Colossus is the name given to a powerful, ultra-low-frequency sound detected in 2003 by hydrophones in the Pacific Ocean. Lasting about a minute, its origin remains unverified. The sound's name references its immense acoustic energy. While some speculate it was caused by a massive iceberg scraping the seafloor or a large military exercise, no definitive explanation has been confirmed, leaving it an enigmatic entry in the catalog of ocean sounds.
