Kutulu Is Alive?, Just find out about "the bloop" Options

The Bloop is the name given to an ultra-low frequency underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration several times during the summer of 1997. The source of the sound remains unknown.

The sound, traced to somewhere around [show location on an interactive map] 50° S 100° W (South American southwest coast), was detected repeatedly by the Equatorial Pacific Ocean autonomous hydrophone array, which uses U.S. Navy equipment originally designed to detect Soviet submarines. According to the NOAA description, it "rises rapidly in frequency over about one minute and was of sufficient amplitude to be heard on multiple sensors, at a range of over 5,000 km." Though it matches the audio profile of a living creature, there is no known animal that could have produced the sound. If it is an animal, it would have to be, reportedly, much larger than even a Blue Whale, according to scientists who have studied the phenomenon.

Search for the audio file in the internet, it is there, and its really creepy

will try find the audio. you got a direct link to that.

else is ther any mention of that more recently apart from 1997?

Here's the link to the sound itself: http://www.pmel.noaa.gov/vents/acoustics/sounds/bloop.html

I think it's pretty interesting. Kutulu? Probably not... although possibly a creature who inspired that mythos. There are more things in nature that we have not discovered, especially in the deepest parts of the ocean. There are creatures that live in the depths and never come up beyond a certain point - so until we're able to go there safely and take a look around, we'll never know what's there. For that matter, there's still an element of luck involved - the ocean floor is more vast than the dry land we walk on, and we are still discovering new things on dry land. So, it's not inconceivable that we might find some enormous 'sea monster'. It will probably die if/when we bring it up to the surface. Or for that matter, we might have to engineer new technology to even do something like that. When we're talking about Kutulu and other such 'outer' beings - their very existence is in defiance of reality, so I doubt we'll find them lurking on the ocean floor in our physical space.

I do hope they'll find the source of the noise, though, because that will probably be a really fascinating find, whatever it is.

Yeah I heard that before. Totally creepy! It's probably just some big underwater rock making a funny noise as the continents creak around, but... :shudders: so creepy.

It is also curios that it originated close to where lovecraft located R'lyeh (47°9′S, 123°43′W), and the sound originated around 50° S 100° W

this is the sound at normal speed, it is really diferent from the speeded version
