Speaking of pop sci delusions, an email bud of mine sent me these coordinates and asked for my opinion:
32.508471, -76.201627
Google Maps. This takes one off the coast of Charleston SC and a few hundred miles west of Bermuda. Selected satellite view.
Can someone tell me where all these straight lines on the seabed come from?
I see a pattern making the numeral 4, with its horizontal bar heading up northeast a long way and then making a hairpin turn; the line then crosses the 4’s intersection exactly.
About 50 miles southeast there’s another batch of straight lines with hairpin turns.
About 150 miles northeast there’s a line that runs along an undersea riverbed or canyon, for a considerable distance.
I’m assuming there’s a reasonable explanation, since they look rather like flight paths or shipping lanes. Except no shipping lane is going to sketch out a 4 like that.
So, wth are they?
Now that is interesting. Thanks.
They are the Aliens sending you your Lotto numbers...
Actually, they are probably “artifacts” of the Google Earth graphics program.
Anyone know for sure, one way or another?
Spots where multibeam sonar has actually mapped things better.
Not all of the ocean has been mapped, let alone mapped accurately.
Where they do have data, they have those bizarre lines.
Look for the lines showing the shipping lanes from NY further north.
Regular spaghetti monster.
The Atlantis Interstate Hiway Systems ... natch!
IMO, most people think that modern man is the epitome of advancement, but that is not necessarily the case. IMO man has advanced technologically, and then destroyed or been destroyed only to start over. Indian tales of flying machines and nuclear war, artifacts possibly on other planets or moons of planets are just waiting to be found. Will we think “aliens” visited Mars when we find evidence of visitation, or that Earthlings went there thousands of years ago, then our forebearers civilization was destroyed?
Check out the Willapa bay in WA state. You can see submerged fields and roads underwater from before the ending of the last ice age I am assuming.
If you will use google earth and look to the east of Bermuda you will see much more of these lines but in starker relief. What you are seeing is the result of spreading and faulting along the Mid Atlantic ridge which is a spreading center for the earth’s crust. The reason they are not as evident to the West of Bermuda is sediment deposition off the North American Continent.
