 seconds, and its origin was in the equatorial Pacific Ocean at approximately 15° S 98° W.[1]

Slow Down is a sound recorded on May 19, 1997, in the Equatorial Pacific Ocean by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The source of the sound remains unknown.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train_(unidentified_sound)

The Train is the name given to an unidentified sound recorded on March 5, 1997 on the Equatorial Pacific Ocean autonomous hydrophone array. The sound rises to a quasi-steady frequency. The origin of the sound is unknown.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upsweep_(unidentified_sound)

Upsweep is an unidentified sound detected on NOAA's equatorial autonomous hydrophone arrays. This sound was present when PMEL began recording its sound surveillance system SOSUS in August, 1991. It consists of a long train of narrow-band upsweeping sounds of several seconds duration each. The source level is high enough to be recorded throughout the Pacific.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whistle_(unidentified_sound)

The Whistle is an unidentified sound recorded by the autonomous hydrophone deployed at a location in the Pacific Ocean with coordinates 8°N 110°W. It was recorded on July 7, 1997. The origin of the signal is unknown, and it was not detected on any other hydrophone. The band of energy between 1 and 6 Hz represents strumming of the mooring in mid-water currents.

that train clip is not right brehs wtf is that sound doing in the ocean

 

[Mr. Somebody]

Lets go play with remote controlled cars on mars though friends.

 

[Slystallion]

It sounds llike I would expect the ocean to sound if I stuck a mic down there

 

[Agent Mulder]

I wonder what are the chances that a huge underwater sea creature will still be discovered someday....

 

[Ghost of $oCal]

The ocean scares me.

 

[Mr. Somebody]

The ocean scares me.

You ever look into the ocean at night. Looks like a giant abyss. It will make a man feel mortal.

You ever look into the ocean at night. Looks like a giant abyss. It will make a man feel mortal.

And yet knowing that all life originated from there and that we couldn't exist without it almost has a serene, calming effect, like you're looking at home.

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

i read that we only explored 10% of the ocean's depth

i wouldnt be surprised if the oceans flood the world one day.

 

[Token Negro]

Man that Bloop shyt sounds like

 

[Grams]

To me this is the best proof

This picture right here was proven to be no known fish/tree/debris and it hasn't been tampered with so whatever is in this picture is in this picture

I'll never forget in my middle school social studies textbook there was a painting of Samuel de Champlain and in the background the artist had the monster sticking its head out above the water I was but I couldn't get a pic cuz it was back in the day.

I used to be heavy in this but I really don't care anymore cuz if one happens to wash up what happens? They'll still be as elusive as they were before

 

[Brown_Pride]

there's a reason i live in a desert

 

[Mr. Somebody]

And yet knowing that all life originated from there and that we couldn't exist without it almost has a serene, calming effect, like you're looking at home.

Its scary to me.

here's a good article on this

Meet the Bloop, the mysterious sound from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean

contrary to my misgivings about the train it seems like most of these sounds don't have people completely stumped except... THE BLOOP

So, where does this leave us? We've got a pretty decent handle on the origins of Upsweep, Slow Down, and Train, although none of these can be considered confirmed explanations. Julia and Whistle are harder to pin down with a specific explanation, but they don't baffle scientists or inflame the imagination in quite the same way that Bloop has.

It's worth noting as a general principle that there's a big difference between things that are full-on unexplainable and others that are simply unexplained. While the former might force us to consider some pretty out there hypotheses in an attempt to make sense of what's going on, the latter is a more mundane kind of mysterious. We don't know what caused these sounds, but that's more a product of having precious little data to work with and the Pacific Ocean being a very, very big place. Indeed, the depths of the Pacific constitute the largest unexplored frontier on the planet. It would be amazing if we could explain everything we encounter in it.

But if there's one noise that is dangerously close to tipping over from unexplained to unexplainable, it's the Bloop. While ice calving has been thrown around as a possible explanation - its southerly location does make that a decently likely possibility - the profile of the sound far more closely matches that of an animal. And that's where the whole thing gets really strange.

If the Bloop was made by an animal, then it seemingly must be larger than any other known organism. Even the blue whale, whose record length is about 110 feet, would not be nearly big enough to account for the Bloop. Could such a leviathan exist? It's possible, and the Bloop might be considered the strongest evidence for such a beast...but it's also pretty much the only such evidence. There's not a shred of evidence to support the existence of what we might call a supergiant whale, and even with the entire Pacific Ocean to hide in, it's difficult to credit that a species that must continually come to the surface to breath could completely hide its existence.
