    Yeah, I’m going to call bullshit on this.

    If it were some super important building, there’s no way it was constructed in secret. There would be satellite photos, other photos, there’s no way you hide a 30’ saucer while doing a major construction like that.

    The reason he won’t tell you the country or the building is that he doesn’t want to get proven wrong by a 2 second Google search.

      I definitely understand this perspective. It’s definitely a logical thought process.

      To play devil’s advocate, what if construction occurred prior to satellite imagery? Operating under the assumption this is real, I’d imagine an object that large would’ve crashed a long time ago, prior to mass global communication.

      Or, as you’ve previously stated, it’s all BS.

        Even if it were before satellite photos, there would still be construction photos, blueprints, and diagrams.

        Here’s a link to 1,240 photos of the Empire State Building construction which was 1930-1931:

        There’s really no reason to not say the country or the building other than “Yeah, no, it’s a public building, here’s literally everything we know about it…”

          And before photography, survey drawings, plot plans, etc.

          The only place you could get away with “built something over it” is a remote location where people people don’t hang around. Or a military base not required to follow normal, civic regulations.

          You could guess it was something built in antiquity, but construction in those times could take generations (e.g. cathedrals). Anything built hastily would use material that degraded quickly, or collapsed (e.g. rapidly constructed stone walls tend to get out of plumb and fall down).

          Edit: by remote location I also mean a place no one would think up request satellite imagery of. If it were in a snow covered location maybe you could cover something with white tarps then build a structure over it but even the most elementary of large buildings require trades people to do anything. How many? Lots. Or it takes forever and that in itself is a problem.

          There’s another possibility here. The object could have been found in a mine. You could imagine closing a mine down very quickly and sending everyone home because it was unsafe for some plausible reason. Then you build a security perimeter around it (fencing to keep people out, it’s unsafe). Then you add surveillance and wait until the world forgets. Still you eventually need to have people going back in. And we are back to the original problem.

          While I do think it’s possible there’s a building like this, I think we’ll be surprised when it’s revealed (I am not holding my breath).
