Ever Notice
How ground water drainage on soil with fine sediments from 6 feet up looks just like river beds from 5000 feet up. The pattern of erosion and areas of deposit build up are the same. Well look at the Taklamakan desert in China, (N 32.86113 E 68.40088), on any satellite image from Google or ACME mapper 2.0 or what ever you like. Does it look like a glancing blow from a comet or asteroid started directly east of the Taklamakan desert basin finally digging into the Earths crust propelling huge amounts of its dust and mineral deposits as far as Bagdad. Possible the entire impact site and debris field has been slightly distorted by the Himalayan Mountain Range. Or is it possible this impact happened before the this range was developed by the tectonic plates pushed up in this area creating the Himalayas. Crazy sure, but sometimes things are really what they appear. Ok start laughing and tearing me apart now but I still pose the question and will learn from any and all sources willing to constructively criticize and educate a beginner. Thanks.
