By now, you probably realized I’m not the biggest fan of Google Earth illusions. Don’t get me wrong, its mostly because people who submit these satellite screenshots see illusions everywhere – even when there aren’t any. Today’s illusions was almost ditched from the same reason. I became so judgmental of these type of submissions, that I almost missed an interesting detail in this photo. Luckily, in the last second I managed to see what Frank McAree was trying to explain in his email: “Saw your site featured on the BBC click program, It is fantastic and has renewed my interest in this sort of stuff. I thought you might like this, not really an illusion but attached is a Google Earth image of the Beale Air Force base in California. I think the image on the white building is supposed to be the USAF logo, but given its area 51 connections….” Can you see the illusion? Here is another hint.

Check out the USAF logo! What do you see?

    I don’t get it. o.O

  4. Lineke says:

    I think it’s a painting of an eagle on roof or what that white else is.

  5. Kevin Peck says:

    it looks kind of like a face… so what?

  6. Loyal Reader says:

    If you look closely at the green area its almost as if there is a green creature embracing the building.

  7. Adam Ris says:

    Cute! A little too cute…

  8. Anusha says:

    These Google Earth images are getting old and stupid.

  9. JD says:

    No, Peck-er it’s that this is truly the USAF symbol which coincidentally appears like the stereotypical alien life-form face.

    It’s definitely the USAF logo but I never realized how it coincidentally can appear as the alien image.

  10. otowi says:

    Yes, it does look a little like a gray.

  11. Spider says:

    Yeah, what are we supposed to see here? Alien? I thought it looks more like Wolverine’s mask than alien’s head.

    Shoulda kept your prejudice, Vurdlak. This one is lame. =D

  12. NEO says:

    Thats the logo of United States Air Force, a little over lighted.

  14. Rana says:

    It’s actually the USAF logo… bald eagle with spread wings… and it gives the illusion of an alien head… VERY COOL!

    Dude, thats EPIC!!
    haha

  17. the USAF logo is an american eagle (bald eagle, i think)
    but in the pic, the wings kinda look like the alien’s eyes…
    lolz…
    white background and all…

  18. Emma says:

    i didn’t really get it but then i did
    look at the white building
    it looks like a face
    i think
    that’s seriously lame

  19. Iggy says:

    ^ the wings are the eyes, and the star/sphere form a pseudo mouth.

    And people, stop trying to guess at things, if you’re not sure about something look it up. Honestly, it sickens me enough how little Americans know about their own troops/government.

    The USAF logo is not an eagle– that’s the seal. The logo is a pair of stylized wings with a star/sphere below them, each representing aspects of the Air Force. Look up the image and then compare to the zoomed out satelite image, you’ll see it is quite ironic.

    im pretty sure that this was already posted a while ago.

  21. Paul says:

    Its the air force logo – those are eagles wings and the ‘mouth’ is just a stlyzed star

    It’s an alien face. The wings are the eyes. The dot in the middle is the nose. The bottom is the smiling mouth.

  24. Shaina says:

    I lived at that particular base for a time. That illusion is no mistake. That particular building is the alien housing. They put up a stylized alien face so they know where to go upon arriving in California.

    Nah, just kidding. I did live very very close to the bomb range though…

  25. Waggers says:

    where’s the logo
    p.s. AD
    PLAY
    ROBLOX
    PLOX?
    :)

  26. Waggers says:

    DON’T ANSWER THAT

  27. loko says:

    look at the two wings…those are the eyes

    and the mouth is the little circle thing.

    it looks like an alien with long eye lashes.remember this is all in the logo.

    look very close into it and you’ll see it

  28. PaperMoon says:

    LOL! That’s cute! :)

  29. Maggie says:

    I really hope the illusion isn’t supposed to be the logo… Cause that is the “see illusions everywhere” kinda thing
