Another interesting view from space...

Here's a new geological conundrum courtesy of the Mysterious East: A group of people studying online maps stumbled across a series of strange patterns in the Chinese desert large enough to be seen from space. The unusual white designs appear to have been etched into the ground and their creators clearly don't lack for ambition: They are over one mile long and 3,000 feet wide. The researchers have yet to identify the silver or white material used to fabricate these outsize desert grids.

You can see a detailed satellite view of the desert pattern here.

Ahh the view from space, as you look down upon Mother Earth did you notice there are no boundary's that divide our countries, no limititation's, no religion's and just perhaps only one race on earth, and living together as One. Thanks Paul, Awesome!

Kinda makes all the ''issues'' look just plain dumb, doesn't it?

i caught myself looking at the upper half of the vid - the stars - first...
when i looked down finally, the stuff i liked best was the lightning down t/here.

If everyone always held this perspective of the planet, i guess we'd have no probs at all.

can you imagine what they must feel up there, rotating in black matter, looking @ this little pearl...must be orgasmic...

they must also feel they OWN this little pearl, being able to spy on it, off it, @ will...while little insignificant brutes are sleeping somewhere at the crust...insignificant little creatures not worthy of accumulated knowledge...

hence the arrogance
