Strange 400 ft wide Metallic Domes buried in the desert (pics)

reply to post by 13star


Ok, I only read the first two pages of comments, there's way too much to read right now, I will go through the rest in a bit, but I thought I would just drop in my two cents as well, in case it hasn't been mentioned.

Those grids look like plantations of some sort, the reason I am saying this, is if you look further, you find where it's more "developed" I wouldn't call it developed so much, as the structures only seem to be little box type of places. But all around them, inside these grids, are these neat little rows of greenery, some seem to be more grown than others the closer you move towards a coast. So it really seems that they are spreading these "plantations" deeper inland. Now if this is correct, then these anomalies (not domes they definitely go into the ground not out) must have something to do with water, I don't see how though and I don't understand why then they are not on the grids closer to the coastal area (if it's not a coast, I apologize, I didn't zoom out too much I just went until I found a large coastal area), maybe they're hidden now, like covered by these box like structures in the plantations? Just a thought, could be off.

In these grids it definitely looks like plantations planted in neat little rows. Here where we are, maybe over there too, in the areas surrounding the paper-factory, they have these plantations where the pine trees grow in rows exactly like in those grids, and you also get them in different sizes (not randomly, in batches of rows like in the grids) I guess from above they would look like grids too. In which case having roads in grids makes perfect sense. If the roads were meant to go directly from one of these anomalies to the other, then grids would be highly inefficient, but if they were meant to go around plantations then it is effective, driving through the plantations would not be a good idea and destructive.

So I would say, these grids are roads that are going around where future plantations are to come, what exactly the purpose of these strange structures are, I don't know, but if it's to be surrounded by plantations in the future, then it would make sense that it's for water. Coastal salt water is not exactly ideal for plantation growth and what exactly the purpose of the plantations are I couldn't say either, could be like someone else mentioned maybe they're just trying to change the landscape of the desert, it all depends of course on what exactly the plants are in the plantation. All I know is it's green, therefore it could be dope for all we know , just kidding, I don't seriously think that, but seriously it depends on what the plants are that they are planting what these plantations would be for. It could be like a caboots (I my word I don't know how to spell that lol) of some sort, for food, maybe. I can't zoom in sufficiently to be able to make out what type of plants they are growing there.

Anyway, that's what I think.

P.S. Could be that the plantations are being grown to hide these strange structures too, I guess. But I must go now, I'll look into the rest of the thread and the subject matter a bit more later.

Seems I don't have to look into this any further, between civpop and Flighty your questions have been answered, not everything is sinister, this is about preserving the environment, as I suspected. It's about the plantations, not the structures, the structures is just an aid to it or part of it.

I once built a dome for an eccentric millionaire as an experiment. He wanted to live and grow things under higher atmospheric pressure. The dome I built was a faliure, unable to hold the pressure he wanted. These may be something along those lines. The theory goes that the earth was under much higher atmospheric pressure several thousands of years ago, and we lost some of our atmosphere, somehow. Our bodies would supposedly live much longer and healthier at a higher pressure. Michael Jackson also dabbled with this theory, sleeping in a small pressure chamber.

nice call you - i totally bet you are right!!

This may be a dumb question, I read the first few pages of replies, but haven't had a chance to read them all, but is it possible that with the lack of roads leading up to the 'things', that those are runways?? I don't know if they're long enough or whatever, but maybe flying is the way that whoever goes there, gets there!?

dude that is a great freaking call!!

thats freakin awesome. i dont want to jump to conclusions, but they could be research facilities, or some sort of underground base.

Why would there be a spiral road up onto a water tank ?
Probably because there's a big ol pump and valves etc up on top,a hell of lot easier for the original fitting of pump etc and also makes ongoing maintenance a piece of cake,i would say they made it spiral so they didn't have to build a really long straight ramp, This country is filthy rich so why wouldn't they build proper roads with proper markings on them ?or decent fences for that mater,

The Hoover dam has road along the top of the dam wall,is that something sinister as well?

Could anyone who believed it was a crater explain how the hell you thought they kept the sand out?

They won't listen, they just want to imagine things, you know...
this is useless.

they bowl shaped not dome shaped..
maybe they missile silos?
maybe bunkers?
whatever they are.. maybe we'll never know

nevermind

I encourage new readers to take the time to read the entire thread. There are many theories but it is to do with agriculture - the location is actually a forest. There is even an ATS member who drove there, took pictures and posted them in the thread. Read through the post - all of your questions will be answered.

The octagonal structure on the top appears to slide backwards on a pair of silver tracks just like a ballistic missile silo. Also due south about 4 -5 miles (depending on where you start measuring) is a missile launch facility. It is 2 hangars separated by a taxiway running north-south, on the west side of the taxiway in the center is a launch platform with a fuel pipe feeding it from a building on the east side of the taxiway. This facility has a guard house and a double fence with a kill zone in between.

There's also a military facility 2 miles or so South East. This whole area is military.

Hey there, thanks for the information!
Do you have coordinates??

Much appreciated! Thanks

I was keeping up with this thread, did we ever learn what these structures were?

If you were keeping up with the thread you would know that a local resident drove up there and took pictures of this site. These are water tanks forming part of a desert forrestation programme. We have also seen the web site of the company which built them, allong with their breif.

I lot of comments but how did you see this from 30k feet????

Also did anyone notice the very long run way (with bulges at the ends???) and
very small air complex about 3km to the east??? with a millitary base on a link road?

something ain't right.

So, I read about 17 pages of replies but I just didn't have the patience to read anymore. Ajban Farms Water Tank
There is the proof. Just some water tanks.

Whatever it may be, it looks to me that the entrance'road' is going UP instead of down, so entrance to underground could be, but than that round road would go in,- and downwards in the centre of this structure.
However it seems odd that the circular road up ends up in a rather big terrace, as if a lot of vehicles should be able to park there, which i think would be weird in this context also.
The shiny sides of the cone could be material of solar-panelling, but i can't know for sure.
Indeed one can't denie the fact this domes are very visible nearby an area where lots of people live, so it's at least not a secret project. Doesn't anyone know which oil-companies are active in this area? maybe these are structures with an industrial function. If it would be entrances to an underground base or something like that than it seems unlogical to have so many entrances so close by eachother, two would be enough i suppose.
Water-functions, as storage or drainage for future agricultural use of the land seems also not really the thing.
My bet is that they are big container-fields with these entrances, for whatever (waste-)material.

...IF it would be for storing plains, and this would be the entrance of underground hangars, than it is clear that the structure and roads seem build for crafts not wider than appr. 10 meters,
that could be a reason for the wide circular road inwards AND also the space between the corners of the octagon-structure on top of the deck, (where most like the pilars would be to support this heightened structure).

I think putting the pumphouse on top would be problematic. The entire structure would have to be strengthened to support the ramp and pumphouse. I am thinking these are not water tanks and that is just the cover-up story. Show me the inside.

What your looking at is probaly the entrances to a massive underground structure.
