<h3>What is playa?</h3>
Playas are flat-bottomed depressions that are sometimes surrounded by water which it slowly seeps into the groundwater system or vaporizes into the atmosphere. As a result, salt, sand, and mud are deposited along the depression's bottom and around its edges.
Some key feature of playa are-
- Playas are also known as pans, flats, or dry lakes.
- They are typically found in inner desert watersheds and close to coasts in arid and semi-arid regions.
- The flattest recorded landforms are playas. Typically, their gradients are less than 0.2 meters per kilometer.
- Many kilometers of surface may be submerged when only a few centimeters of water are added.
- The nearly flawless flatness that is so distinctive of these dry region landforms is developed and maintained by the process of flooding.
- The middle, level basins of arid plains are called playas. They need drainage from the inside to a place where evaporation far outweighs intake.
- A playa lake arises when the area is inundated, concentrating salts and fine-grained debris.
- Playa terminology is somewhat confusing due to the abundance of regional names.

At low latitudes, the thermocline is a zone of rapid temperature
over a relatively short depth. it is associated with a similar depth zone marked by a change in density called the pycnocline.
Increasing wavelength is an indication of a Doppler shift caused by an object moving away from the viewer. Longer wavelengths (of the visible spectrum) are redder, shorter wavelengths are bluer. Objects moving away from you have a red shift, objects moving toward you have a blue shift.
I think two giant asteroids crashed into each other billions and trillions of years ago and slowly within the billions of years to come, one formed into earth and the other formed into the moon... Well something like that
