EYE OF SAHARA

James McDivitt and Edward White, were gazing at the ground during a 1965 spacecraft journey over the Sahara Desert. They spotted something unusual, which was described as a large human eye-shaped structure with a smaller object nearby. The diameter of this structure is reportedly 18,500 square kilometres, making it larger than cities like Mumbai or Karachi, while its diameter is only 40 kilometres. Despite its size, it can only be identified from space and is often referred to as the "Eye of Sahara" or "Richard's Structure”

LOCATION OF EYE OF SAHARA

The structure's location, near the Gulf of Sidra in the northern western part of Africa, is significant because it was once part of the ancient city of Atlantis, as mentioned in historical records. The map coordinates of Atlantis and the Eye of Sahara match, suggesting a connection. The structure's age is estimated to be around 2,500 years old, and its total area is approximately 90 million square kilometers, making it one of the largest structures on Earth. The Eye of Sahara is believed to be the desert’s most intriguing feature, and its discovery has fuelled many theories and speculations.

SAHARA'S HISTORY AS A REGION

The ocean that once existed there had deposited a layer of limestone on its bed, which was later exposed when the ocean receded. The first winds that blew over this white desert caused the limestone particles to disintegrate, revealing not just the white desert but the entire Sahara region's underlying layers. Around 26 lakh years ago, the world was heading towards the last ice age, and the earth was freezing over. However, the Sahara was still a lush green area with rivers flowing through it, and various plants and trees thrived there. The Sahara's harsh conditions emerged around 6000 years ago when the desert's conditions began to change.

ENDEE PLATEAU

This oasis, located in the heart of the desert, is a stopover for travellers and is home to unique animals like zebras and crocodiles. The area is also rich in natural resources, including water and minerals, which have attracted human settlement for centuries. The oasis was once inhabited by Africans, and some experts believe that crocodiles in the area are an extinct African crocodile species. The area is also home to ancient artefacts’, including pottery and mystery stones, which have puzzled researchers for decades. One such stone, known as the Enigma Stone, was believed to be a piece of our planet until it was discovered to originate from the Sahara. The Sahara Desert is known to be the largest hot desert in the world, but it is also the third largest desert in terms of total area. Archaeologists have unearthed evidence of advanced civilizations, including the ancient city of Ghadames in Libya, which dates back to 10,000 BCE. The Sahara Desert was once a lush, green region with numerous rivers and lakes, allowing for the development of agriculture and urban settlements. The ruins of these ancient cities and the petroglyphs found in the desert suggest that the people who lived there had a deep understanding of astronomy and mathematics.
