Wasn't me!
I even have a strong suspicion that it was YOU!
What's up?
Do you want a new place or so?

maybe that's a tagger's contribution to DrawingDay  ...

 

For the curious, here are the coordinates:

 

71°49'18.22" N  29°33'02.37" W  

I'm now going right over to Earth and see what that maps to here. Looks like an Icelandic Atlantis is possible

darn, it';s in Greenland, midst of a glacier.

 

Ok, time to churn on a few more thousand factories to accelerate the melting of that useless ice. Let's see what's under that glacier. It's gotta be the mothership

 

71°49'18.22" N  29°33'02.37" W  on Earth.

 

 

heading to the Moon and the Sun next

boy the resolution on the Moon sucks, we do better on Mars.

 

By-the-way for high res imagery try Malin Space Science Systems, www.msss.com

 

As far as I know since they built the camera for MGS (Mars GLobal Surveyor) they have first dibs on high res imagery coming down here. They're in San Diego.

I am going to need to see a few more pixels before I start screaming "Mars Base".

It was just a matter of time before they located your Martian abode. :)

I guess you're right, Ang!

Time to go underground I think.

We should do a contest: Start from a short in Google Earth view of the item on Mars, fade over a 3D scene that reveals what it is. And don't show me Bart Simpson or Elvis. It needs to be something credible which maps reasonably to the few white pixels seen. Then do a fly-around.

The problem with using Google for your source, is that those are from several different mapping missions, and in different resolutions, plus other problems. IF you go to the actual source RAW data, you will find that there is actually nothing there.
