Mystery runway in Brazilian jungle sparks online intrigue
Internet users are browsing the Google Maps app with curiosity, searching for something surprising. Something like that was discovered in the middle of the Brazilian jungle.
In the heart of the Brazilian jungle, near the Aripuana River, a Reddit user found a mysterious runway that caught his attention and that of other internet users. It is located approximately 2,299 miles from the international airport in Santiago.
An interesting discovery on Google Maps
The image of this isolated airport, spotted on Google Maps, sparked a wave of speculation about the purpose of the runway. Some suggest it could be a place used by pilots of small, private planes, while others suspect it may serve less lawful purposes, such as smuggling. There are even claims that it might belong to a "secret military base."
According to the website unilad.com, this runway is about 0.8 miles long, which is considerably shorter than standard runways, measuring from 1.5 miles to even 2.5 miles. Such runways may be intended only for small planes.
What could the runway in the middle of the jungle be used for?
According to experts, small planes landing there might deliver goods to distant villages, such as Arauazinho and Nova Olinda. They also note that there are even shorter runways in the world, measuring only 0.2 miles. These are often built by wealthy pilots who own their own planes and large plots of land.
The discovery of this runway in the middle of the jungle through Google Maps shows that today's technology can reveal previously unknown places that hold many secrets.
