Walsingham Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/19/hu...angtan_mystery/ Google Earth shows a massive (900m) outdoor model of a landscape near a Chinese military base. I can't imagine what they need it for. Can you? "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
LadyCrimson Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 I'm guessing some kind of military landscape training exercise but who knows. “Things are as they are.

Musopticon?

Moose Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Gee how mysterious, ya know, a military base having a terrain excersise ground laid out like that. It's almost like they want to train their infantry. Those wacky Chinese! There are none that are right, only strong of opinion. There are none that are wrong, only ignorant of facts
SteveThaiBinh Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 Alas for the Chinese, the Indians have constructed a massive defense fortress in the little bit in the bottom left corner that was left off so the road could go through, and the attacking Chinese forces will be untrained to deal with it.

It's almost like they want to train their infantry. Those wacky Chinese! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, because that's how all great militaries train now. They shrink their troops to miniscule size and set them loose. <_< "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

Surreptishus Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 No, wait walsi... I think you've got it backwards! The Chinese are actually training soldiers to stride across terrain in preparation for the N-Largement Ray!! Attack of the 50 foot Chinamen!!!
metadigital Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 It is purely for DEFENCE purposes only. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Moose Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 And what exactly is miniscule about a 900m long model? Even if its not for infantry it could be for vehicle research or some other mundane thing like that. You have to be a real sad and boring person to make things like that sound mysterious in order to find them interesting. I mean what the hell do you think they're doing, holding an art class out in the desert? Get a grip. There are none that are right, only strong of opinion.

Walsingham Posted July 26, 2006 Author Posted July 26, 2006 It's too big to traverse without trampling the details, mate. If you ask me they're sending a message to India. Serruptitius: GOLD.
