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?

This is what large-scale blooms look like:
Analysis of aerial photography is my job

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.
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?

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

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!
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.

Good luck trying to pinpoint exactly what it is though.
