What you can not find on satellite maps. Especially when you have a rich imagination and a real detective scent.
website collected a collection of amazing finds on Google maps made by ordinary users. Some of them have found an explanation, but some still remain a mystery.
Coca-Cola in the mountains of Chile
Contemporary designs, visible only from a bird's eye view, create brands. The most famous is the giant logo of the Coca-Cola company in Chile. Created in 1986, it contains 70,000 branded bottles of the drink.
A strange pyramid in the middle of Antarctica
This hill raises many questions: hidden in the snows of Antarctica, with a strange relief, can it be the legacy of another ancient civilization? Supporters of this theory believe that it was she who once attracted the attention of the Third Reich. Others are sure: the mysterious pyramid may be the legacy of the legendary Atlantis.

A huge collection of aircraft from different eras
Military and civilian, old and new - all these aircraft are located next to the small Belgrade airport in the open Air Museum. Lovers can take a walk, viewing the exhibits in detail from a closer distance: there are more than 200 aircraft, including the wreckage of American combat aircraft "Stealth" and F-16 Fighting Falcon.
It is a small village in Niger with no more than 50 families. And everyone is busy with only one thing - the extraction of salt from these ponds with mud. Each pond is filled with formation water, into which a special clay containing salt is placed. After settling, the salt water is drained and filtered, and after evaporation, salt crystals are obtained.
Giant Turkish flag in Cyprus
You can see the flag of the Republic of Turkey in the north of Cyprus. Its length is a good half a kilometer. The inscription next to it is a phrase uttered by the first President of Turkey during the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Republic of Turkey: "How happy is he who can call himself a Turk!"
Alien ship
It looks like a real spaceship has landed in Texas. But it's actually a local landmark: the Futuro house, designed by Finnish architect Matti Suuronen in the 1960s. Once such houses were popular, but
A group of Internet users who describe creatures and phenomena unknown to science discovered a strange monster on Google maps. The monster resembles the legendary Kraken - a giant mythical squid (or octopus) from Scandinavian folklore.
According to the conspiracy theorists who discovered the monster, it lives off the coast of Antarctica. You can look at the "kraken" yourself. It is enough to open Google maps in satellite mode and drive the coordinates into the search (63 ° 2'56.73 ″ S 60 ° 57'32.38 ″ W). Or follow this link.
If you look closely, then from the "head" to the "tail" it really is 30 meters. But in general, the "tail" looks like it is the middle of the body of a giant squid. So, taking into account the tentacles, it can be longer than 60 meters.
However, there were also those who do not consider the unidentified object a "kraken" or even a living creature. True, the versions of skeptics look no less conspiracy theories. For example, a UFO specialist told the UFO Sightings Daily [specializes in paranormal news] that the object in the photo could be almost a flying saucer.
If you look closely at the picture, you will see that it is clearly an artificially made object, an underwater UFO, emerging from the depths of the ocean.
The Kraken is a giant-sized fictional mythical monster that attacks ships. The name of the monster comes from the Icelandic language. It is believed that it was the Icelandic sailors who first saw and described this creature.
Scholars are skeptical about the stories about the Kraken. Although in nature there really is a genus of giant squids, individual individuals of which reach 15 meters in length.
Google Maps users often find something interesting on them. So, in December last year, on the panoramas of Melbourne, a photo of a corpse, which the service did not bother to "cover up".
On Google Earth maps, off the coast of Deception Island near Antarctica, they saw something resembling either a giant squid, or a pliosaur, or even a UFO. Experts are at a loss as to what it really is.
The discovery was made by Scott Waring on April 9, 2016, when he studied the area with coordinates 63 ° 2 "56.73" S60 ° 57 "32.38" W in Google Earth. It is unclear where he got the coordinates from, but it was in this area that he noticed an object around which ocean water was bubbling, according to The Daily Mail.
“Very similar to a kraken,” the discoverer noted, adding that the creature can be up to 120 meters long from head to tips of tentacles. “I measured it. The length of what looks out to the surface is about 30 m, but what is hidden under the water can exceed 60 m with the tentacles, ”he explained. Waring also did not rule out that he found a pliosaurus - an extinct prehistoric animal.
Another conspiracy expert on Hotspot put forward the theory that the found creature looks like an artificially created object, such as an underwater UFO emerging from the depths of the ocean.
According to Scandinavian folklore, the Krakens lived in the seas from Norway to Iceland and all the way to Greenland. The mythical squid, hiding in the depths, sank the ships entirely, enveloping them with their tentacles, and that is why the facts about its real existence did not survive. The story of the kraken dates back to 1180 - to the king of Norway Sverrir Sigurdsson, and the Danish naturalist Eric Pontoppidan, bishop of Bergen (1698-1774), compiled the first detailed summary of marine folklore about the sea monster. He wrote that the kraken is an animal "the size of a floating island."
Kraken is, or a pliosaur, or a UFO, or maybe even a giant whale - whatever lurks in the dark arctic waters, it makes them seethe and foam.
Another mysterious denizen of the Deep was spotted last week and has brought fresh rumors and theories to the Loch Ness Monster. Tourist Tony Bligh filmed a video at the popular A82 Wellington Lay-By Allt Cumhang Wall, overlooking Loch Ness. The video caught the mysterious humps rising from the water. Locals deny their affiliation with Nessie, claiming that this is just an optical illusion caused by the waves that were left by a boat passing there.
Ufologists from the MexicoGeek project, using Google Earth, discovered spider-sized bus... The insect was found on one of the unknown islands and was basking in the sun at that moment.
Famous ufologist Scott Warringwho helped spread the giant spider video, reports that the footage is just further proof of how little science knows about super-large insect species living on ocean shores. He cautions that perhaps the next time they go fishing, anyone could become a spider's meal and should be extremely careful.
There are also suspicions that it may be a giant crab, not a spider.
But many in the world doubt the credibility of this video. Usually, when ufologists post something like that, they indicate the coordinates of Google Maps or Googl Earth of the places shown in the photo or video. All this is done so that those who doubt can check on their own, that is, the coordinates indicate reliability.
In this case, there is no data on the coordinates, and it is impossible to say for sure whether the spider is real or it is someone's falsification, because it is not even known where in the world the ufologists found this huge insect.
Looking at photos of our planet taken from space, you can find many intriguing and sometimes inexplicable things, especially if you use your imagination while viewing.
Bright Side has collected mysterious objects and places that users have found on Google maps.
Wasteland Guardian
In November 2006, Lynn Hickox discovered on Google maps a geological formation located in the Canadian province of Alberta that resembles the head of an Indian with an earpiece in his ear. This image appeared as a result of prolonged soil erosion, and the wire from the earpiece and ear is the road leading to the oil rig and the rig itself.
Bloody lake in Iraq
In 2007, near the Iraqi city of Sadr was discovered blood red lake... The versions of the origin of the anomaly were very different - from sewage to waste from a nearby slaughterhouse. But the reason for this color of the water has not been established. Today, the lake looks just like the others.
Heart shaped island
Galshnyak Island , owned by Croatia, was discovered on satellite maps in 2009. The island quickly became popular, not only on the Internet, but also among travelers - before that, an uninhabited part of the land has turned into a place of pilgrimage for lovers from all over the world.
Fingerprint maze
A labyrinth in the shape of a human fingerprint, laid out of limestone tiles, is located in Hove Park in Brighton, UK. It was created in 2006 based on a sketch by artist Chris Drury.
Murder scene on a lake in Almere, the Netherlands
Satellite image taken in 2009 in the Netherlands was discovered by one of the users of the Reddit website. The scene seemed like a murder, and a heated discussion arose on the site about what it really was.
However, no bloody crime was recorded in this picture. Almere resident Jacqueline Kenen identified the cruel "killer" as her golden retriever, who, according to her, loves to swim. And what was mistaken for traces of blood, in fact, is just water, which is glass from the dog's fur.
Swastika building
The swastika-shaped building belongs to the US Navy and was noticed by Google users in 2006. The command of the Navy said that the resemblance to this figure was found only at the construction stage, when it was no longer possible to change anything.
In 2007 $ 600 thousand were allocated to change the landscape and install solar panels so that they hide the shape of the building. As of 2017, thanks to solar panels, the building no longer resembles a Nazi symbol.
Dove masked people
This street shot was taken in the Japanese town of Musashino in March 2013. This "composition" was built on purpose - users and the site team Daily portal zafter learning that the streets will be photographed for Google, decided to immortalize herself on the map.
A ship overgrown with trees
This abandoned and tree-covered ship was captured by satellite on the Parramatta River near Sydney, Australia. The ship called SS Ayrfield was launched in 1911. In 1972 it was decommissioned and since then the ship has been moored at the mouth of the river.
UFO in Romania
An object similar to the shape of a UFO from science fiction films was discovered on one of the abandoned farms near the Romanian city of Timisoara. The find gave rise to a lot of rumors about an alien ship's visit to Earth. In fact, a flying saucer is abandoned pumping stationwhich used to supply Timisoara with water.
Breath of the desert
Strange circles in the Sahara desert were created in 1997 by the hands of people who are members of the D.A.S.T. The sculpture is made of two spirals emanating from the center, one of which is made of cones expanding with distance from the beginning, and the second is made of recesses constructed according to the same principle.
As conceived by the creators, the spiral should disappear over time under the influence of erosion. However, even now, 20 years later, it is perfectly visible even from space.
Military aircraft graveyard
Airbase "Davis-Monten" is located near the city of Tucson in the United States and is possibly the largest aircraft conservation site in the world - about 4,400 aircraft and 40 spaceships are idle here. Every year about 400 pieces of equipment arrive here and the same amount is sold or destroyed.
Strange creature from Loch Ness
Jason Cook, 25, while looking at satellite images of Loch Ness, noticed a creature swimming in its waters. And although there is no reliable evidence of the existence of the famous monster, many believed that it was the Google satellite that captured it.
