A mystery - can someone tell me what this is?
I saw a video about this and went to Google Earth to check myself. It's a location in New Mexico where there are all these visible markings on the ground which are in the desert, they're not part of the town.
[img]https://i.postimg.cc/bN5wXSnN/map1.png[/img] They go on for miles and miles. [img]https://i.postimg.cc/qRF5Brxn/map2.png[/img] Over all sorts of terrain. [img]https://i.postimg.cc/BQb2cDsq/map3.png[/img] In the video I watched the person walked along one of these lines and at ground level they look like this: [img]https://i.postimg.cc/hPmtBP1L/map4.png[/img] Is there some simple explanation for what these are that not being a map type of person, I just don't know about? :confused: |
Maybe it is some kind of road? Really don't know since I'm not from Mexico.

This is some of the detail up closer.

I mean, the photo above looks like a giant car park :p.
Otherwise I'd say it looks like a grid or such like. Quite odd. |

Ancient.
Aliens. |
@Rai, They do! But for giant cars.
[img]https://i.postimg.cc/bwJ6vhP3/map15.png[/img] The yellow highlighted length is 294.5 metres And the width is 97.5 metres It's hard to see but the "roads" bits often end in circular nodes of some kind: [img]https://i.postimg.cc/rm2hYczc/map15.png[/img] Anyway, I'm very confused about what this could be. :confused: |
Maybe the area wasn't always desert and was inhabited at some point and these are remnants of roads that used to exist?

If I had to guess, I'd say it's a case where a property developer bought lots of desert to start developing a city. They marked out the lots and the roads, but the people never came, and so now only the roads remain. I know that this is the story behind [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_City,_California]California City, California[/url] (very creative name that), which is similarly mostly empty grids. I learned about that one from a random Youtube video as well.
Edit to add: Found the video again. [youtube]gO3LUhFwx6k[/youtube] He is not talking about the place you found, but I think it seems reasonable to think that it might be a similar thing. |
Could be a landing site for aliens, maybe they intended to land there to take a select few people if 2012 had happened.
Or it could be a potential location for another Area 51. Maybe they plan to build Stargate Command there, anyone know where the Stargate is? It could also be a landing site for the lost city of Atlantis. |
