Except its not a "9000 square mile" pyramid (that would need a square about 95 
miles on each side). 

You can see the original announcement (in Italian) here:-

<http://www.cnr.it/cnr/news/CnrNews.html?IDn=1857>

This says "di dimensioni alla base di circa 90 x 100 metri" so its actually 
9000 square metres!! So its about 295x328 feet. If you google for "Cahuachi 
pyramid satellite 9000 square miles" you'll find that 121 news sites have all 
got it wrong!! New York metropolitan area is 6500 sq miles so I think we 
might have noticed a pyramid bigger than that without the aid of a satellite.

 Microsoft can't even get a O/S right, we shouldn't expect too much from a 
news site they own!!

Interesting use of technology though.
