You guys gotta check this out!!

Courtesy of the un-fuckin-believable new Satellite feature at maps.google.com

Go to maps.google.com

Type in "Rachel Nevada" without the quotes, in the search bar at the top.

Zoom out 2 levels.

Switch to Satellite view.

There will be a white spot west of Rachel, Nevada (at the far left of the screen). Double-click on it and zoom in as much as you can.

Who knows what that is?

A salt lake?

Posted by infinity HiGH on Apr-22-2005 05:52:

Why would there be landing strips going into a lake?

are you implying that it's a mountain of coke, and the long thingy is not an airstrip but some sort of pipe for snorting ?

Sorry to burst your bubble, but satellite images of Area 51 have been publicly available for over a decade. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that if there's anything they want to hide there, they sure aren't going to leave it sitting out in the open where a satellite could pick it up.

Apparently I am not going to get any work done today because I am addicted to this damn satellite thing......thanks a lot.

thats pretty fucking sick...too bad when you hit a place with shit sat maps...ie ann arbor mi my alma mater|

Area 51 hasn't been used for a long time now. They've flooded the whole area with radiation so that nobody will be able to go there for a very long time. It's still guarded with Apache's and whatnot, but if you ask me, they've moved the whole base to another location, one that they might actually be able to keep secret this time.

It is area 51, however, I'm confused as to why they would allow the buildings of the base to be shown but not the adjasent fields. I've seen photos taken by the surrounding mountains and the area that is whited out is nothing more then barren desert with some landing strips/taxi ways.

Posted by Dervish on Apr-22-2005 14:08:

Take a look at that. I followed one of the road/lines from the base.

Weird huh? The roads is what makes it look dodgy, otherwise I'd have just thought it was hills or something.

LINKY

And Closer

Looks like the were flattening the land then testing explosives or something?

The roads came later I think because sometimes the roads "avoid" the craters.
