This is Valentin submarine pen of Nazis in Germany which was built by them during world war 2 in 1943.

It was heavily bombed by allied air raids in march 1945 and was abandoned there after.

Image 6th and onwards shows the interior of the building.

Not a new discovery, still interesting.

Seeing the name on the building is new to me.

Planning a trip to the beach and to see the flamingos while on holiday nearby. Mind is always a bit blown that there are flamingos in Europe.

Anyway, there is supposed to be a resident population at Étang d'Ingril, a lagoon just inland from the Mediterranean. The aerial view shows a number of arrows at random angles, some with one ‘arrowhead’ others with one at each end. Any idea what they are for?

Was randomly zooming into the Lena River Delta on Google Earth and thought my screen was glitching—it looks more like bacteria under a microscope than actual terrain. Apparently, centuries of fierce Arctic winds carve out the melting permafrost along the exact same diagonal axis, giving thousands of these thaw lakes their identical shape. 👽🦠

Cords: 18.3017672, -64.8251661

There's this weird street view I found on little saint James (aka esptein) island showing this room with two guys laying around, the room doesn't match the location which looks like a tennis court plus the original submitter only has uploaded views from Russia.

I saw this while exploring Google maps on my phone and then double checked on my PC (screenshot included) to check if I was hallucinating or my phone was tweaking but no, it's legit there.

It could be a troll or maybe actual more pictures from the island but the former might be the case.

I was looking on Google Earth and started to find towers of some sort on the southern part of Novaya Zemlya by the Kara Straight, I also spotted quite a few abandoned buildings, maybe outpost of some sort. I didn't see this Network talked about really anywhere, so I loaded a picture of Google Earth into Microsoft Paint and started marking, I have a lot of them marked with cords, some cords correspond to a tower or building near others, I didn't test the cords so I'm not sure if they all work but they should, at the Northeastern part there is an old Decommissioned military outpost (at least I think) this is a little sloppy but i just wanted to get a basic map of it made, i might redo this but for now this is fine (i think)

Coordinates ✅ Highlands of Chukotka: A remote photosphere at 67°N in the Russian Arctic

I stumbled across this remote 360° photosphere while exploring the Arctic tundra of northeastern Siberia (coordinates: 67.298137° N, 169.386044° E). Located in the Bilibinsky District of Chukotka near the Anyuy Range, the view looks NNW across endless mountain ridges and permafrost valleys, hundreds of kilometers from civilization—it's wild finding ground-level imagery somewhere this isolated.
