Starting in the 1960s and continuing until the 1980s, sailors in Russian submarines patrolling the North Atlantic and Arctic Ocean would occasionally hear strange sounds. These underwater noises reminded the submarine crews of frog croaks, so they called the sounds “quackers” (from the Russian word for frog sounds). The sources of the sound seemed to be moving with great speed and agility; however, the submarines’ sonar (a method of detecting objects underwater) was unable to detect any solid moving objects in the area. There are several theories about what might have caused the odd sounds.

The first theory suggests that the strange noises were actually the calls of male and female orca whales during a courtship ritual. Orca whales are known to inhabit the areas where the submarines were picking up the bizarre noises. Orcas have been studied extensively, and the sounds they make when trying to attract a male are similar to those that the submarines were detecting.

A second idea is that the sounds were caused by giant squid. Giant squids are giant marine invertebrates that live deep in the ocean and prey on large fish. They are difficult to detect by sonar because they have soft bodies with no skeleton. Not much is known about giant squid behavior, but their complex brains suggest they are intelligent animals. It is possible they have the ability to emit sound, and perhaps they approached the submarines out of curiosity.

A third theory suggests the Russian submarines were picking up stray sounds from some military technology, like another country’s submarines that were secretly patrolling the area. Perhaps the foreign submarines did not register on sonar because they were using a kind of technology specifically designed to make them undetectable by sonar. The strange froglike sounds may have been emitted by the foreign submarines unintentionally.

Both the reading and the lecture talk about a strange sounds that were heard by Russian submarines between 1960s to 1980s. The reading porpuses three hypothesis for this phenomen but the lacturer casts doubs on them and she thinking the reasons which states in the reading is not reasonable. Also she says that no one khows the realy cause of these sounds.

First off, the author porpuses a hypothesis in which the Orca whales during their courtship prodouce bizarre noises. But the lecturer refuse that and states the Ocra whales are living at the surface of water but the quackers were heard in the deep by Russian submarines. So she beleives this reason is not logical.

Secondly, the writer talks about giant squid that live deep on the ocean and feed on large fish. The writer beleives it may have a possible to make sounds by the squids to deceptive the submarines due to their astuteness. On the other hand, the lecturer states that the quackers are not heard after 1980s while the squids are alive in the ocean temporary.

Finally, the author states that the quacker's source may be generated by some military technology that may realated to another country's submarines. But the lecturer beleives no technology have been stablished yet to move quickly and fast as quackers' source do.
