How Old Is China's “Area 51”?

“The ‘Chinese desert disc’ - some people are comparing it to
the Wilton Windmill 2010 crop picture, which shows a series of concentric rings,
each coded in-to-out radially in 8-bit ASCII.”
- Horace Drew, Retired Geneticist, Sydney, Australia

“I am a retired engineer doing research with Google Earth.
I analyzed image of the ‘Chinese Airport.’ The total outside perimeter
of the left (west) airport is 22,360.6 feet, somewhat precisely the square root of 5.
The outer perimeter of the dark section is 22,360.6 / 16 / A where
A= E -1 = 1.718281828, the fractal portion of natural log base E.
I seriously doubt anybody in modern times would design anything like that.”

November 19, 2011   Dunhuang, Gansu Province, China - The first images called “China's Area 51” began circulating on the internet and in emails around November 7, 2011. Speculation was they might be geometric targets for satellite calibration. But others argue there are unusual mathematical relationships in the 20-mile wide terraformed complex. The location of the mysterious shapes are southwest of Great Gobi Desert A, Gansu Province, surrounded by a vast region of unpopulated land. Mongolia is to the north and the nearest town is Dunhuang, established in 111 B. C. as a frontier garrison outpost by the Han Dynasty Emperor Wudi. Today's population is 188,000.
China's Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center (JSLC) is part of the Dongfeng Aerospace City (Base 10) that is located in the Gobi desert about 200 miles (160 km) east of Dunhuang.

China's “Area 51” ground patterns are southwest of the Great Gobi Desert A in
Gansu Province south of Mongolia (center red circle). The nearest town is
Dunhuang (below) that is 1,515 miles (2,438 km) west of Beijing (far right red circle).

Dunhuang, Gansu province, China, has ruins of an ancient Chinese watchtower
from the Han Dynasty (202 BC - 220 A.D.), located along what was the old line
of rammed-earth fortifications that once stretched from the Hexi Corridor (in Gansu)
to the Tarim Basin (in modern Xinjiang). It was a major stop on the ancient Silk Road.
It was also known at times as Shazhou, or ‘City of Sands’, a name still used today.
It is best known for the nearby Dunhuang Caves containing some of the finest examples
of Buddhist art spanning 1,000 years. January 27, 2008, image by the Real Bear.

I forwarded the Google Earth images to Horace R. Drew, Ph.D., molecular biologist and expert in DNA structure, who lives in Sydney, Australia. He is also known as “Red Collie.” Collie has studied crop formations for astronomical and mathematical information that might relate to our sun and solar system. I included the URL, www.viewzone.com/china51.html, and asked him, “Could you do a reality check on the lat/long in this possibly important email? I would appreciate seeing whatever images you yourself can download that corroborate, further detail or contradict the information about this China site.” That same day, I received this reply from him.

1st Batch of 10 Google images, Nov. 7, 2011
Dear Linda, there are 8 highly anomalous surface objects in that mountainous area on Google Earth.
Here are a series of overview or close-up images. I do not claim to know what any of it means!

Google Earth satellite image with latitudes and longitudes superimposed for location
identification, one of many mysterious ground patterns in a remote area referred to as
“China's Area 51” stretching for some 20 miles southwest of the Great Gobi Desert A
in Gansu Province south of Mongolia and about 200 miles west of China's Jiuquan
Satellite Launch Center (JSLC), part of the Dongfeng Aerospace City (Base 10).

From World-Mysteries.com:  “Mysterious Site in China
“Compare “China's Area 51” to Nazca, Peru, geoglyphs that date back to around 400 A. D.

6-mile-long Nazca, Peru, “airstrip” embedded in the desert land between the Pacific Ocean
and the Andes Mountains, dating back to around 400 A. D. Image © by Manny Panta.

“Could these geoglyphs be effigies of ancient animal gods or patterns of constellations? Are they roads, star pointers, maybe even a gigantic map? If the people who lived here 2,000 years ago had only a simple technology, how did they manage to construct such precise figures? Did they have a plan? If so, who ordained it? It all seems so otherworldly. To comprehend the Nasca lines, created by the removal of desert rock to reveal the pale pink sand beneath, visitors have proposed every imaginable explanation - from runways for spaceships to tracks for Olympic athletes, from op art to pop art, to astronomical observatories.
It is believed that the geoglyphs were built by a people called the Nasca - but why? And they created these wonders of the world has defied explanation.
Near the eastern edge of Dunhuang, there are many "square outlines" that might be related to a military base?”

 
Writing for World-Mysteries.com in an article entitled, “Mysterious Marks Near Dunhuang, China,” retired engineering manager and pilot J. D. Branson asked about the unexplained China Google Earth images: “Perhaps it is a military installation; however, a few of the areas are difficult to interpret. One of the ‘landing strips’ looks ancient with erosion marks. Go to Google earth and enters the latitude and longitude coordinates:
China Area 51 desert “Drawings” Coordinates:
Latitude: 40°28'43.07"N      Longitude: 93°28'36.42"E
http://maps.google.com/
http://earth.google.com
“You can move the cursor around and see that the marks are not built up in elevation as an airport would be. Road graders and compactors are needed to pack a field sufficiently to safely take the extreme pressure that landing gears make at times. Any yielding of the dirt would cause the plane to spin out of control. Of course, there are no support buildings or taxiways to parking areas.”




How old is this Chinese landing strip in the photo labeled yellow 3, 4 and 5 above? J. D. Branson described his analysis of the above “Chinese Airport” features:  “ The total outside perimeter of the left (west) airport is 22,360.6 feet, somewhat precisely the square root of 5. The outer perimeter of the dark section is 22,360.6 / 16 / A where A= E -1 = 1.718281828, the fractal portion of natural log base E. I seriously doubt anybody in modern times would design anything like that.
“One may also see that common truck traffic has made tracks out across a number of the marks and therefore it cannot be paved or a prepared surface. If the marks were graded and compacted, they would be nearly perfectly level lengthwise and side to side. When tracing the contour with Google Earth, they still show the general contour of the area around them. Even the darker colored areas which one might be tempted to think are paved show signs of erosion.

“There are some simple considerations to prove the designs are inter-related. Both perimeters of the two ‘air strips’ are 22,360.6 feet in length, plus or minus a few feet, which is the square root of 5 = 2.236068. This is also the source number for the sacred number of phi (1.618033989) used repeatedly in natural events.
“I am not at all certain why the center and the right mark show up so brightly on Google earth, but I have seen this type of phenomena before and it could be something in the Google software that causes it to be so pronounced.




J. D. Branson:  “These marks could contain an encyclopedia of data if one breaks the coding. Above in my yellow text over photo, the square in bottom left is not only oriented true north at an azimuth of 360 degrees (also zero), but the length is 2777.77 feet, which is the reciprocal of 36 times 10,000. This seems likely some type of signal to provide methodologies for more complex solutions. Note the water erosion across some of the grid pattern, again indicating it could be really ancient.”

Email Nov. 9 from Mike Reed, retired Arizona State University astronomer:

White square on far left (west) “is actually a slag pile. Where is the material coming from?”


Mike Reed:  “I looked at the China site closely. The white square (to the West) is actually a slag pile. If you look at the southern edges they show a near vertical piling of material. It reminds me of some of the piles I've seen near large Arizona mines. Where is the material coming from? Tunnels, underground facilities, very interesting!

The white line formations look to be a very thin coating on the surface and the pattern looks pretty arbitrary. Targets for ID from space? If you follow the road going East it eventually passes by a fairly large complex of buildings with blue patches on the roof out in the middle of nowhere.???”


Is This A Binary-Coded Disc with Planes At Center?
Another unusual feature is located about 9 miles (14 km) east of the “air strips.” This terraformed disc has some large, white airplanes at its center.

Is this a binary-coded disc? Why are there large planes at the center?
