I Was on a sub. When the Periscope Showed Our Future

Описание: I Was on Watch When the Periscope Showed Our Future

I was the watchstander on a routine night watch when the periscope began returning images we could not reconcile with time. At first it was a navigational overlay that lagged by seconds. Then the overlay showed events that hadn’t occurred: a marker on the chart, a ship in a position it would only reach hours later, a broadcast timestamp stamped with tomorrow’s hour. What we were seeing was not a malfunction. It was an anticipatory display.

We logged it, cross-checked optics, and ran diagnostics. Every system that should have corrected the anomaly matched the image instead. Command ordered the optics intact and to continue observation; the message from headquarters carried a single line: “Maintain watch, record nothing beyond authorized channels.” Over the next patrol cycle the periscope showed more—small changes, predictable reactions, then a larger move that predicted an event impacting lives on shore. When the event played out exactly as shown, protocol changed from observation to containment.

This is the declassified testimony of the watch team: what the periscope showed, how the bridge reacted, how analysts tried to rationalize data that anticipated reality, and why a functioning crew was ordered to seal its logs. This is not a supernatural claim. It is a report about instruments, human error margins collapsing, and a chain-of-command choosing silence over explanation.

Watch to the end — the final log entry explains why the watch rotation never returned to normal.

Stay until the last log read — the moment command intervened answers a question you didn’t know to ask.
