SiTuner06 · 10-10-2005, 05:19 PM

No it's not Area 51, I found Area 51 on Google Earth and put it as one of my points of interest.

Has anyone ever seen this plane on one of the runways?

http://maps.google.com/maps?t=k&hl=e...02028,0.003659

Interesting. The whole area has lots of cool looking patterns.

**webby** · 05-16-2006, 05:07 PM

yeah there are a ton of those green circles in that area. At least from reading around on the net they are irigation circles for crops. There is a center to the circle and the device rotates around in a circle to water that area.

8thgenuser · 05-16-2006, 05:10 PM

If you go to this spot in Google Earth, turn on the terrain, tilt and pan down, you can actually see the depth of those craters. Very cool!

Lots of cool, weird, freaky, interesting places seen on Google Maps.

Reversi?

***Rainman*** · 05-18-2006, 12:42 AM

Cool,
I just looked my house up, went outside and waved to the camera. I then ran back inside and watched myself wave, because the delay is about 15 seconds too long.

i am really kidding.
