Here’s one final fact concerning the odd Earth shapes I’ve been hinting about: there are more than 500,000 of them.
They are not man-made. How did they come to exist, why, and when?
In this small image from Google Earth, you can see hundreds of them outlined within a two-county area in the U.S. Thursday, the rest of the story.
Stumble it!

I’ve seen something similar in western Kansas. The circles are made by gigantic watering systems that prowl in a circle across fields. I’m not sure yours are the same thing.
