I saw those all over the desert as I flew from Pittsburgh to Los Angeles. They are more than just in Saudi Arabia or Area 51. Not sure what they are, but probably not as exciting as they appear!

Isn't MySpace for kids? Jeez, they think milk and hamburger come from the market!

Military use? Its likely a center pivot irrigation system.

Center-Pivot: Automated sprinkler irrigation achieved by automatically rotating the sprinkler pipe or boom, supplying water to the sprinkler heads or nozzles, as a radius from the center of the field to be irrigated. Water is delivered to the center or pivot point of the system. The pipe is supported above the crop by towers at fixed spacings and propelled by pneumatic, mechanical, hydraulic, or electric power on wheels or skids in fixed circular paths at uniform angular speeds. Water is applied at a uniform rate by progressive increase of nozzle size from the pivot to the end of the line. The depth of water applied is determined by the rate of travel of the system. Single units are ordinarily about 1,250 to 1,300 feet long and irrigate about a 130-acre circular area.

I thought they were some sort of navigation for the military or a form of communications between each other. To much X-files for me I guess lol
