Those aren't oil tanks. They're irrigation circles.Sun May 21 19:42:29 -0700 2006 From: timfrost
Sorry. You are right, considering the size of the circles. Anyway, I thought it was an interesting pattern that looked rather like an Irish terrier.Mon May 22 03:51:19 -0700 2006 From: SeeKar

Pretty amazing. Even when you zoom out far enough to see the Red Sea, you can still see these irrigation circles! Question: What is the white line that's running through the area? Is it a big runway?Wed May 24 18:49:04 -0700 2006 From: paulheckbert
That's the Kufra oasis, where a huge aquifer was discovered. See:
