I was just scouting around the net looking at some ufo sites etc. as I often do and came across a post about a UFO sighting on Google Maps
 Here's a link to the Google Maps site which will show it:http://maps.google.com/maps?q=33409&ll=26.748651,-80.074550&spn=0.005622,0.007875&t=k&hl=en Not sure what it is. I wonder if there are any other weird artifacts etc. people have found on Google maps. I might have to Google for that....  |

Hehehe - yeah Google maps are cool.
Seems Terra Firma real-time maps have better detail. _____________________

Hehe, I've found a link to a great site called Google Sightseeing (with the strap line: "Why bother seeing the world for real?"
that's basically interesting things from Google Maps. There's a page about the original artifact I posted here:http://www.googlesightseeing.com/2005/05/12/ufo |

Its merely a droplet of condensation.

Simple explanation: Its a crowd of naked people. Nudity always causes spontaneous bluring and pixelization in photographs.

Venus was at its peak brilliance last night. You probably thought you saw something up in the sky other than Venus, but I assure you, it was Venus.

Bonus points for spotting the quote - tv show - and actor that came from The UFO is my own, personal spacecraft. It was photographed while I was taking Jesse Ventura, former governor of Minnesota, on a ride to Venus. It was after he'd left office and X'd out his files. Alex Trebek went with us, too. So did Charles Nelson Reilly, Gillian Anderson, and David Duchovny, all of whom wanted to believe. Siggy, what do I win? |

I thought it might be a watertower, but the shininess of it and the great size seem to contradict that. Not to mention the lack of a noticeable shadow.

On the other side of Florida is the landing zone for your UFO. Cleverly disguised as a planned community. Notice the spaceship-shaped cul-de-sacs pointing to the center.

Sure, but the real overhead pictures for google maps are satellite, Earthsat specifically.

I knew it!! One day I was testing a new pair of binoculars, just looking into the sky at random, when I saw a metallic orb, just like this one in the photo. It seemed to be a half mile or so from me. It was definitely made of metal and had a three dimensional roundness to it. I watched it for at least two minutes, then it was gone.
