It disabled our radio - which we later learned, to our alarm, was intentional. SKIP TO 00:17:00 TO GET TO THE STORY Welcome to Episode 109: Lake Vostok & Organism 46-B! The largest of these i Perhaps, though, its most remarkable ability is that of camouflage. This resulted in an estimate that the entire volume of the lake is replaced every 13,300years its effective mean residence time.[30]. The remaining scientists returned to the surface with the tank containing the new species in tow. Even stranger, within this inner Earth was another species, perhaps indigenous, perhaps extraterrestrial, but certainly not human. Tragically my colleague and lifelong friend was killed this way. Centre for Polar Observation & Modelling glaciologists propose that many of the subglacial lakes of Antarctica are at least temporarily interconnected. ", Later, while diving in the lake, the group were attacked, the creature releasing its venom into the water which took hold of one of of them, then killing and eating him. Escaping the creature, a member of the team managed to lop off one of 46-B's tentacles, although the severed limb attacked the group again. Sequences from aerobic, anaerobic, psychrophilic, thermophilic, halophilic, alkaliphilic, acidophilic, desiccation-resistant, autotrophic, and heterotrophic organisms were present, including a number from multicellular eukaryotes.[56]. Number of parts equals APs of power. Although it is extremely speculative, might we imagine that the Russian (and for a time Soviet) authorities are aware of some kind subaquatic species and presence? It was as if it had hypnotized him telepathically., From the way it adapted each time we changed our tactics, we became convinced it is at least as intelligent as an average human. Dr. Anton Padalka claims to have been part of the first scientistific expedition to explore the lake. This ability can be further developed by organism 46B. Dr. Anton Padalka told a tale of a research mission to discover life in Lake Vostok, deep beneath the Antarctic ice when his team disappeared there for 5 days. Elements of this report suggest that this may have been something of a hoax. Additional bacteria and eukaryotes were reported. [citation needed] The Russian team plans to eventually lower a probe into the lake to collect water samples and sediments from the bottom. The largest of these is Lake Vostok, discovered during the Soviet Antarctic Expeditions of 1959/1964 and later confirmed by British scientists in the early 1970s. The strange creature seizes and dismembers prey using a powerful beak, breaking the food source into pieces. As they rested that night to recover from the ordeal, the vengeful tentacle slithered onto the icy bank and strangled Dr. Kalashnik in her sleep. The liquid water depth over the ridge is about 200m (700ft), compared to roughly 400m (1,300ft) deep in the northern basin and 800m (2,600ft) deep in the southern. Marcus also regularly appears as an expert on radio talk shows including Troubled Minds and Unexplained Radio discussing these topics. Dr. Padalkas account describes the lake as having a shore just below the ice where the scientists made camp. [56][57] Taxonomic classifications (to genus and/or species) or identification were possible for 1,623 of the sequences. Thus there would be no contact with any toxins in the water. It is said to have attacked a team of Russian scientists on an expedition while exploring the lake. It will use creative tactics to ambush its prey or to render its victims helpless before it strikes. For example, not only is it extremely far fetched, but ice core drilling typically produces a passage only a few inches in diameter, certainly not large enough to transport a person through two miles of ice, never mind a tank capable of containing a 33-foot long aquatic creature. With an average depth of 432m (1,417ft), it has an estimated volume of 5,400km3 (1,300cumi),[2] making it the 6th largest lake by volume. Quayle, like many others it should be said, believes an alien presence resides within the Antarctic region. . A solitary predator, it can be very aggressive in defending its territory. It was also able to hypnotize one of the scientists, who was also their radio operator, Dr. Alexis Vindogradov. However, a human would have been killed had he been in scuba gear, meaning it should have been somewhat suspicious of an unprotected human in such a pressurized environment. [19] In 1991, Jeff Ridley, a remote sensing specialist with the Mullard Space Science Laboratory at University College London, directed the ERS-1 satellite to turn its high-frequency array toward the center of the Antarctic ice cap. Again, quoting Quayle in his aforementioned book, Someone, or something, has summoned the worlds leaders. Description Organism 46-B was an enormous 33ft (10m) long, 14-tentacled squid-like creature which lived in Lake Vostok, a subglacial lake located under two miles of ice beneath Vostok Station in the Antarctic. These can be used to smell and taste in addition to grasping, aiding in the tracking of prey. Example 2: The second casualty was tricked by an image of a human diver in scuba gear. [25] Because of varying water pressure in individual lakes, large subsurface rivers may suddenly form and then force large amounts of water through the solid ice. Cryptid Wiki is a FANDOM Lifestyle Community. ?#lakevostok #organisim46b #realorfakeOrgamisim - 46 B Lake Vostok Killer Squid/ Octopus Hi guys \u0026 welcome back to my channel for another episode of real or fake. As Padalka stated "He tread water wearing a blissful smile as the organism approached him. The sheer weight and pressure around 345 bars (5,000psi) of the continental ice cap on top of Lake Vostok is estimated to contribute to the high gas concentration. However, Organism 46B is much more evolved. San Jacinto, CA 92583, United States. Lake Vostok is the largest of more than 145 subglacial lakes most of them several kilometers longthat have been discovered under Antarctica in past decades. It disabled our radio - which we later learned, to our alarm, was intentional. Organism 46-B can also reputedly use its chromatophores to create hypnotic patterns. Ice samples from cores drilled close to the top of the lake have been assessed to be as old as 420,000years. Using their most agile crew member, Dr. Marta Kalashnik, as bait, the unit would eventually capture the creature. Roughly the size of Lake Ontario, Vostok is twice as deep (500 meters), and lies roughly 500 meters below sea level. The carefully laid trap was successful in securing the beast, but one of the arms managed to grasp Dr. Kalashnik. This octopus-like entity would prove to be elusive, deceptive, and deadly. The data from ERS-1 confirmed the findings from the 1973 British surveys,[20] but these new data were not published in the Journal of Glaciology until 1993. Insert Lex Luthor and Luthorcorp for Putin and Russia, respectively, and you can leave the history pretty much unchanged. [47] Instead of drilling all the way into the water, they said they would stop just above it when a sensor on the thermal drill detected free water. To their surprise, the colleague was actually Organism 46-B, who grabbed one of their marine biologists before he realized what it was. [62], Critics from the scientific community state that no valuable information can be obtained until they can test clean samples of lake water, uncontaminated by drilling fluid. Later, Dr. Padalka and other team members were on an observation dive, when they noticed one of their colleagues swimming towards them in SCUBA gear. A. Zotikov, who wrote his PhD thesis on this subject in 1967. The Fraser Island Humanoid Encounter Contact On The Beach! While that sounds like a completely flippant comment, it is largely very true. Samples taken from the lake so far contain about one part of kerosene per 1000 of water, and they are contaminated with bacteria previously present in the drill bit and the kerosene drilling fluid. What makes this lake so special is that . "[4], Lukin claims that hot-water drilling is much more dangerous for the microbiotic fauna, as it would boil the living species, and disturb the entire structure of water layers of the lake. Or more to the point, in this case, its ability to change its form altogether to mimic other creatures. He was apparently returning from his own dive. Some species of octopus lay 200,000 eggs, imagine if they were deposited in reservoirs and lakes across North America, he feared. Antarctic glacial ice covers the lake, roughly 4,000 meters thick. SKIP TO 00:17:00 TO GET TO THE STORY Welcome to Episode 109: Lake Vostok & Organism 46-B! We encountered Organism 46-B on day one as we were conducting a preliminary dive in our low-temperature [dry suits]. Much like the mimic octopus, it was able to contort its body into the shape of aquatic life. This newly discovered creature is similar to the glass octopus, its nearest relative in the aquatic world. But it would surprise the scientific community. According to reports and leaks from a former member of the project, Dr. Anton Padalka, a discovery of a 14-armed octopus would prove a breakthrough. Furthermore, given the abundance of new life forms discovered in the region (over 3,500 species according to some reports), [1] there is hope that similar life may be found on Europa or similar icy worlds throughout the solar system. The entire article and the contents within are published by, wholly-ownedandcopyright of UFO Insight. He might be looking for the perfect operatives for an espionage mission to retrieve such samples. However, it is certainly possible that the team was doing more than drilling core samples. She was between the ages of 17 and 25 at her death. [48] Drilling stopped on 5 February 2011 at a depth of 3,720m (12,200ft) so that the research team could make it off the ice before the beginning of the Antarctic winter season. Receive the latest articles directly in your inbox weekly. The Russian government has denied all knowledge of these claims. Regeneration is physical damage only , but allows regrowth of lost limbs. Perhaps Organism 46-Bs most frightening ability is to release a powerful neurotoxin. [36][43] Jupiter's moon Europa and Saturn's moon Enceladus may also harbor lakes or oceans below a thick crust of ice. The project to probe the Great. [4][5] The continued research by Russian and British scientists[5][6] led to the final confirmation of the existence of the lake in 1993 by J. P. Ridley using ERS-1 laser altimetry. [36][42] This suggests the presence of a deep biosphere utilizing a geothermal system of the bedrock encircling the subglacial lake. [31] Geothermal heat from the Earth's interior may warm the bottom of the lake,[32][33][34] while the ice sheet itself insulates the lake from cold temperatures on the surface. There is a perfect view. But according to Dr Anton Padalalka who fled from Russia to Switzerland in 2016 seeking asylum reported a far more different tale of events that had occurred. Your email address will not be published. And whats more, it can do so from 150-feet away. [38], Besides dissolving in the water, oxygen and other gases are trapped in a type of structure called a clathrate. [9] On 5 February 2012, a team of Russian scientists completed the longest ever ice core of 3,768m (12,400ft) and pierced the ice shield to the surface of the lake. The old ice cores were drilled in the 1990s to look for evidence of past climates buried in the ice, rather than for life, so the drilling equipment was not sterilized. Underneath Antarctica's miles of ice, you'll find approximately 400 subglacial lakes. The creature designated Organism 46-B was an aquatic beast allegedly captured by a Russian scientific team near the research outpost Vostok Station. [64][65] The drilling technology used proved to be inappropriate to collect liquid water in general and clean samples in particular[66] and results were unreported. It was shortly after they set up camp and began their initial dives that they discovered the creature they dubbed Organism 46-B. 46-B is similar to the Indo-Pacific Mimic Octopus and has extraordinary camouflage capabilities. The environment is believed to be super saturated with nitrogen and oxygen, roughly 50 times that of normal freshwater lakes. In July of 2012, a defecting Russian scientist showed up in Switzerland with an incredible story. As scientists in other fields learned more about Jupiter and its moons, specifically Europa, the findings in the Antarctic region of Lake Vostok, came flooding to the forefront of their minds. [3] Because the word Vostok means "East" in Russian, the names of the station and lake also reflect the fact that they are located in East Antarctica. While their previous work indicated the presence of bacteria that inhabit fish intestines, no sequences from fish were found. [25], Africa separated from Antarctica around 160million years ago, followed by the Indian subcontinent, in the early Cretaceous (about 125 million years ago). If you don't like what you read, you can unsubscribe at any time. Dr. Anton Padalka was part of the 8-person team sent to explore and catalog the lifeforms in Lake Vostok. We take a look at a mysterious creatures that was discovered by Russian scientists. 46-B is essentially what you would get if you combined the best traits of all the cephalopod species. The station after which the lake is named commemorates the Vostok (), the 900-ton sloop-of-war ship sailed by one of the discoverers of Antarctica, Russian explorer Admiral Fabian von Bellingshausen. Like other cephalopods, it possesses chromatophores which can change color or reflect light, and specialized papillae which allow it to control the texture of its skin. With some tweaks to represent Organism 46-Bs human level intelligence and its unique abilities. [70][71], The drilling project has been opposed by some environmental groups and scientists who have argued that hot-water drilling would have a more limited environmental impact. When the drill broke through, pressure caused the water to shoot upward, filling the hole. [7][50] The Russians resumed drilling into the lake in January 2012 and reached the upper surface of the water on 6 February 2012. [14] Also Sergey Bulat, a Lake Vostok expert at the Petersburg Nuclear Physics Institute in Gatchina, Russia, doubts that any of the cells or DNA fragments in the samples would belong to organisms that might actually exist in the lake. The creature disabled the radio during the attack, cutting off the researchers contact with the outside world. What makes this lake so special is that it has . Organism 46-B was an enormous 33ft (10m) long, 14-tentacled squid-like creature which lived in Lake Vostok, a subglacial lake located under two miles of ice beneath Vostok Station in the Antarctic. However, rather than the usual 8 arms of an octopus it had a total of 14 arms. Listen to this episode from Let's Get Haunted on Spotify. The lake constitutes the coldest naturally occurring conditions thus far recorded on Earth. [12][13][14] A new borehole was drilled and an allegedly pristine water sample was obtained in January 2015. By using these abilities and contorting its boneless body into other shapes, the species is capable of imitating numerous aquatic creatures and even taking the form of a human diver. Furthermore, as well as taking charge of the entity itself, all official press releases would completely leave out the incident. What should we make of such claims? Also, all of the lab procedures were performed in parallel with ice samples from Lake Erie, and the two resulting data sets were completely different. As well as this, there are hundreds and hundreds of lakes flowing below the icy surface. Fluid Form is Always On, does not reduce the octopuss STR, does not allow splitting into separate parts, and does not add to the OV/RV versus most Physical Attacks, instead only adding to RV versus blunt impacts (-3 FC total). [67] It was predicted that the water would rise 3040 m in the bottom part of the borehole, but in fact the water rose from the lake to a height of more than 500m. In October of that same year, the work was suspended for that southern summer because of insufficient funding by the federal Russian government. I agree with you that it seems to be a hefty cover up. Example 1: The first casualty could not have been affected by the toxin as the only way to survive at such pressures in water would be within a pressurized vessel or suit. Not least due to the apparent reasons for the confiscation of the strange creature. The Lake Erie sample also had an almost completely different profile of bacterial and eukaryotic phyla. Elements of this report suggest that this was something of a hoax. I also went with Chameleon over Color since the mechanics are clearer with the Chameleon power (including the values to check to see through the disguise). We do not aim to prove nordisprove any of the theories, cases, or reports. Its easy to imagine Luthor financing such a mission, perhaps even using a foreign subsidiary to do so. Organism 46b is a type of enormous octopus, although it has 14 arms instead of eight. And ones far from beneficial for humanity in the long run. At that point, the drill was to be stopped and extracted from the bore hole. Underneath Antarctica's miles of ice, you'll find approximately 400 subglacial lakes.
