A diving robot discovered the holes last Saturday. This happened during an ocean exploration of the Azores plateau in the Atlantic Ocean. However, scientists have no idea where these holes come from.

“Okay Facebookers, time for a riddle,” writes the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on Facebook. “Although they appear to be man-made, the small mounds of sediment around the holes suggest that they were excavated by … something.”
The responses are already pouring in. “Perhaps a company is exporting seabed musters,” responds one. “That could explain the straight lines and the distance between the holes.” Another user suggests it could be a crab.
There are also users who suggest that aliens have made the holes: ‘Something left of Atlantis’.
