Drone captures Apple’s spaceship campus

It is not easy keeping Apple’s gigantic UFO-shaped campus under wraps.

Covering 175 acres, the company's futuristic 'Campus 2' headquarters will be a mile in circumference when it's complete in 2016, reports the Daily Mail.

The spaceship site is currently cordoned off to prevent photos, but one Apple fan has managed to get an aerial view of the building using a GoPro-equipped drone.

His resulting eight-minute video shows the circular walls being worked on with the basic layout of the enormous campus starting to take shape.

The footage was taken by YouTuber, jmcminn, using a GoPro Hero 3+ Black edition and a DJI Phantom 2 drone, which flew from the site's perimeter and later over the site in Cupertino, California.

Image of the campus taken by Apple Toolbox in May showed that work was well underway at the site.

But concept images of Apple's headquarters only reveal one part of a story which began in 2011 when co-founder Steve Jobs laid down plans for a futuristic new campus.
