Imagine the size of the planet, the chances of someone making those marks in a field at the right time for a satelite to be photographing the area. Then image how long someone much have been looking over Google maps just to find something that small! boggles the mind!

oh so are we just looking at how detailed and close up it is then? yeah i found my house with it. it went right to it and we saw details of the backyard and everything. very creepy to think that anyone can look at where you live. its available to everyone, but if you want a more real time and clear picture you pay something am i right?

ok, for those that don't know what the Flying Spaghetti monster is, have a look here: http://www.venganza.org/ (I particularly love the part about the reduced number of pirates since the 1800s causing the increase in global temperature!) And here is the google maps sighting: http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=815&c=&f=q&hl=en&q=london&ll=52.383121,-0.227795&spn=0.000001,0.000001&t=k

Somthing about that building seems so fake, like all the building around it are diffrent colours.
