Atlantis Found?

There was much excitement early this year when an aeronautical engineer stated the grid like pattern that appears on Google Earth, just off the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, at 31 15'15.53N 24 15'30.53W looked like an aerial map of a city. The location is one of the main possible areas where Plato's Atlantis existed.

Have a look for yourself:



As it turns out, according to Google the odd grid pattern is the result of the boats as they collected the sonar data in the ocean.
Atlantis remains undiscovered, but with the ever expanding geomatic technology it won't be long before we awaken it from its watery slumber.

Did you hear about this from your research? Google's imagery has opened the door for the world to be discovered. Interesting stuff!
