Giant Water Pancake

Thursday, 28th September 2006 by Alex

Please note that some or all of the objects mentioned in this post are no longer visable on Google Earth or Google Maps.

It’s a little difficult to describe this thing which has been plopped into the middle of Bodensee (Lake Constance), Germany, as anything but a gigantic water pancake.

Has a meteorite crashed into the lake? Or has someone been crying over the images again? Over to you guys! :D

Thanks to T. Maschler.
