Re: Cuban Underwater City by Anonymous on Saturday, 04 July 2009 | The concept that the ruins are cement discards from missle silos is utterly ridiculous. Having seen underwater photos of this city with columns and building foundations, I know your comments have no basis in fact. | [ Reply to This ]
Re: Cuban Underwater City by Anonymous on Thursday, 05 November 2009 | There is also the matter of the original expedition bringing up samples of hard granite that the structures were made from, which is nothing whatsoever similar to cement or modern buiding materials. They had commented that this white granite was not local, that it would have needed to come from Mexico.
The sonar scans were extremely detailed, and the buildings were described as quite huge. You can clearly see what appears to be steps at an entrance, and architectural details that really could only be found in a city design. It is very hard to imagine these things as anything but buildings.
About the only question I have about it is it's age. How the hell did it all get so deep, but remain basically intact? That's a huge mystery.
I'm not surprised no one will fund a real enterpirse to give it an honest look. Scientists are appalled at the idea that modern archeology might have man's timeline all wrong. The only people who are interested in the truth about the matter are those who havent invested their lives and beliefs in the safe old stodgy traditions and histories of civilization going from point A to B to C in a safe, neat, organized, written down way.
If this should turn out to be some 40,000 year old, relatively advanced civilization; everything we think we know about man in the hazy past would collapse in a heap of refuse. Scientists would look like idiots, textbooks would need rewritten.
Cant have that, so, scientists are frightened to death to really look.
Only the truly brilliant, young geniuses...like Einstein, dared to look outside the traditional views, and really consider possibilities that dare to step outside what is assumed to be the scientific truth.
This underwater discovery is much too deep for anyone who isnt bold, young, and willing to look past the curtain of conventions and assumptions. | [ Reply to This ]
Re: Cuban Underwater City by Anonymous on Sunday, 28 October 2012 | Actually, any scientist would jump at the chance to change the history books. This site is little more than Roswell is for UFOlogists. | [ Reply to This ]
Re: Cuban Underwater City by Anonymous on Wednesday, 06 February 2013 | Usually, scientists go out of their way to disprove theories. That is the whole basis of modern cartesian thinking. When something sound too crazy, it usually is unless it's proven and accepted through rational thought, diligent research, methodological measurement, and the slow process of elimination of doubt. Just look at Egyptology. Nobody can rationally explain EXACTLY how why and when the pyramids were constructed except those who believe and build on theories that preceded Einstein's general theory of relativity. Even documentary producers tried to rebuild them using proposed thories and all of their tries were abandoned or collapsed after time. Engineers, mathematicians, geologists, climatologists, astrophysicists all seem to contradict egyptologists when coming up with questions and all of them getting pre-chewed responses from the "experts".
The fact is, nobody really knows, because knowledge sometimes ceases to advance due to special interests. If one theory is disproved, it calls into question an entire field of research. However, as younger scientists invade the field, as new data is compiled, as a larger picture unfolds, the truth pushes forward. Inexorably.
These structures have been around for millenia. They can wait for mankind to grow up. | [ Reply to This ]
