OK... let me start off by saying, "I'm not the first to jump on the whole 'aliens are among us' thing". Having said that... I was fooling around on Google Earth today and looking at pics of Las Vegas and such. Well, I noticed that there was a section of the map that said 'groom lake' and remembered that some U.F.O. theorists claim that it's the real location of Area-51.

So, I decided to zoom in a bit and check out the area. That's when I cam across something strange. I zoomed in on what looked like a man-made pool and saw what appeared to be some, I dunno, creatures (?) in it.

Here's the pic:

Is this some joke by the people over at Google? Or maybe it's something common that I can't recognize?

It looks like some kind of water treatment plant... as such it could quite easily be an isolated algal bloom, due to high nitrogen content of the water. Algal blooms tend to show up turquoise on aerial and satellite photography.
This is what large-scale blooms look like:

Analysis of aerial photography is my job :tup:

You never cease to amaze me, dude. Well put.

But, why 3 seperate blooms of almost identical size and shape/s?

Shouldn't it be one big clump of random bumps and flanges?

I don't think you could possibly conclude anything from the picture. My opinion is that Google is f*cking with you.

Not necessarily. You got to think spatially; like snookers said, that shit's fucking big. Those blooms are probably an acre each, more than enough to keep isolated blooms. Think of it like this: there's an outfall pipe that goes into the pool thingy. Whenever new water is ejected into the pool, from say a sewage pipe, the nitrogen level increases around the pipe outfall. this triggers a bloom of algae in that new water, which slowly mixes with the other water in the pool. The picture looks like there are three such separate events and the blooms are swirling and moving away from the outfall.

But then again I could be wrong and those blobs could be humongous mutated amoebas or aliens that took up residence in a sewage plant in Nevada! :wtf:
Seriously though it does look kind of sketchy, cause that "town" looks more like a military warehouse complex, with a freakin HUGE sewage plant in the middle of nowhere.

Google is f*cking with you. If the area is a hot spot for alien theories and sh*t, the nerdlings who run Google would definitely know that and they are the kind of assholes that would throw this kind of shapeless sh*t into Google Earth just to see if people notice. Also, if it were the real location for Area 51, I know that the government would allow satellite imaging of the area. So the options are, Google doesn't have the actual images for the location so they added some, or they knew that the location would be an area of interest to the alien conspirators so they decided to f*ck with them. Either way, you get this kind of sh*t being added by Google.

Good luck trying to pinpoint exactly what it is though.
