Did Google Earth find Atlantis?

[Airbot]

Google is officially denying widespread Internet rumors that its Google Earth software located the mythical sunken city of Atlantis off the coast of Africa. Either that, or Google is totally trying to hide something. Since I always appreciate a nice juicy conspiracy theory, I'm going to go with the latter.

Is this Atlantis? Apparently not, according to those meanies at Google.

From what it sounds like, a British aeronautical engineer was playing around with the new Google Earth 5.0, which includes undersea data, and noticed something funny off the coast of Africa, about 600 miles west of the Canary Islands, that resembled a pattern of a street grid. According to the United Kingdom's Press Association, the pattern of streets equated to an area the size of Wales.

Hello Lordbob,

I saw that you joined over here. Welcome over. It's kind of stupid yes, you never know though, but I know skunksmash will like it.

The SF Team is a team of members that were a part of making this site kick off with content and the likes. We have special powers, can't say what they are, I'd have to you-know-what.... j/k

 

[skunksmash]

lol.... its a possibility ... would be quite a find if it was...

there is much hidden tech at Atlantis just waiting to be unearthed....

nice one Aaron.

for anyone the slightest bit curious about our Atlantian past....


According to ''Michael Tsarion's'' theories the extent of the Earth's oceans used to be far less than they are today, the earth's surface in ancient times being around 80% land.

There was a cataclysm when the enemies of the ancient ones (Nephillim) used a particle weapon of terrifying power to destroy the 4th planet of the solar system that was called Tiamat where they believed the Nephillim to be holed up.

As Tiamat was an Ocean world, trillions of tons of deep frozen ocean water littered the place where Tiamat used to be, much of it ended up entering the Earth's atmosphere creating a severe inundation, thus drowning vast areas of the earths surface to what we know today.

the remnants of Tiamat are what we know as the Asteroid Belt.

We dont know very much about our "Inner space", who knows?

IMO, provided that this image result is not fake (didn't have time to test google earth with ocean data) there must be something, and something important. Either archaeological, ancient , alien or in any ways, big. Atlantis or not, it should be explored.

As for Skunksmash's theory,I'm with him and I also strongly believe in the possibility for giants being on earth on earlier times, Nephilims, Anu's people, (Annunaki) or whatever, according to each ancient tribe's mythology (or history). In any case, it should be digged out!

 

[Lordbob75]

That is absolutely hilarious. I will get back to you when I stop laughing.

Aaron: wish I could have been around to help out with that. Would have been really cool. Oh well, maybe I can help out when you guys make the Eight forums.

Atlantis, wouldn't that be neat!

 

[swarfega]

Would be fantastic but I suspect its another google glitch like the cloud patterns were.

 

[smarteyeball]

In all honesty, the explanation is probably something mundane.

I know this is gonna be out of the blue for some people here but can someone tell me what is this Atlantis in short terms? I heard about it for the 1st time today on TCF.

Atlantis..

Atlantis (in Greek, Ἀτλαντίς, "daughter of Atlas") is a legendary island first mentioned in Plato's dialogues Timaeus and Critias.[1]
In Plato's account, Atlantis was a naval power lying "in front of the Pillars of Hercules" that conquered many parts of Western Europe and Africa 9,000 years before the time of Solon, or approximately 9600 BC. After a failed attempt to invade Athens, Atlantis sank into the ocean "in a single day and night of misfortune".
Scholars dispute whether and how much Plato's story or account was inspired by older traditions. Some scholars argue Plato drew upon memories of past events such as the Thera eruption or the Trojan War, while others insist that he took inspiration from contemporary events like the destruction of Helike in 373 BC[2] or the failed Athenian invasion of Sicily in 415–413 BC.
The possible existence of a genuine Atlantis was actively discussed throughout classical antiquity, but it was usually rejected and occasionally parodied by later authors. As Alan Cameron states: "It is only in modern times that people have taken the Atlantis story seriously; no one did so in antiquity".[3] While little known during the Middle Ages, the story of Atlantis was rediscovered by Humanists in the Early Modern period. Plato's description inspired the utopian works of several Renaissance writers, like Francis Bacon's "New Atlantis". Atlantis inspires today's literature, from science fiction to comic books to films, its name having become a byword for any and all supposed advanced prehistoric lost civilizations.

it was ''supposedly'' a race of very advanced humans (or maybe they were aliens), the ground Atlantis was built on was said to have very powerful electro-magnetic energy.... when the continents broke up, so did Atlantis (Atlantis was not a city but a continent), parts of this land are apparently responsible for goings on at the ''Bermuda Triangle'' where its believed a piece of Atlantis remains today..... also Iraq is believed to have a large piece deep below the surface, which is why the Sumerians settled there..... all Myth's..?? who knows.


whatever story's you believe (if true) they were very technological, more so than us. IMO
