*"The Secret Research Centre", implies that this secret organisation does research of a highly classified nature, and are not known to the general public, however as the Navy wanted to know if they were responsible for whatever splashed down in the harbour, it would appear they are known to them at least, and, have authority over them.

* Captain Fenton surmises that the Thing is "... an alien life form that intruded into our dimension of time and space."

It is capable of self generating its own a surface force field. | * Captain Fenton surmises that the Thing is "... an alien life form that intruded into our dimension of time and space."
