Hopefully Greenpeace doesn’t feel the need to go protesting these lines.

NOVA on PBS just had an episode on the Nazca geoglyphs. If you have an interest in this and have PBS Passport you can watch it on their site or streaming device. For my local station, a monthly donation of $5 is the minimum for Passport.
Unbelievable (to me) that they allowed this highway to be constructed: https://imgur.com/pYdShSA
A link with images of the new glyphs they discovered in 2019. Looks like they aren’t releasing the full set yet for this find.
How do they accurately assess the age of these things?
This is just an exercise in scanning through google earth images now right? They don’t have to deploy their own hardware to get aerial images right?
They're not new.
Every time I dig into the Nazca mystery I am reminded of crop circles. Certainly in the UK they are not alien landing sites (!) but made by a couple of farm hands with rope and some planks.
I can never prove it, but I hope in some Peruvian heaven there are a couple of generations of jokers looking down and absolutely pissing themselves over this, how their priests were fooled and now us.
Pour a Pisco Sour guys and enjoy :-)
