“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.”
– Andre Gide
In August of 2014, Russian cosmonauts aboard the international space station discovered something incredibly unexpected covering parts of the windows – living sea plankton. If sea life can thrive in space, might the reverse be true as well? Might there be alien life forms that inhabit our seas? Throughout history, there have been tales of strange creatures hidden in Earth’s waters. While many discount stories of sea monsters as purely mythological, it is estimated that Earth’s oceans are home to between 700,000 to one million species – and shockingly, two-thirds of those species still remain unknown. Considering the recent discovery that some sea life can survive in outerspace, is it possible that tales of giant creatures like the Kraken and the Loch Ness monster are evidence of extraterrestrial entities taking refuge beneath the seas?

Strange, sharp-toothed predators…
| “Their genes don’t match up with anything else that we have on Earth.”
– David Wilcock (Author/Filmmaker), |
…Multi-legged behemoths…
| “The Kraken scared humans for centuries.”
– Loren Coleman (Dir., International Cryptozoology Museum), |
…And ravenous reptiles that prey on humans.

“Children are warned to stay away from bodies of water because the kappa will actually drag them in and drown them.” – Ken Gerhard (Cryptozoologist / Author) |
Throughout history, there are accounts of bizarre and frightening creatures inhabiting our waters. Is it possible that they come not from our lakes and oceans, but from somewhere far more remote?

“Could it be possible that some of that life that we’ve discovered at the bottom of the ocean had its origin in outer space?” – Giorgio A. Tsoukalos |
Since the dawn of civilization, mankind has credited its origins to gods and other visitors from the stars. What if it were true? Did extraterrestrial beings really help to shape our history? And if so might they have come in the form of creatures of the deep?
