Have we found Atlantis? Secret nuclear bases under ice walls? Pyramids in the middle of a desert that only hid dunes? Google Earth is a well-known software that has expanded its horizons, from our old Earth to the Moon and Mars.The software compiles aerial photographs taken of airplanes, comets and drones, and even balloons.

For years, the most devout of the application have tracked different horizons and, in their virtual journeys, have encountered alleged kidnappings, alien architectures, and impossible geographies.These are the most suggestive places we have encountered during the years.There is still a lot of planet to discover, you can be sure.
THE GHOST ISLAND
We started with a classic, one that was already on a map in 1908, in the Auckland Museum.It is a ghost island discovered by the captain of a ship called Velocity, in 1876 The island Sandy ('Ile de Sable' in French) is supposedly located in French territorial waters, between Australia and New Caledonia.The problem is that it does not exist.
The conclusion is that it could be a pool of pumice or pumice stone generated by volcanic lava.Google Earth has been showing it for years, but when the researchers sailed there they only found sea.Sea where it is impossible to stand: Earth is at a depth of 1,400 meters .
THE PYRAMIDS OF THE MYSTERY
More pyramids? There are, of course, some reach a height of almost 80 meters.
In Upper Egypt, about 12km from the city of Abu Sidhum they found a pyramid formation three times larger than the Great Pyramid of Giza, with a width of 189 meters.Scott investigated the case and concluded that they are artificial structures, but the precariousness of Egypt put the excavations of the place in check.
A DIMENSIONAL PORTAL IN HALF OF THE DESERT
Near the shores of the Red Sea there is an installation that kept several Google Earth users overwhelmed.Were we facing a creation from another world? No: it is a work of art, an artificial installation of 100,000 square meters.
After two years of hard work, Greek artists Danae Stratou, Alexandra Stratou and Stella Constantinides created it and named it "Desert Breath."
GEOGLIFOS IN KAZAJISTAN
In 2007, economist Dmitriy Dey discovered more than 50 geoglyphs north of Kazakhstan, in Central Asia-including some with a curious form of swastika-a kind of Nazca where different civilizations date back.A group of scientists later discovered up to 260 geoglyphs, some reaching 400 meters and the oldest are estimated to date up to 8,000 years .
They were built by the ancient peoples of the area, but their purpose is an absolute mystery.
AND THE PENTAGRAM OF KAZAJSTAN
And we continue with the same territory to talk about a large staff with about 366 meters in diameter, engraved on the surface.The find, located on the southern shore of the Upper Tobol reservoir, in the Tobol Superior Reserve (52º28'47.00 ″ N-62º11'08.67 ″ E), that is, about 22km west of the city of Lisakovsk.
Reality turned out to be much more profane.According to Emma Usmanova, an archeologist in the area, to LiveScience, " is about the outline of a park made in the shape of a star ." park that finally not It was built.
THE WHEELS OF JORDAN
It all started with some images registered by Google Earth.Then, a team of scientists used the Aerial Photo Archive of Archeology in the Middle East (APAAME) to investigate this kind of wheels, called "works of the old" by the Bedouins of the time.
They are located near Jordan's Azraq Oasis.Using Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL), archaeologists discovered that one of these ancient wheels was repaired about 5,500 years ago .Discovery News suggested that they were, as usual, objects of interest and astronomical communication.The power of the stars.
THE LAKE OF BLOOD
In 2007 there was another interesting finding: outside Sadr City in Iraq, at coordinates 33.396157 ° N, 44.486926 ° E, a red lake like blood was found, and, well, it doesn't look red anymore, but the issue brought many researchers to head.
On Time.com they speculated that the slaughterhouses in the area threw some of the blood and cutting of the animals into the river .No authority granted any declaration.Nor was it about sewage.In fact, the subject was never discussed again.
THE ISLAND WITHIN A LAKE WITHIN AN ISLAND
It is a recursive island, an almost fractal phenomenon: on the Philippine Island of Luzon, the northernmost island of the Philippines, at its southern end we can find Lake Taal and, within it, the Taal Volcano, a they turn into active violent eruption.
Oh, and an island inside.And inside the crater, at Vulcan Point, the crater lake, because it's usually full of water. Some eruptions occur from outside this point .
THE BUNKER OF TERROR
On the desert near Mesa Huerfanita, New Mexico, the fascinating forms you can see in the image were found.According to researcher John Sweeney, this is a hidden bunker that belongs to the Church of Scientology .Not certified, in any case.
It is presumed that this underground church ready to resist a nuclear holocaust would hide inside vaults with titanium coffins that would protect gold discs from radiation with the original texts of the founder of this religion, L.Ron Hubbard.
THE CHINESE MILITARY PUZZLE
A headache for the NSA and security agencies like the CIA: because this puzzle seems to be actually an arithmetic model to calibrate the country's spy satellites .It is located in the Gobi Desert , in China.
And there are more formations than were initially found.The coordinates are as follows: 40.458679.93.31314/44 42'40.81 ″ N 93 31'46.18 ″ E/40.41379.93.583741/40.458279.93.388681.
AN OASIS IN HALF OF THE DESERT
Nothing more and nothing less than the lost forest of Mount Mabu.That is what the scientists at the Royal Botanic Gardens, in Kew, found using Google Earth to search for high-land formations across the African continent.This green patch, located in Mozambique, is the largest rainforest in southern Africa .
And it was completely undocumented: 60 square km , located between 1,000 and 1,600 meters on a mountain that has 1,700 meters of altitude, where evergreen trees grow and roam at ease both monkeys and small antilopes or pygmy chameleons.A virgin paradise.
