There is a problem here of sorts, if Google is trying to say it is some kind of artifact.
The problem is that I am now looking at a satellite image on Geology.com
And the lines ARE STILL THERE!
And the picture I am looking at is labeled Imagery @(copyright) 2011 NASA
What’s the link for the satellite image?
Oh, I see at the bottom of the image.
I still don’t see why a boat needs to stop and go around anything that’s UNDER the water. The article says there is nothing between the lines but either I’m crazy or there is lots that I see between the lines. Sounds more like someone wants to keep it under wraps.
