A piece of Mars: Some of the dunes on Mars are just plain weird. Here are some feather-shaped ones. I’m not sure anybody knows why they form these fractal shapes just yet. I don’t know of anything on Earth that looks like these. (HiRISE ESP_028024_1830 NASA/JPL/University of Arizona)

Beautiful!
I am always so amazed at pictures from other worlds!
Me too! That’s what got me into this business in the first place.
