    They're crop circles, with irrigration from a central arm which rotates round.

    I guess the black ones are just underexposed.

    Beansprout beat me to it, I see in the search. Check out this topic.
    Note: The above statement is probably an educated guess, derived from much forum reading, IRC chatting, general curiosity, etc. Use at your own risk.
    Before asking, check the FAQ or search, and Ask a good question.

    They are also seen on other 2 sattelite cameras:
    Community Landsat 7 (Visible Color)
    &
    Community Landsat 7 (Pseudo Color)

    So I think it's not a technical problem.

    What does being in the middle of the desert have to do with it. If you have water you can easily have crops. They just need to use an incredibly huge amount of water to keep everything from dieing, and a huge amoint of time removing the sand that is always being blown towards the crops. Whether you believe it or not, it is being done and that is what is being shown in the photos.
