I'm pretty sure this article is not true by the way.

These underground water reserves are the source of the global flood:
"on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights." Gen 7:11

There's not proof for a global flood, only localized flooding from the end of the ice age.

Actually both Scientific American and Smithsonian Science have articles on it, so that gives it some good street cred.
Though per Scientific American, the "ocean" is water bound to rock, and not say something we could drill down and plop a submarine into. Still a ton of energy down there, assuming we could safely get it...

The Younger Dryas event begs to differ.
Which falls in line with pretty much every continents indigenous legends of a massive flooding.

There's a thing called continental drift which explains how fossils got to where they were found.

Also, the biblical flood is based on older myths from thhe Gilgamesh and Atrahasis epics.
A good link to this.

I remember reading a few years ago about astronomers detecting giant clouds of water floating through space.
but I suspect it would be hard, rocky -type stuff.

Located 30 billion miles away in a quasar – a massively powerful cosmic body – the water cloud is estimated to contain at least 140 trillion times the amount of water in all the seas and oceans here on Earth.

I’m curious about what kind of species are down there. The biggest ones tend to be in the deepest waters.
Additionally, could this be where the USO’s are hiding?

Idiotic nonsense, proving that people will believe anything. Any water way down there (being lighter than anything way down there) would have made it's way to the surface over the millions of years of earth's history.

From an engineering standpoint that is not the case.
If it is trapped in rock, which it very well could be at any given time, it would not move at all. Water is one of the densest materials on Earth and can not be compressed. It does not give way under pressure, it simply transmits that pressure somewhere else - hydraulics.
If it is in a sealed environment it could remain liquid despite incredibly high temperatures. The danger then would be when it gets free and is allowed to expand into super-heated steam. The ratio is appox. 300-1. And at those kinds of temps, it would happen in a fraction of a second. In fact, it is literally called flashing.
