Creepy Coincidence
Posted By: The First Spartan <workinwcj_888@hotmail.com>Date: 5/15/06 4:49 p.m.

In Response To: Geological Formations? (Geoff Chang)

: I've tried using Google Earth and Frankies hints to peg down a guess at the
: specific location of the artifact.

: -Rough quotes from Frankie's recent updates.
: "three mile wide artifact"
: "The mountain behind him is Kilimanjaro"
: "Covenant excavation"
: Also, from the Marty's soundtrack titles, "The Road To Voi" is
: partway from Mombasa to Kilimanjaro, marked on 'Awmap'.

: Using the 3D 'Terrain' enhancements in Google Earth, I really think anyone
: with the program should judge for themselves which side of the mountain
: range best fits the trailer. The Kilimanjaro Range is very distinct from
: the North/South as opposed to East/West. (*there are also cliff-like
: formations to the North of big K that look similar like the trailer.)

: As for the 'Geological Formation' in "cmap5nf.jpg", I haven't
: messed with it all. If you have G-Earth you can be the judge weather or
: not this is random terrain or something more. I have included a sketch of
: the Artifact, which you can also use to guess where it might be using
: G-Earth Overlay and Measure/Resize tools.

What really intrigues me is the picture under F). It looks as if there are mountain ranges that surround it in a circle. A damned creepy coincidence if I ever saw one myself. NICE WORK! Maybe the government in Africa and America want to keep the Forerunner and Covenant a secret! <.< >.> ;)

Just kidding...

Or am I?
