In the waters of Rhode island had a mysterious object with metal «tentacles»

Strange object found during low tide in the waters of the Atlantic on East Beach in Westerly, state of Rhode island.

It is a ring, from which are eight metallic «tentacles», and nobody knows what it really can be.
«He’s like a metal starfish, because these eight «legs» that go from the centre,» he told WPRI-TV Peter Brockmann, President of the Association of East Beach.

The object was discovered about 60-70 yards West of the lighthouse Watch Hill. Surprisingly, the locals don’t remember this «starfish» was here last summer. Employees of the harbour, too, have never seen it before and have no idea about the intended subject.

Brockmann added that the object is very heavy. At Rocky’s Tree Service attempted to move it, but was forced to stop work due to weather conditions.

Of course, the locals immediately began talking about the aliens, but all may not be as mysterious and romantic. As reported by Peter Brockmann, he sent requests to different academic institutions, and he came up with the answer of Oceanography University of Rhode island.

They believe that this can be a part of a device used by the corps of engineers of the U.S. army to monitor flows and rainfall.
