Similar formations on Earth?
editHi. Are there similar formations of dunes here on Earth? Or any other planet for that matter? RhinoMind (talk) 06:10, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
- @RhinoMind: I'm not sure; I recommend also asking the question at the science reference desk. —PaleoNeonate – 07:48, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hi. Thanks for the suggestion, maybe I will have try there, or simply find out by myself, if I ever get the time to dig something up about it. However, my questions was not posted out of personal interest only. I really think the article should put the dune formations into context somehow. RhinoMind (talk) 12:32, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
