The Martian dunes of Siton Undae

• ... that the Martian dunes of Siton Undae (pictured) are mostly composed of volcanic glass? Source and quote (page 16): "The strongest evidence for the existence of glaciovolcanic eruption products results from the observations by Horgan and Bell (2012a) who used the OMEGA instrument on the European Mars Express satellite. Their detailed spectral analyses of the dark sand seas around the North Pole and the largest dune field Siton Undae in the northern lowlands suggest that 80-90% of these sand fields consist of volcanic glass formed by explosive volcanism, such as glaciovolcanism..."

• @Dr.K.: New, in time, long enough, sourced, hook is sourced and checks out, no copyvios seen. Just needs QPQ. I'd also recommend (not a DYK requirement) that you put the images in their own section as with Hyperboreae Undae, as currently they leave a lot of blank space on the page. --Usernameunique (talk) 05:44, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

• Wow. What can I say? Thank you again. I have never seen such a hard-working reviewer. This is really great for DYK. As far as the picture suggestion, I was just about to do it. Thank you for that too. :) I'll do the QpQ asap. Take care. Dr. K. 05:48, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
