    Video on independent.ie shows a report about a crop circle thats appeared in Bavaria. At the end of the image you can clearly see what appears to be radio telescopes right on the site but the report makes no mention of that.

    I thought crop circles had their day !

    It's not just one or two either, it's an entire array.

    Linda Moulton-Howe has some great documentaries on the phenomenon, on youtube.

    Certainly there is a big radio dish there in this photo:

    "Bavaria, southern Germany"
    - Home of the ooverloards...

    "Thousands of people are trekking to a Bavarian farmer’s field to check out of crop circles"
    - I'd be charging 3€ at the gate in

    "He suggests students on summer holiday may have cut the 75-metre wide image into his field."
    Probably...

    "The news agency says thousands of visitors have come to sing, dance and even swing pendulums in the giant image."
    Careful now.

    Crop circles are up there with fairies and that sort of thing, more of a concern would be the global reports of livestock mutilation via precision type instruments. Anyone can make a circle in a field, laser cut outs are a bit more tricky...

    making a pattern in crops is easy, making it precise from an airbourne vantage point and making it without breaking the stems of the crops is near impossible. Most of those crop circles are done in that fashion without breaking any of the stems

    getting back to the antenna's, apparently they were used to broadcast the moon landing in July 1969,
    to European households. Probably not that big a deal, but it's a pretty cool coincidence
