Default Wierd Russian Crater


Has anyone got any idea what happened here for this crater in Russia?


It looks man made to me.....


The Victor.

Latitude : 61° 5'42.26"N

Apologies, I thought I could attach the kmz files using the option at the bottom but they don't come thru....

No apologies needed, I tried the same thing myself on my first visit to GEH.

Cool stuff you found in Russia. I agree, they appear man made.

There is an entire file library where you can upload files. Look forward to seeing more of The Victor's sightings.

Looks like it's a huge crater that they've used, I dunno if it would be man-made because around it looks like fragments of it...?
