Description

Deep in Death Valley National Park, there’s a dried up lakebed that’s home to some of the most extreme weather on the continent. It’s also home to the sailing stones: giant hunks of rock that inexplicably move across the desert all by themselves. Finally, with the help of some scientific equipment and a lot of patience, scientists discovered the surprising explanation for the sailing stones.

is this done in a paper? the podcast explanation explains nothing... instead of no explanation for moving rocks it provides no expl for a huge sheet of thin ice dragging rocks. the mechanism described makes no sense
