| jbottero | 2006-06-01 17:52:25 | Residential Wasteland | There are several near by. I'm thinking tents. |
| jbottero | 2006-05-31 17:56:01 | Tennis/Karting | Wonder what the property use is? Is this some abandoned estate? |
| jbottero | 2006-05-31 13:38:00 | Round field | Silly, it's an alien landing zone. Don't you see the arrival center just to the north and east? |
| jbottero | 2006-05-26 10:49:16 | Kabul's Salt Pit (CIA interrogation facility) | http://www.globalsecurity.org/intell/world/afghanistan/saltpit.htm |
| jbottero | 2006-05-12 10:24:15 | Nigerian oil field? | I don't think the clouds are related, I think they are natural. But it is oil wells. |
| jbottero | 2006-05-09 18:03:29 | Closerie Falbala - Jean Dubuffet | For those wondering "what is this", it's not a creature from the Original Star Trek, it's a huge sculpture / maze by Jean Dubuffet.
Jean Dubuffet remains one of the paragons of modern... |
| jbottero | 2006-05-06 23:26:10 | British Panavia Tornado GR. 1's at Nellis AFB | That's the oddest looking jogging track just off the flight line next to the ball field... |
| jbottero | 2006-05-05 13:29:58 | Trace Adkins' House | Pretty low profile for a music star! |
| jbottero | 2006-05-02 10:15:22 | Bela Fleck's House | Apperently, Mr. Fleck is doing quite well! Brovo! |
| jbottero | 2006-04-28 09:41:32 | Symmetrical forest | Strange things going on at the Onera... |

| jbottero | 2006-04-17 17:45:08 | Gyeongbokgung Palace | Great place to spend the afternoon. I've been there many times and it's always a beautiful place to take a sack lunch. |
| jbottero | 2006-04-15 19:11:56 | Dead Hippo | Well, it's in Africa, not some zoo... Stands to reason such things happen in wildlife. The pics in question are not sats, really, they are part of National Geographic's areophotography superimposed... |
| jbottero | 2006-04-11 17:57:29 | Not-So-Smooth Sailing through the mussle racks | Aquaculture. Large cages. |
| jbottero | 2006-04-10 10:35:16 | Half Of An F-16 In A Box On A Roof | Development testing of some type, pretty typical. But is that whole box virtically adjustible? |
| jbottero | 2006-04-07 14:54:16 | Cary Grant's Convair CV240 | Well, warnings or not, it wouldn't be my first choice of locations... |
| jbottero | 2006-04-05 17:26:07 | Canford School | Apperently with one Hell of a golf program. Check out the course to the east. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-31 15:09:53 | Temple at Segesta | Looks like a giant IC socket... |
| jbottero | 2006-03-29 17:27:30 | Sun, Moon, Star & Stripes, and other Parking Lot Symbols | Any ideas on the purpose of these? Art? Other? |
| jbottero | 2006-03-29 17:25:56 | Peaceful Baghdad Street (in downtown Istanbul) | Politics meets GoogleGlobetrotting. Only a matter of time before the bias and FUD make it into the descriptions here. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-26 00:17:28 | Cary Grant's Convair CV240 | At the far other end of the runway looks to me for all the world like a firing range! At an airport? |
| jbottero | 2006-03-24 15:46:39 | Hammering Man | I'm always amazed at what people cal art, but what ever turns 'em on, I guess. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-24 15:43:30 | VC-25A / 747-200B (Air Force One) | Both these planes do air-refuels as well (unlike treditional 747s or other commercial aircraft) |
| jbottero | 2006-03-23 10:06:51 | Der 31er am Gaußplatz | "Der 31er am Gaußplatz"
Pretty useless for a site that is mostly in English. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-11 21:43:43 | Airliner remains | Yes, that's exactly what it is, Fire / Rescue training. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-06 17:14:09 | Possible IED in Baghdad | Actually, I think it is a convoy, and the traffic build-up is from the escorts keeping people way back from it... |
| jbottero | 2006-03-06 17:12:36 | Possible IED in Baghdad | While there does seem to some traffic at that point that *might* be a convoy, when you zoom way in with Google Earth, the circled thingy looks kind of like a tree growing up between the two ramps... |
| jbottero | 2006-03-06 17:06:49 | IED Attack in Baghdad | I guess it *might* be an IED attack, though I'd like some supporting documentation. Thing is, I don't see much evidence of convoy traffic. Could just be a car fire. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-06 13:14:37 | Kent Twitchell's 'Ed Ruscha' Mural | Looks like Bill Gates. |
| jbottero | 2006-03-06 13:07:17 | Poor Photoshop Work on Roof of Building at Defense Depot Susquehanna, Pennsylvania (DDSP) | Deosn't look like it stopped anyone from takin' the picture! |
| jbottero | 2006-02-24 12:32:37 | Ship in trouble | It does look like the water is coming up on one side. |
| jbottero | 2006-02-22 10:50:34 | Oregon Health Sciences University | Funny thing, all these hospitals are located on "Pill Hill", not named after medication, but some guy named "Pill". |
| jbottero | 2006-02-17 20:36:41 | F-5E Tiger | Same airframe as the T-38 Talon, which is the Air Forces' jet trainer. All Air Force pilots train in the T-38 prior to training in their primary aircraft, even rotor and heavy lift pilots. |
| jbottero | 2006-02-17 17:11:59 | B-1B Lancer | The cluster of hangers to the SE of the jet, the ones with the tail-like extensions, are called "Hush Houses". Inside are frames where they bolt engines, and test them by running the up to speed. The... |

| jbottero | 2006-02-09 13:53:59 | Smiley face roof | Actually, it's 2001 70th Ave West. It's commercial suites, "Narrows Business Plaza". |
| jbottero | 2006-01-31 17:33:46 | Osan Air Base | I was stationed at Osan, 1986 to 1987 time frame. Had a lot of fun. |
| jbottero | 2006-01-31 13:03:36 | Air Force Reservation | The earthen burms that protect small buildings from what ever is taking place at the center of that circle implies maybe dome explosives work goes on there.
However, ... |
| jbottero | 2006-01-31 12:05:42 | Fort Belvoir SM-1 Nuclear Reactor | Yes, it seems that the Army did operate this reactor, but the documentation implies that this and similar facilities where involved in joint programs. |
| jbottero | 2006-01-31 10:33:59 | Bunkers in Albania near the Jugoslavian border | Look like bunkers to me... |
| jbottero | 2006-01-30 11:47:06 | WWII Blimp Hangars | I saw these too, and the references I found on Google suggest they are used to house Space Shuttle development... |
| jbottero | 2006-01-30 10:11:18 | Bunkers in Albania near the Jugoslavian border | Are you sure they are bunkers? There don't seem to be entry ways or vehicle tracks leading up to them, and scale wise, they are only a little wider than a roadway... |
| jbottero | 2006-01-28 13:57:37 | Concert in Seattle | Given the other acivity around there at Seattle Center, I'm guessing Bumbershoot or the Folk Life Festival.

| jbottero | 2006-01-26 10:20:54 | Homestead Air Force Base | Homestead is a Reserve base now. It was almost totally destroyed after hurricane Andrew. I was stationed there from 1985 to 1987, nice place to be at that time, Key West every weekend… |
| jbottero | 2006-01-26 00:06:59 | Engine Test Facility | Too bad for the people that live near this thing. The noise produced when they do engine run-ups is deafening, and can be heard for miles... I live 5 miles frome where they do this in "hush houses"... |
| jbottero | 2006-01-26 00:03:19 | RV Triton Trimaran Research Ship | Looks like a pregnant ship... |

| jbottero | 2006-01-23 16:21:41 | Thule Air Base | I've flown through Thule, it's pretty inhospitable. I'd hate to have been stationed there, though I suppose in the summer months there's outdoors things to do. Winter is beyond unpleasant, and... |
