I am a big fan of funny stuff on Google Earth. I like the car crashes, hookers, sword fights, oddball landmarks and the traffic citations involving the Google cars but I think my favorites have to be the crop circles. Ed Cabarles sent me this one (lat: 51°18'39.89"N long: 1°52'56.80"W) as proof positive we are not along in the universe.
 
Wow, crop circles and buildings shaped like Swastikas. What will Google Earth find next?
 
crop circles are easy to fake, the ones i dont understand are the complex crazy designs that would be hard to draw on even paper.

Easy to fake? As opposed to what? You think aliens would actually bother to spend time making them in the first place? I believe if there was life intelligent enough to travel the cosmos to see us, they wouldn't leave behind a piece of art that any human child can draw. Crop Circles are made by crazy people who have way too much time on their hands and secretly desire attention.
 
most of the crop circles are plain jane... but some are so complex it just boggles me how people with a bunch of 2x4's and rope can do some of those ive seen.
 
this is cool, i was just looking on google images. its not very intricate, but nerdy for sure

I don't think aliens would want to spend hundreds or thousands of years travelling to another planet just to draw funny stuff on our crop

These stuff are an impressive form of art though
 
i believe there are ways around this universe thats a hell of a lot quicker then light can go. im not saying matter can go faster then light, but i do think the space-time continuum can be cheated... there has to be a way, or else there would be the real chance there is actually millions of planets with people out there and we will simply never be able to hear or see them.
 
Fake or not, there is no guarantee that what we see as silly pictures in the corn are not in fact a common form of communication for another civilization; why must they adhere to our standards?

Interstellar trolling?

Because we're human, and saved Citadel Station!:mad:

maybe it's a target for the lazer beam!
 
There are some extremely intricate designs, but that doesn't mean it wasn't made by humans. It's basically the same theory as the aliens build the pyramids theory. We find something on Earth that seems to complicated to have been done by humans so we assume aliens. My personal opinion is that we underestimate the resourcefulness of humans. Just because we don't understand how it's done doesn't mean no human understand how it's done. It's not impossible it's aliens, or God, or Kirk and Spock traveling from the future to have some fun, but it just doesn't seem like the most likely explanation.
 
Well of course! Babe Ruth, Jesus, and Elvis crop circle images are all forms of communicating with aliens!
 
You can even see the "trails" to each part of the crop circle...I guess the aliens had to walk thru the crop to make it also.
 
I always thought the starwars program they had with russia develop crop circle laser writers. Maybe they should upgrade so they can do some labelflash images.
 
I'm surprised evangelists missed this trick. If the first designs had been in the shape of the Virgin Mary, people would be assuming all crop circles were messages from god.
 
id like to believe there is something out there.... we simply cannot be the only ones in this universe. too much space for that....

thing that sucks is we might be the first... and were the ones supposed to spread. still, the universe isnt exactly new, its unimaginable that we are the only ones.

"Supposed to"?

The Anthropic Principle has something to say about this--not that I'm a big subscriber to that view.

The speed of light is just that, the speed of light. Traveling faster than it is just an obstical. Who knows, in several hundred years we might easily pass it. The speed of sound was thought to be unbreakable.

IF matter can not go faster than light, in our deminsion, we will need to figure out how to enter a deminision with a different set of laws of physics where we can go FTL.
