Mysterious five-mile-long ‘UFO’ on Google Maps ‘could be lost city of Atlantis’, bonkers conspiracy theorist claims
AN ALIEN-HUNTING conspiracy theorist claims to have found a five-mile-long UFO in the middle of the sea.
Scott C. Waring revealed images of a disk-like dome shape spotted near Peru and believes it's the "right size and shape to be the lost city of Atlantis".
The self-proclaimed UFOlogist thinks it's proof of "ancient aliens" and says their technology is just "sitting there on the bottom of the ocean".
Using digital rulers, he reckons the perfect circle is about five miles wide.
The dubious spotting was noticed just off the Nazca Desert in southern Peru.

Nazca is actually home to the so-called Nazca Lines, a bunch of geoglyphs in the soil.
They date back to around 500 BC and AD 500.
Waring can't help but link the two, saying: "Those Nazca Lines are said to be drawings to welcome the god.
"Back then such alien technology flying though the sky could easily be mistaken for gods."
While the circle is odd, it's probably something quite innocuous.
It's not the first time the bonkers conspiracy theorist has made wild claims about stuff spotted on Google Maps and more.
He previously found a face resembling ancient Greek philosopher Socrates on Mars, suggesting he might have been from the Red Planet.
The internet loon has even suggested there's an ancient alien temple on Mars.
