Thanks for the screen shot Ektar, lots of damage there. - to tell you the truth I took a break from BP disaster today after reading some outright lies in news articles from BP and the Gov. this morning. Thanks for the good work.

The first crack photo proves the white crusty stuff I mentioned in regard to another photo wasn't sand. Just look at the way it broke along the crack.

I watched one of the ROVs (OC_UHD31 I think) for a while earlier and it was near zero visibilty for the whole time. I didn't save it, because I don't know what good it's doing - nobody seems to care anymore.

Thank you CrazyDaisy & ttawt I really appreciate it...
Everything has been busy (swirls & hydrates)
stupid cams, or Explosions...I still haven't had a chance

Ektar

Hey guys, thanks for the updates. I was watching Skandi Neptune 2 at around 3 o'clock GMT yesterday afternoon, and you're right Ektar, first it showed huge bed fissures, then there was massive billowing and it didn't look like sediment or silt to me.. it was that clouded that in the end you couldn't see anything. The rest of the Rovs were pretty static.. makes you wonder just what the rov ops are getting paid for?? I read in one post that they're more bothered being busy looking for amphipods and serpernts

www.serpentproject.com...

I know how frustrating it must be for folks that 'know' what's happening down there and no-one in the mainstream is discussing it, by that, I mean that some of us KNOW what condition the sea floor's in, we've SEEN it! A blatant ploy in my eyes to just 'sweep it under the carpet', and so far with some, their tactic is working. I think that some people are tired, tired of being 'lied' to, sick of the media blackout, sick of no-one daring to speak up in case they're stopped in their tracks, by a shrill or someone a 'bit higher up', hence the lack of discussion these past few days.

I come on here to see what's happening with BP, as I know everything the MSM is putting out, is a load of crap.

I'll keep checking the Rovs when I can anyway. Sure there's a lot of lurkers on here too so don't think your screenshots or analysis is falling on deaf ears anyone

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! It's very much 'appreciated'

This thread is keeping me updated,i feel i have nothing to add,you guys been doing a great job keep it up, heaps like me are watching this thread.

Sorry I wasn't on yesterday.....I was busy all day....I will try to get to the cams today, but if not, I will be back Wednesday morning. Going out of town tomorrow. Keep up the good work! Maybe see you sometime today....just catching up on reading right now!........Kat

This is the "climax" of the anomaly, but I have the rest of the videos on my feed in chronological order..mods feel free to delete if irrelevant.

Ektar.....do you mean the small light? Or the dark black?

Maybe in the cracks yes...but most of what you see that's 'white' on Skandi 1 or 2, is just the headlights reflecting off the seafloor plus the color filters they have on the feeds.

In the past, but it's possible they started again, the ROVs used to 'plow' in the sand. That means using the propellers to move stuff around so they can see whats under it, or in most cases it was to hide seepages or bubbles and blobs in 'dust' so the ROVs could move quickly, leaving us to think it was a propeller.

I think people care, but for the most part there are a hand full of us doing updates whenever we are watching the feeds. As what some members say, they don't feel the need to comment all the time when we are doing great updates ourselves. A lot of people read, just don't comment. Also the feeds have been quite quirt, unless it's a freak incident like the floornado. So there maybe less people watching, but those are the ones likely just reading information here, or unfortunately the MSM.

If you can beat the color filters on the feeds in Windows Media, you can actually see white bubbles seep from the seafloor sometimes on Hos Achiever Maxx - ROV 1. My color settings at 200% screen size: Hue -4, Brightness -9, Saturation 9, Contrast between 15 and 17. Screen shots will suck, and video will be worse, so recommend a manual view.

EDIT: never mind it moved

Dragonfire...

I can't stay long, but tell me if you think something is going on at Q4000 rov 1. Hard to see I know, but looks turbulent coming from the right side of the screen and the ROV is jumping from 4700 to 4300 feet (aprox) and I saw a couple of huge white blobs go by.

I also have seen the 'white blobs' sometimes. Not sure what they are. Someone said some are likely jellyfish. Many of the ROVs bob up and dont a lot when they hood on to some of the flotation devices...hence why Skandi 1 is usually seasick waiting to happen.

HOS ROV 1 is back at the spot with the bubbles.

Thanks! I was wondering what those things were! Gotta run for now, but I'll try to come back later today.....get some rest ok?

I'm not sure what he's referring to...unless it's a bubble
or something that moves away from the light at the top
and it moves to the left between frames 7-18...but as the footage continues the light or whatever it is shrinks down...can see
that the floor is erupting...I don't if it's a light, a reflection, or stuff erupting cause it does appear to explode back up...

Ektar

Bubbles from the seafloor on Hos Achiever Maxx - ROV 1. I had to try and take off their color filter to see the bubbles, and even then you barely see them..watch towards the center of the screen and towards the left. Appear to be white and are coming from the same spots every few seconds.

I just watched the Hos Achiever Maxx - ROV 2 surface at 12:33pm central twas neat! Thought I was watching an ROV being hoisted aboard a few minutes ago but lost track of the feed. Mayhaps the beginning of a "bug-out"?

Thanks. It was a good read. I don't think it was a success. They know it's screwed and are just trying to hide as much as they can so they can just be done with it.

Just for the record, I thought I would say that I am one of the readers to catch up on whats going on. I just dont say anything unless I feel I have something to add. You guys are doing a great job so dont get discouraged by any means. I know I cant trust the news and they hardly say anything anyway. This is the Real news feed!

I know! I love watching then descend and ascend because you can see the changes in the water environment, sometimes you can see schools of fish, then as it goes deeper, it gets darker and the whole atmosphere changes. They do that routinely for maintenance etc.

Thankyou! I know I needed that! It sometimes seems like no one is here, but I forget not everyone posts every day....BTW LOVE your avatar!*winx*.....Kat
