Earth Largest Desert Mystery Solved By Scientists: Scientists have solved the mystery of the world's largest 'red desert'. Shocking information about his age has come to light. This desert is part of the Sahara Desert and is in Morocco, Africa. In Morocco it is also called the Hill of Lala Laliya.

This desert was formed about 13 thousand years ago

The age of this largest and most complex desert on Earth has been calculated by scientists. This desert is about 100 meters high and 700 meters wide. According to scientists about its age, this desert must have been formed about 13 thousand years ago. It was the same for the first 8,000 years, but then its shape began to grow rapidly.

Deserts are formed due to contrary winds

The research was carried out in collaboration with Professor George Duler of Aberystwyth University and Professor Charles Bristow of Birkbeck University. According to the research report, the desert was named 'Lala Lalia' after its shape. In this way, apart from deserts in Africa, Asia and North America, deserts of this type are also found on the planet Mars.

The desert is advancing at a rate of about 50 centimeters per year

These deserts are formed due to the shifting winds. Lala Lalia is called the highest holy point in the local language of Morocco. The research found that the desert is advancing at a rate of about 50 centimeters per year. Scientists used a technology called luminescence dating to determine its age.
