The country of Dubai, a small Arab nation off the Persian Gulf, is constructing a giant palm tree shaped resort island, that will add nearly 70 miles of shoreline and will be visible from the moon. They are already 1/3 completed with the sand reclamation effort.

A pretty wild picture of the project can be seen at http://www.dubaicityguide.com/specials/palmisland.htm

It won't mean nothing unless they place at least one tiki bar on the island.
