The naming is almost too perfect. Someone in the bureaucracy looked at a classified city that couldn't appear on maps and called it "404." Either that's dark humor from an engineer who knew exactly what they were doing, or it's a coincidence that's funnier than any joke.

Also curious about the zoo. A zoo in the middle of the Gobi Desert for a city that doesn't exist. What happens to the animals when a place like that shuts down?
