Apple ‘spaceship’ campus construction caught on film by flying drone

9to5-image 2014-08-31 at 10.18.52 AMThe 8-minute video, highlighted by Apple Spotlight and embedded below, shows the latest progress on Apple’s Campus 2. Although the spaceship site is cordoned off by high walls to prevent pictures at street level, a GoPro-equipped drone has no trouble getting the aerial shots seen in the video. Images of the campus were last seen in July

In that time, the video shows that the project has made significant progress, with it looking less like dirt and more like the foundation of buildings. The video also highlights the sheer size of the property in relation the surrounding buildings. Apple is expected to complete Campus 2 in 2016.

    More Millennium Falcon than DeathStar, but looks huge!

    What’s the music you laid over the top of the video!

    An interesting question: How they can continue to build the concrete for these structures without having water, since California is in serve drought issue right now?
