A giant crab appeared off the coast of Great Britain. On Google maps they found “sea monster Crab on Google maps coordinates
Looking at photographs of our planet taken from space, you can find many intriguing and sometimes inexplicable things, especially if you use your imagination while viewing.
The publication AdMe.ru collected mysterious objects and places that users discovered on Google maps.
Wasteland Guardian
In November 2006, Lynn Hickox discovered on Google Maps a geological formation located in the Canadian province of Alberta that resembled a Native American head with an earphone in its ear. This image appeared as a result of long-term soil erosion, and the wire from the earphone and ear is the road leading to the oil rig, and the derrick itself.
Blood Lake in Iraq
In 2007, near the Iraqi city of Sadr, it was discovered blood red lake. Versions of the origin of the anomaly were very different - from sewage to waste from a nearby slaughterhouse. But the reason for this color of water has never been established. Today the lake looks the same as the others.
Heart shaped island
Galeshnyak Island , belonging to Croatia, was discovered on satellite maps in 2009. The island quickly became popular, not only on the Internet, but also among travelers - the previously uninhabited part of the land turned into a place of pilgrimage for lovers from all over the world.
Maze shaped like a fingerprint
A labyrinth in the shape of a human fingerprint, made of limestone tiles, is located in Hove Park in Brighton, UK. It was created in 2006 from a sketch by artist Chris Drury.
"Murder scene" on a lake in Almere, the Netherlands
A satellite image taken in 2009 in the Netherlands was discovered by one of the Reddit users. The scene seemed similar to a murder, and there was a heated discussion on the site about what it really was.
However, no bloody crime was recorded in this photo. Almere resident Jacqueline Quenen identified the cruel “killer” as her golden retriever, who, according to her, loves to swim. And what was mistaken for traces of blood was actually just water that had drained from the dog’s fur.
Building in the shape of a swastika
The building, shaped like a swastika, belongs to the US Navy and was noticed by Google users in 2006. The Navy command stated that the resemblance to this figure was discovered only at the construction stage, when nothing could be changed.
In 2007 $600 thousand was allocated to change the landscape and install solar panels in such a way that they hide the shape of the building. As of 2017, thanks to solar panels, the building no longer resembles a Nazi symbol.
People in dove masks
This street photo was taken in the Japanese town of Musashino in March 2013. This “composition” was built specifically - by the users and the site team Daily Portal Z, having learned that the streets would be photographed for Google, decided to immortalize herself on the map.
Ship overgrown with trees
This abandoned and tree-covered ship was captured by satellite on the Parramatta River near Sydney, Australia. The ship called SS Ayrfield was launched in 1911. It was decommissioned in 1972, and since then the ship has been moored at the mouth of the river.
UFO in Romania
An object similar in shape to a UFO from science fiction films was discovered on one of the abandoned farms near the Romanian city of Timisoara. The discovery gave rise to a lot of rumors about a visit to Earth by an alien ship. In fact, a flying saucer is abandoned water pump, which previously supplied Timisoara with water.
Desert Breath
Strange circles in the Sahara Desert were created in 1997 by the hands of people who are members of the creative association D.A.S.T. The sculpture is made of two spirals emanating from the center, one of which is created from cones that expand as they move away from the beginning, and the second is created from recesses constructed according to the same principle.
According to the creators, the spiral should disappear over time under the influence of erosion. However, even now, 20 years later, it is clearly visible even from space.
Military aircraft cemetery
Davis-Montain Air Baseis located near the city of Tucson in the USA and is perhaps the largest aircraft preservation site in the world - about 4,400 aircraft and 40 spacecraft are laid up here. Every year about 400 pieces of equipment arrive here and the same number are sold or destroyed.
Strange creature from Loch Ness
25-year-old Jason Cook, looking at satellite images Lake Loch Ness, noticed a creature swimming in its waters. And although there is no reliable evidence of the existence of the famous monster, many believed that it was the Google satellite that captured it.
A group of Internet users engaged in describing creatures and phenomena unknown to science discovered a strange monster on Google maps. The monster resembles the legendary Kraken - a giant mythical squid (or octopus) from Scandinavian folklore.
According to conspiracy theorists who discovered the monster, it lives off the coast of Antarctica. You can see the “Kraken” for yourself. Just open Google maps in satellite mode and enter the coordinates into the search (63° 2’56.73″S 60°57’32.38″W). Or follow this link.
If you look closely, from the “head” to the “tail” it is really 30 meters. But in general, the “tail” looks like it is the middle of the body of a giant squid. So, taking into account the tentacles, it can be longer than 60 meters
However, there are also those who do not consider the unidentified object to be a “kraken” or even a living creature. True, the skeptics’ versions look no less conspiracy-theological. Thus, a certain UFO specialist told UFO Sightings Daily [specializing in news about the paranormal] that the object in the photo could almost be a flying saucer.
If you look closely at the photo, you will see that this is clearly an artificially made object, an underwater UFO emerging from the depths of the ocean.
The Kraken is a fictional mythical monster of gigantic proportions that attacks ships. The name of the monster comes from the Icelandic language. It is believed that it was Icelandic sailors who were the first to see and describe this creature.
Scientists are skeptical about stories about the Kraken. Although in nature there really is a genus of giant squid, some individuals of which reach 15 meters in length.
Google Maps users often find something interesting on them. So, in December last year, in the panoramas of Melbourne there was a photograph of a corpse, which the service did not bother to “cover up”.
Incredible facts
However, as stated Paul Clark(Paul Clark), expert from Natural History Museum in London, this the photograph is nothing more than a hoax.
The largest crabs
He makes the following arguments:
1. The largest crab in the world counts Japanese spider crab (Macrocheira kaempferi), which can grow to the size of a small car.
With a leg span it can reach 4 meters. However, these crabs live in the deep, cold waters near Japan and have a completely different shape.
2. Another crab whose shape is similar to the one in the picture is giant Tasmanian crab (Pseudocarcinus gigas). These are the heaviest crabs in the world and live in the southern waters of Australia at depths of 20-820 meters.
3. Also, this crab does not belong to the species pocket crab (Cancer pagurus), which has a slightly different shape and grows up to 30 cm.
4. The crab is most similar to the representative grass crab (Carcinus maenas), which was placed onto a satellite image using Photoshop. These crabs grow to only 5 cm.
5. Also, several users pointed out that the image of the harbor was taken from Bing Maps, where there is no crab.

The anomaly near Mount Ararat is a geological formation of an unusual shape. It is located at an altitude of 4725 meters above sea level and has a length of almost 183 meters. To date, there are three main versions that explain its occurrence - it could be a geological formation, a glacier, or... the remains of Noah's Ark.
Among local residents There are legends about a huge old ship on the top of a mountain near Mount Ararat. Writer Charles Berlitz in his book “The Lost Ship of Noah” cites the testimony of the Armenian George Hagopian.
Georgiy Khagopyana said that in 1905, as an 8-year-old boy, he was on Mount Ararat with his grandfather. And that they found the ark and visited inside. On the upper deck, Georgy saw a superstructure with many windows. The body of the ark was huge and hard as stone.
The American magazine New Eden in 1939 published an interview with a former pilot of the Russian tsarist army, Lieutenant Roskovitsky, who allegedly discovered an object resembling an ark back in 1916 during a reconnaissance flight. Roskovitsky reported to the tsar, and Nicholas II equipped an expedition of 150 people. It took them two weeks to reach the site. According to Roskovitsky, the ship resembled both a giant barge and a freight car, and inside there were many rooms - small and large. Moreover, the small rooms were covered with metal mesh.
But the first significant evidence of the existence of an unknown object on the top of the mountain is considered to be photographs taken by American pilots in 1949. A few years later, something resembling a ship covered with snow was seen by Turkish soldiers. The object was then photographed two more times: in 1973 by the American spy satellite Keyhole-9 and in 1976 by the reconnaissance satellite Keyhole-11. CIA workers processing satellite images in the 70s found it difficult to interpret the data obtained. Porcher Taylor, who worked for the CIA at the time, says the picture was quite unexpected. But he was unable to clarify what exactly was there, because the materials collected by Keyhole-9 and Keyhole-11 are still classified.

Chanquillo, Spanish Chankillo is an ancient monumental complex on the desert coast of Peru in the Casma oasis in the department of Ancash, Peru. Among the ruins are the hilltop Fort Chanquillo, the Thirteen Towers solar observatory, living quarters and public meeting areas. It is assumed that the Thirteen Towers Observatory was built in the 4th century. BC e. The area of the monument is 4 square meters. km. It is assumed that it was a fortified temple.
“Mandala” is the most mysterious geoglyph of the Palpa plateau, located 30 km from the more famous Nazca plateau. In addition to it, there are many geoglyphs on the plateau; it’s a pity that they cannot be clearly seen in Google Maps (and Earth). The geoglyph “Mandala” or Estrella (i.e. “star”), as the locals call it, is definitely the most amazing of them. According to scientists, it was created in the 2nd century AD. Nazca civilization. The composition of two drawings has a size of about two hundred meters and the mystery, as you may have guessed, is how in ancient times people were able to create such a geometrically correct drawing, which is entirely visible only from a bird's eye view. It is believed that the geoliths of the Nazca and Palpa plateaus carry information encoded in mathematical form from their creators, be they people or someone else.
