Loch Ness monster breakthrough as radar uncovers 'significant' discovery
Researchers are investigating the possibility of it being "substantial underwater presences or potentially large aquatic creatures".
A breakthrough has been made in the ongoing search for the Loch Ness Monster after radar technology detected a “distinct anomaly” during a routine Deepscan cruise on Loch Ness.
The Loch Ness Centre in Drumnadrochit, which operates these cruises, said that on October 3, its radar system recorded a “sizeable reading”.
The Deepscan cruises use advanced radar and sonar systems to explore Loch Ness.
The radar system is specifically designed to detect objects and formations beneath the loch's surface.
Although the exact nature of the anomaly remains unclear, researchers are investigating the possibility of it being “substantial underwater presences or potentially large aquatic creatures” on the loch bed.
Nagina Ishaq, General Manager for The Loch Ness Centre, said: “These radar readings have raised many questions about what lurks in the depths of Loch Ness.
“Our Deepscan cruise has consistently aimed to deepen our understanding of the loch’s ecosystem, and this finding shows that there are still many unknowns about the loch.”
Further research and analysis are being conducted, with Ishaq adding that the discovery could “mark a major milestone in the search for Nessie.”

The Deepscan cruise, which uses radar, sonar, and a hydrophone, along with a state-of-the-art holographic camera, has been crucial in providing insights into what lurks beneath the surface of Loch Ness.
The latest discovery comes amid growing interest in the Loch Ness Monster.
The Daily Record reported recently that footage from Nessie enthusiast Eoin O'Faodhagain showed a “black hump” on the surface of the water.
The Loch Ness Centre also continues to encourage the public and researchers to join the search for answers to one of Scotland’s greatest mysteries.
