Earth's Richat Structure

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Richat Structure, a striking feature in the Sahara Desert, is nearly 50 kilometers across. Once thought to be an impact crater, its flat center and lack of shock-altered rock suggest a different origin. Scientists now believe it's a deeply eroded dome, revealing layers of sedimentary rock.
