here's some images I found through browsing the net about Google earth:
1. Heart shape island.
Not surprisingly this heart-shaped island discovered on Google Earth became a huge hit on Valentine’s Day. It’s located in the Adriatic off the Croatian coast and is currently uninhabited. It’s 130,000 square yards in size and has been named Galesnjak. The owner of the island was not even aware of its shape until he was inundated with requests from romantic couples who wanted to rent the island!
2. Mysterious lines in ocean floor
After this Google Earth find people began wondering if it was the lost city of Atlantis. Excited explorers certainly thought so (or hoped so). The grid was found off the coast of Africa and the markings are believed to be streets. The area is said to be the size of Wales. Google Earth engineers quashed the hype by announcing that the grid was actually a digital artifact created by the sonar boats collecting mapping data, but some people still believe otherwise…
3. Spotted new structures
has spotted new structures in China's
Gobi Desert.
The Telegraph reports that the area is close to the headquarters of China's space program, Jiuquan, Gansu. It is also not so far from an old nuclear test site that China used to use.
There are a number of areas -- rectangle shaped, circular shaped, and airport runway shaped.
Whether the areas are used for space exploration or army testing is unclear, but Tim Ripley, a defense expert,
told the Telegraph that the circular structures look much like the missile test ranges found in the U.S. around Area 51.
