It doesn't add anything, as dunes would be expected there.
I always find it funny when people say things like "we can rule out the major geological theories, lava tubes and sand dunes", specially when talking about something they are not sure what it may be.As an ATS Staff Member, I will not moderate in threads such as this where I have participated as a member.

If you look at valley glaciers you will see they form the same junctions in many cases and underground frozen ground like frost heave form tubes that often have ribs like the mars pictures when they melt out.
It is very cold on Mars. i believe there is water ice and life on Mars.

Yes that is a very good point. But, I don't think many individuals looked at the 7 minute video based on the posts.
* At one point the 'tube' was crushed and crossed over another.
* A vast network of tubes all connecting to the same place.
* A tube directly connecting the face on mars with the 'town center' to the large 'pyramid.'
This is evidence that builds up, I like the pic that Phage supplied but I am almost more skeptical of that pic than an actual tube because it doesn't look like a glacier with snow zebra stripes to me.

That's something I don't understand, why he says that the "tube" was crushed by a boulder? I couldn't even find the boulder that supposedly crushed the "tube", that's why I would like to know what photos did he use.
The "glass tubes" are not glaciers with snow zebra stripes, they are sand dunes, at least to me.
If there were a large biological entity on Mars — such as an annelid-type worm, known for its burrowing and tilling of soils — such a creature might account for the combination of geologic anomalies, and their association with what appears to be the remains of a large “glass-like worm!” It is a fact that in the image the feature looks like a “glass worm” — especially if one does not take the prodigious scale into account.
The canyon also appears to have several “overhangs,” locally. Now, ask yourself: “which direction did the wind have to be blowing, to create these dune-like features in this canyon?” Some investigators seem to be focusing on light angles, while totally ignoring the crucial wind direction — when it’s the wind that would create such deposition they are postulating. The wind either had to be blowing up or down the canyon toward the south. The “dune” forms themselves rule out a wind direction at any significant angle to the canyon axis – which is almost due north/south. If the wind was blowing “upstream,” then the dunes would be arched in such a manner as their tips — or the concave part of the “dunes” — would be pointing, or facing “upstream.” The wind had to be blowing generally “downstream” (from north to south) to create the shapes displayed in MGS image MO4-00291. Now, what happens when the wind encounters another entrant into the main canyon — a ‘”Y” in the canyon, or the proverbial “fork in the road?” This happens in two places in this canyon system. One might even expect that, as the wind blew over the precipice at the mouth of the entrant canyon (the ‘Y’), heading south it would tend to pick up additional sediments and then dump them unceremoniously at the toe of the intruding precipice. If what can be seen at the mouth of that entrant is indeed chaotic dumping of sediments, then (because they are significantly dark) they must be of different composition than the “dune-deposited sediments” of high reflectance - which, remember, is being postulated as a more mundane explanation for the mile-plus long repetitive pattern in direct opposition to the structural “tube ribbing model” we have favored. A dark deposit at this crucial juncture of the “main” and “entrant” canyon flies directly in the face of the “opposition’s” model: that the airborne materials making up the “dunes” in the main canyon all derive from some other area which visibly contains sorted sediments of significantly higher reflectance than the possible deposits at the base of this overhanging northern cliff. Especially at the southern “fork,” we see a striking continuation of the “regular dune pattern”. Furthermore, you can discern the same pattern spacing at the toe of the precipice with only a slight variation from the regularity of the established “depositional” pattern seen in the main valley. Not only does the continuing regularity of the striking pattern at the “worm forks” pose a non-trivial problem for the “dune advocates,” so does the fact that if our assumption of the wind direction — “downstream” — is correct (and that is the only wind direction that makes any sense, given the curving geometry of the subject features themselves — if they are dunes) because in the entrant canyons the “ribs” or “dunes” are in areas, approaching an orientation of nearly ninety degrees to those same features in the main canyon.

Sand dunes.....even the crater that looks to have dome/golf ball in it....sand dunes.
Can't be bothered to link the photo as this has been all done and dusted a hundred times before!
Groundhog Day on ATS again!
low of about -225 degrees Fahrenheit (-153 degrees Celsius) at the poles.
Here are the best original close ups I could find.

Some of them may follow old water courses but some are probably collapsed lava tubes. "Residual water" is problematic because of the low atmospheric pressure on Mars.
I'm not sure why you don't think they are sand dunes. We know there is sand on Mars. We know there are sand dunes on Mars.
Can you show an example of parallel ice heave effects?

You know it could just be a natural formation, these types of phenomenon aren't too strange on earth either. I do recall a "band of holes" somewhere in Peru.edit on 10-2-2013 by SecretaryOfBacon because: (no reason given)
Archaeologists believe that it's actually digs for the storage of grain... the question is why bother to spend the time and tremendous effort to do so. Then they said: "Well, then it may be the tomb?". But the problem is that in any hole, there are no bones, jewelry, artifacts, notes ... nothing.

Because of sections like the bottom left, it looks as though the "dune" is protruding above the surface. I realize at these distances all can be illusion, I would like to see all the "tube" area up close. Maybe those pictures have already been seen, I have not seen them that I know of.

Doesn't get much clearer than this.

The ravines in which the dunes lie change directions and as pointed out, some of these ravines are probably collapsed lava tubes but ancient water courses would also change directions.
The way that the formations change direction at certain points is so unlike sand yet lava does do this.
