Invisible Residents: The Reality of Underwater UFOs: A Disquisition Upon Certain Matters Maritime, and the Possibility of Intelligent Life Under the Waters of this Earth

Rate this book
Human beings usually live on land, on only about a quarter of the earth's surface. In recent years, they have begun to explore the space above their planet, but what of the 75 percent of Earth that lies beneath water? Have we been ignoring the mountain of evidence that something is happening down there?

Ivan T. Sanderson believes that we have and, in this extensively researched account of water-centered happenings, has come to some startling conclusions.

In "Invisible Residents," Sanderson gathers reports of objects that have risen from, descended into, and maneuvered over reservoirs, rivers, lakes, seas, and oceans.

He correlates such superficially unrelated studies as analyses by engineers of ancient art objects that may represent air-to-water craft, the appearance of catherine wheels of light in the Indian Ocean, the time-speed incongruities experienced by flyers, and the disappearance - without a trace - of air and water craft, and of shipboard travelers in certain "lozenge-shaped" areas around the world.

"These matters," he says, “would seem to have nothing more in common than that they all have something to do with water. There is an underlying unity - an underwater civilization that has been here for a very long time and which has evolved here, which prefer to operate from the bottom of the hydrosphere."

Supported by charts, appendices, and references, "Invisible Residents" arrives at its hypotheses by scientific methods, but with a fresh, unbiased open-mindedness that opens new frontiers and excites the imagination.

Ivan T. Sanderson is a well-known naturalist and scientist. His many books on nature and natural phenomena include "Animal Treasure," "Living Treasure,” and "Uninvited A Biologist Looks at UFOs."
