Baker Lake, NU, the Inuit nation in northern Canada
A man
indentified as “Dr. Boylan” believes that the blacked out area seen
above and those found in several other locations are blocking the
locations of extraterrestrial beacons.
Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany
This
NATO air force hub is a retreat for the Operation Iraqi Freedom forces,
and as such could definitely be considered a terrorist target. That
could explain why the facility is partially blanked out on Google Maps.
Pacific Northwest, USA
Here’s
one that gives us chills. What exactly are we not seeing here? The site
is close to the Washington-Oregon border and is rumored to have
something to do with FEMA, HAARP or, really, anything at all. Prison
Planet readers inspected the site in person and could find no
identifying details other than an ominous fence and unmarked entrance.
Szazhalombatta Oil Refinery, Hungary
One
of the strangest acts of alleged “censorship” is this Hungarian oil
facility, which is simply rendered green. That’s right — the grounds are
deleted, the buildings are missing, and what you have left is flat
grass.
Huis Ten Bosch Palace, Netherlands
You
wouldn’t think the Dutch Royal Family would be a prime target for
madmen, but the Huis Ten Bosch Palace remains heavily pixilated on
Google Maps no matter the angle. (The surrounding area and trees
therein, on the other hand, come in crystal clear at close range.)
Unknown area, Russia
Another
one that is so mysterious, no one has a clue what it is. One commenter
on the website Siberian Light speculates it’s either “a radar station or
missile interceptor,” while another notes that the image of the
surrounding area appears to have been copy-pasted from another part of
the country.
Mobil Oil Corporation, Buffalo, NY, USA
Some
have criticized Mobil of Buffalo, NY for blurring their facilities,
saying the oil corporation doesn’t have much of a case for being a
terrorist target (terrorists hate snow, you know.) On the other hand, we
can’t be sure what their reasoning is.
North Korea
You’ve
no doubt heard about this country, one of the members of the supposed
“Axis of Evil,” but few have ever visited. You won’t see it on Google
Maps, either, as the entire country exists in images but without highway
markers, street names, or any other identifying details.
Reims Airbase, France
Why
is the Reims Airbase in France blocked out? Perhaps it emits a
particularly foul body odor. (Just kidding, we love the French.)
Indian Point Power Plant, New York, USA
Everyone
from Democratic Governor Mario Cuomo to former Republican Congresswoman
Sue Kelly has called for the Indian Point Power Plant to be shut down.
On top of environmental concerns, the upstate New York structure is,
according to experts in the energy field, not strong enough to withstand
an earthquake like the one that recently devastated Japan.
Volkel Airbase, Netherlands
It’s
pretty ridiculous how blatantly blurred this one is, but then again,
WikiLeaks did publish a diplomatic cable that confirmed the presence of
nuclear warheads at this base.
HAARP Site, Gakona, Alaska, USA
HAARP
(High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) is one of the most
controversial operations currently active in the United States. The
Gakona, AK site and its ionospheric testing is believed by some
conspiracy theorists to be the cause of everything from floods to
earthquakes, although the evidence of this is very minimal.
Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, Salinas, CA, USA
Here’s
the strangest bit of censorship on Google Maps: the Mazda Raceway
Laguna Seca in Salinas, California. It’s heavily whited out, in fact, as
if an angry hand did the trick. The weirdest part is the facility is
just what it sounds like: a seemingly-harmless racetrack
Babylon, Iraq
While
the surrounding area (including its surprisingly rich farmland) is
visible, the city of Babylon, Iraq itself is all blurry. You can bet it
has something to do with the insurgents there…
Tantauco National Park in Chile
Why
is this refuge for Endangered Species completely washed over on Google?
Mashable, which seems to have discovered the strange censorship, doesn’t
have a clue.
“The Hill” aka Elmira Correctional Facility
This
maximum security prison in upstate New York is understandably blacked
out… we guess. After the Attica Prison Riots and several incidents
worldwide of uprisings and mass escapes, officials could be worried
about a possible helicopter-led breakout.
This Russian Guy’s House
What?
Some rich guy’s personal paradise is blurred on Google? According to
Wikipedia, what you’re seeing here is “a private palace of the Gazprom
CEO Alexey Miller.” Why is he given preference over the rest of us?
Perhaps we just aren’t powerful enough to convince Google to blur our
own homes.
Colonel Sanders
Here’s
the strangest of them all: Col. Sanders, the face of Kentucky Fried
Chicken, appears in exactly zero Google Street View images. That’s
because, as a Google spokesperson notes, Sanders was a real person and
everyone is supposed to be blurred on Google sites…
The Faroe Islands, Denmark
This is a rumored military installation in a country we previously thought as “harmless.” Wonder what they’re really planning…
Hungarian Oil Refinery
The Szazhalombatta Oil refinery in Hungary… and that’s all we know.
NATO Headquarters, Portugal
This
one would be hilarious if it weren’t so sinister. Whoever doctored the
image of the Portuguese HQ for NATO simply copy-pasted another piece of
Google Earth over the actual layout of the building. Weird.
Seabrook Nuclear facility, New Hampshire
This
is believed to be the Seabrook Nuclear Power Station in the northeast
corner of the United States. Are you as fearful of nuclear power as we
are?
Missile silo, Spain
According
to a researcher with WikiMedia, “On this lot there is a small building
with something almost like a silo in the middle. This location is not
blocked in Yahoo! Maps. There is no image for this location in Virtual
Earth yet.”

Atomic site, France
We’re
not sure what “The Marcoule site of the Commissariat l’nergie Atomique”
means, but we’re pretty sure the word “atomique” is the keyword here.
