@mattblaze I love the fact that you are interested in the facts and history. :)I never would've guessed what that was. The parts of NORAD that I've come across in Canada are the domed radar towers. This one was part of the Barrington Air Station, operational in 1957, decommissioned in 1990, and this remaining part is now a Canadian Coastal Radar site. We went here to see the lighthouse and as fog lifted, were rather surprised to see it dwarfed by the radar station.

Looking across a field of low vegetation to see a huge building that is a tall rectangle with a dome on top standing to the right of a white lighthouse, which looks insignificant in comparison. It's a bright day, but fog is still enshrouding the top of the domed building.

    @mattblaze From the air. On this day, the Bay was looking muddy and that interesting wave seems some sort of demarcation.Sorry, not trying to hijack your post, you just reminded me of how interesting it looks from the air as well. :)It's interesting to see your image, because those light pylons in my image seem to be a limited part of the bridge or is that just the lighting?

    Looking down on a multi-lane bridge over water from the air. A large white tower is beside it, on our side.  The colour of the water is giving an interesting soft pink and white look to the image.  The pavement of the lanes is very light in colour, and the bridge railings look pink..  The pylons in the water are also a light colour. The water seems muddy and is divided roughly from mid left to lower right by a white wave.  The upper water looks pinkish-tan; the lower water looks more brown.

    @Tutanota stuff like this just makes the people they claim to be aiming for dig further down. It won’t stop them. It will make things unsafe for everyone else, as back doors can be exploited.
