That's the one that cracks me up the most. It's illegal for AMERICANS to take satellite photos of it....other countries can do what they want. Hehe.....gotta love the government.
I could go either way on the technology thing. Sure if you're exposed to something with advanced technology it can allow you discover or otherwise invent new technologies in a big leap. However at the same time technology can develop in huge leaps on its own. Every now and then something huge comes out of a research project, sometimes by accident, that revolutionizes things.
What boggles my mind much more than some of our recent technological innovations are those of the ancient civilizations. The precision of the pyramids is mind boggling, the precision and accuracy of ancient mathematics relating not just to worldly things, but cosmic things as well. Is man's fascination with the cosmos perhaps based in something deeper than human curiosity and fascination with the unkown?
Perhaps the Earth was visited a long time ago? Perhaps life started on Earth from a seed of another planet? Chances are the world will never know, but it's interesting to think about.
