Crop circle appears in a field in Germany

The impressive and elaborate crop formation has been attracting thousands of visitors.
With an ornate design measuring 246ft in diameter, the mysterious pattern allegedly appeared overnight in a wheat field near Weilheim. It was discovered by a balloonist who happened to have been flying over the field the following day.

Farmer Christoph Huttner, who owns the field, maintains that he had nothing to do with the crop circle but has suggested that it may have been the work of students with nothing better to do during their summer holiday.
The intricate formation has since been attracting a great deal of interest with visitors arriving from far and wide to see it. Some believe that the pattern is man-made while others subscribe to a rather more supernatural explanation.

"I think it's almost impossible for this to appear overnight, and to do it in such an exact and precise manner," exclaimed one visitor. "How is this possible ?"

Nothing that can be crafted by the hand of man requires an extraterrestrial explanation. Crop circle readings are on par with reading tea leaves.

So if the people making the pattern end up having a part of their work intersected by some other issue that obscures part of the pattern they designed this is supposed to mean what? They lay out a pattern in a field and it just so happens that they do have the problems with variations in the ground, the growth or coloration of the plants, tramlines, or whatever. They still get out there and great landscape art that people enjoy seeing. I think the landscape art looks pretty. Don't you like seeing it? In summary, just because the "canvas" isn't perfect does not mean that anything is intended ot... [More]

Okay, putting all the fun aside. Yes, he humans can make crop circles. We all know that. Do I want to do it, well yes. Do I want to spend that much time out in a corn field trying to be mathematically correct. No! Do I think others might. Yes. Are they? Well maybe. Are all crop circles, which are not really circles in many cases, being made by the locals. I don't think so. Why? Cause Joe-Bob and Billy-Luke would be to busy grading papers at the community college, and not have time for this and still make the big bucks. Did you get that? Do I think our government could be behind it. Well, they ... [More]

Crop circles use be just plain small circular indentations in crops or grass and called "saucer nests". They've evolved over time. http://www.sheldrake..._Michellany.pdf

Has anyone decoded the messages in crop circle patterns yet? Good question

Lots of them. Heck, you can find a definition for practically anything you like.

Generally, someone will find some "meaning or message" in the patterns...regardless if man made or not...I haven't checked into this one yet... I always thought they were cool and clever and marveled at how they can be done so quickly. I don't put much thought into the "who or why". I just enjoy them when I see them. Some "makers" are obviously better skilled than others...some patterns are wonderfully laid down and some are sloppy...simple fact. I don't know the "why" some are nicer than others....other than as said...skill level.

Seriously i dont knwo why people are so center minded and that they cant see any other possibilities. First of all why would kids stay up all night to do this no trail in or out and im sure they would never be able to do this overnight and so exact and precise. Common ppl the aliens have been doing this for years and back in the day centiruies ago wich defenetly didnt have tools to do this yet they have been appearing all over the world. Well ... you must acknowledge that some of them have been faked ? ( Imean ... I have seen film of people making them ! ) So the fakers have a reason to do it.... [More]

"Doug and Dave", one the biggest hokus pokus propaganda vid I ever saw. There's Doug and Dave, two codger like dudes, about to be timed trying to make this intricate design before sun rise. They go into the field at dusk with rope, planks, and flashlights. Then..... The picture is CUT. and we resume the next day at sunrise with the job done!! Oh, great job, Doug and Dave!!! LOL! you know how many saps fell for that one? ??? So you are saying .... that aliens came and helped them make their fake circle ... or the bought in the air force and hovered over the field with a captured UFO ? What are ... [More]
