A former submarine worker has made startling claims about disturbing logbooks allegedly maintained by the US Navy, which reportedly document mysterious fast-moving unidentified objects traversing the world's oceans. The revelations come as official government reports confirm multiple unexplained sightings, reigniting debates about what might be operating in the deep.
The Submariner's Testimony
A Reddit user going by the name Dabier claims to have worked alongside a retired Cold War submariner, who shared details about these so-called "fast movers." This term describes unidentified aerial or submerged objects that move at extraordinarily high velocities, often detected by sophisticated military tracking systems.
The Reddit user explained he posed questions after encountering online discussions about how authorities monitor these mysterious phenomena. According to his account, the retired serviceman worked in the sonar room, making him particularly qualified to discuss underwater detection.
Classified Logbook System
"He said that they would put all 'unidentified' contacts in the unidentified section of this logbook style thing they had," the Reddit user reported, distinguishing these from biological noises that commonly appear on sonar. "It was like a file with all the navy's information on how other ships sound."
The submariner allegedly described particularly puzzling entries that defied conventional explanation. Some recordings captured objects moving at incredible speeds with no identifiable source in the vicinity, while others featured strange auditory phenomena like buzzing sounds that didn't match any known vessel or natural occurrence.
"He said there were some entries they made which were really weird, either very fast with nothing in the area that could've made that noise or just weird as in strange noises like buzzing or something that's clearly not natural but sounds like no ship they've ever heard," the account continued.
The logbooks and accompanying recordings were reportedly collected from submarines periodically, though their ultimate destination and analysis remained unclear to the crew members documenting the phenomena.
Official Investigations and Unexplained Cases
These claims emerge alongside official documentation revealing 21 unexplained UFO sightings that have undergone government investigation. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) submitted this report to Congress, acknowledging these puzzling discoveries that continue to challenge investigators.
The document contains eyewitness testimonies that have undergone scrutiny, though many cases remain unresolved. Among the most notable incidents is the infamous 'GOFAST' footage showing a U.S. Navy F/A-18 jet crew's encounter with an unidentified aerial phenomenon, alongside video of a rapidly moving silver sphere recorded by an American drone operating in the Middle East.
Range of Reported Phenomena
Reports of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), commonly referred to as UFOs, have included diverse sightings ranging from a green fireball and mysterious flashing lights to a multicoloured jellyfish-like object and a six-foot rocket-shaped device.
While some objects have eventually been identified as mundane items such as weather balloons, bird flocks, or satellite debris, a significant number of cases continue to baffle military and intelligence analysts despite extensive investigation.
Official Statements and Congressional Oversight
AARO has issued statements attempting to contextualize these findings while addressing public speculation. "It is important to underscore that, to date, AARO has discovered no evidence of extraterrestrial beings, activity, or technology," the organization stated clearly.
The office further clarified that "none of these resolved cases substantiated advanced foreign adversarial capabilities or breakthrough aerospace technologies," though this leaves unanswered questions about the nature of the unexplained cases.
Regarding the remaining mysteries, AARO explained they are "working closely with its Intelligence Community and Science and Technology partners to understand and attribute the 21 cases received this reporting period that merit further analysis based on reported anomalous characteristics and/or behaviours."
The organization has committed to providing "immediate notification to Congress should AARO identify any cases that indicate or involve a breakthrough in foreign adversarial aerospace capability," establishing formal channels for reporting significant discoveries.
Expert Perspectives and Calls for Transparency
Mike Gold, formerly NASA's Associate Administrator for Space Policy, has urged greater transparency and scientific investigation into these phenomena. Addressing the House of Representatives, Gold suggested that "the truth is out there" and advocated for NASA to take a leading role in analyzing suspected UFO trajectories to trace their potential origins.
This perspective highlights growing calls within both government and scientific communities for systematic, data-driven approaches to understanding these mysterious occurrences, rather than dismissing them outright or relegating them to classified files without public accountability.
The submariner's alleged testimony about Navy logbooks tracking unexplained underwater phenomena adds another dimension to ongoing investigations, suggesting that mysterious objects might be operating not just in our skies but beneath our oceans as well.
