White Structures On Google Moon, March 13, 2014, UFO Sighting News.
Date of discovery: March 2014
Coordinates of discovery: 3°53'18.47"S 17°34'20.73"W
Method used: Google Moon map
These are some real baffling structures. They were found by Bluebeard2011 of Youtube so please subscribe to him. He makes some amazing discoveries. The detail on some of these structures is amazing, but if we trust Google ruler they are only about 130 meters long...however the crosses are about 6 meters in one part of the photo and 99 meters in another part of the photo, so take it with a grain of salt. Just copy and past the coordinates above into the google search box, and remember Google map is free to download.
Thanks,

Scientists Synthesize First Functional "Designer" Chromosome in Yeast
Over the last five years, scientists have built bacterial chromosomes and viral DNA, but this is the first report of an entire eukaryotic chromosome, the threadlike structure that carries genes in the nucleus of all plant and animal cells, built from scratch. Researchers say their team's global effort also marks one of the most significant advances in yeast genetics since 1996, when scientists initially mapped out yeast's entire DNA code, or genetic blueprint.
"This work represents the biggest step yet in an international effort to construct the full genome of synthetic yeast," says Dr. Boeke. "It is the most extensively altered chromosome ever built. But the milestone that really counts is integrating it into a living yeast cell. We have shown that yeast cells carrying this synthetic chromosome are remarkably normal. They behave almost identically to wild yeast cells, only they now possess new capabilities and can do things that wild yeast cannot."
