elizabeth Posted January 6, 2005 #1 Share Posted January 6, 2005 i was just wondering with all the technology we have today if there is a such thing as big foot , lochness monster etc... why cant they find them with these big cameras r whatever they have in space....just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with our very advanced equipment, it is almost impossible to pinpoint these creatures in their vast habitats and take footage. Also, like what canadian said: we know very little about them and their way of life, the places where they live and hide, so it makes the task even more difficult. Most of the ocean life and a good part of life on land still is unexplored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilwolf Posted January 6, 2005 #5 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I wonder if there is such technology like the satellite images, if they are strong enough to even penetrate the murky water of the loch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falco Rex Posted January 7, 2005 #6 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Let's not forget cost. Someone needs to pay for all this high-tech equipment; and even renting it isn't cheap. Not to mention whatever ship, plane vehicles or whatever may be involved depending on whatever you're looking for. Add in the costs of paying for your crew and labor, as well as fees if you want actual scientists with you. And food, lodging, travel expenses and whatever other sundries you care to name and it all adds up to one massive bill.. Governments aren't willing to toss away millions hunting for Cryptids usually. (Why not? They don't mind tossing millions away normally. ) So usually this is all on the bankbooks of private citizens and independant research groups, and their accounts only stretch so far.. The best hope for finding Cryptids probably, is in the hands of Universities and Colleges. But even they have to keep strictly within whatever budget they're given..

Shai_Hulud Posted January 8, 2005 #10 Share Posted January 8, 2005 I won't say noone who went looking haven't found anything yet. Seems to me people go there with there hitech gear and found plenty of anomalies just nothing that can scientifically verify the existence of nessie.

MuFu Posted January 8, 2005 #11 Share Posted January 8, 2005 Well, I am going to assume only our Governement has the sort of technology you are talking about, and if that is the case A, I doubt they have much interest in Cryptids to spend their time looking and would rather use it to spy on other countries or use it on Iraq or what have you OR B, I could be wrong about the above and they have already found out about any of the numerous cryptids and just plan on not informing anyone thats my two cents anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilwolf Posted January 9, 2005 #13 Share Posted January 9, 2005 ha, good one, maybe they are thinking that the people will not believe them and think that the government is lieing to them or some cryptids, say like the megaladon could cause quite a panic, would some people really wanna go on a cruise if they knew there was a shark big enough to munch on the boat for dinner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilwolf Posted January 9, 2005 #15 Share Posted January 9, 2005 just wait, we would probably see signs before we saw them like a thinning whale population and other animal thinning in the ocean and some people that have supposedly sighted the megaladon have claimed that it was a whale at first and then later concluded that it was in fact larger and looked like that of a shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysteryman Posted January 21, 2005 #21 Share Posted January 21, 2005 (edited) i was just wondering with all the technology we have today if there is a such thing as big foot , lochness monster etc... why cant they find them with these big cameras r whatever they have in space....just wondering 438897[/snapback] Didn't really have much time to read previous posts. But I'll post my opinion based on this post anyways. The lake itself, Loch Ness, is an extreme deep, cold, and murky mass of water. The temperature itself is unbearable for any scuba divers or even snorklers to take a look inside, based on what I've read. The sea weed and the lake floor is extremely muddy and very unclear to see. The lake is extremely deep and many people believe its a piece of cake as in just a legend,a fictional legend, and dont spend their time in it because they don't believe in it at all. Many people don't believe in this ancient existing dinosaur (which I myself am lately having trouble believing it) and so don't want to waste their time on it. = My opinion Edited January 21, 2005 by Mysteryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunarWarrior Posted January 21, 2005 #22 Share Posted January 21, 2005 When the US was starting the war with Iraq, they probably had every satilite they have scoping for sadam, but it was still hard to find him. If we were to use a satilite to look for a creature we would only get our hands on a few satilites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seraphina Posted January 21, 2005 #24 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Satellites can't be specifically targeted at something you know...they're in orbit. The best you can get is an occassional glimpse of any specific target, and then only providing that target is along the satellite's trajectory.

nora jones Posted January 21, 2005 #25 Share Posted January 21, 2005 You are right we do have a lot of technology that we didnt have years ago .. and seemingly it should be easier for us to prove the existence of the Big Ones. Well... Scotland Had a few good web cameras. I saw Nessie on it in 1999, but for some reason the more pictures that were produced and generated from these web cams they closed them all down except for one that is too far away from the water to see anything. Web cams are the best way to see something that is considered elusive because after time it blends in with the rest of the surroundings. SO on that Note I feel that on the most part as long as they can keep us guessing and in suspense on this subject the more money they make from us. otherwise why not leave the webcams up and spread more throughout the loch. Other lakes where there have been reports and forests where bigfoot has been seen. Yes we have the technology but it isn't being used in the large scale that it should be. It is either unimportant or so important that the camera have been cut off. I have no idea as to which. However I saw Nessie with my hubby and I know how great a tool a web cam can be. I ever win the Lotto I am going to buy a piece of land Loch Side.. and I am going to install the watch dog from Sony. Then I am going to get me a cabin in the woods and set on up for bigfoot too. I suggest the same to all who want the answers, if you have the money and you have the place to install it set up cameras and get the answers your self because the governments and Scientist do not care what we know or don't know it is all in what is important to them.
