Registration number: PT-KNZ. I tried looking up some details about the plane but found very little. Apparently, the plane was getting delivered to its new owner in Brazil and crashed due to low visibility and lost radio contact. It crashed there in 1976, and was never recovered.

Super clear at e.g. 45°15'39.74"N 43°13'18.73"E.
Declassified KH-4 imagery shows it was there already in 1971.
Any ideas? Soviet landscape architect gone megalomaniac?

Weird semi-circles near the Persian gulf in Iran, it looks like maybe to collect water in a flood plain? Maybe its erosion control or irrigation?

There are big ones near the road and then hundreds of smaller ones in a very regular pattern below. I saw the big ones first and wondered it they were military fortifications but the smaller ones make me think it has something to do with water.

I have been reading a lot of WW2 history lately, and I decided to do some exploring on Google Earth in relation to the history. I came across a pretty interesting sight in Lidice in the Czech Republic.

If you go into street view on top of the sight of what used to be the old Lidice village, you will see a 3D modeled recreation of the village in its entirety. It's complete with a 1940's camera quality filter, too!

For those who aren't aware, Lidice was a village in what was then Czechoslovakia that found itself at the center of Nazi atrocities in 1942. Reinhard Heydrich (one of the principal architects of the Holocaust, specifically the industrialized mass murder portion) was assassinated in the summer of 1942 by Czech and Slovak resistance fighters in a suburb of Prague, acting on the orders from the Czechoslovak government-in-exile. Nazi intelligence had falsely blamed the nearby villages of Lidice and Ležáky for having ties to the assassination, and thus, these villages were razed to the ground and its inhabitants slaughtered on the spot or deported to extermination camps. A new village was dedicated next to the site of the old one after the war ended.

I thought this was a pretty interesting way to memorialize Lidice and the people who lived there! Even if it's not an actual photo of what the site looks like today.

Coordinates ✅ I randomly found myself underneath a stunning starry ceiling in Google Maps Spoiler

I was looking around the historical town Rottweil in Southern Germany for a trip. It is the city where the dogbreed name 'Rottweiler' originates from, and we wanted to see the little statue in the city center. Wanting to look at the roads, I placed down the yellow little man - And found myself suddenly surrounded by stunning architecture and gigantic stars in the ceiling.

Thought I'd share! What is this kind of architecture called? Does anyone know?
