New Google Ocean Application Shows Possible Site Of Atlantis

I saw this on the Web and downloaded the new Google Earth application that shows underwater features as well, and saw the image below. The full story here. It's extraordinary!

Google Ocean: Has Atlantis been found off Africa?

A "grid of streets" on the seabed at one of the proposed locations of the lost city of Atlantis has been spotted on Google Ocean.

Google Ocean: Has Atlantis been found off Africa?

The network of criss-cross lines is 620 miles off the coast of north west Africa near the Canary Islands on the floor of the Atlantic Ocean.

The perfect rectangle – which is around the size of Wales – was noticed on the search giant's underwater exploration tool by an aeronautical engineer who claims it looks like an "aerial map" of a city.

The underwater image can be found at the co-ordinates 31 15'15.53N 24 15'30.53W.
