INCREDIBLE, Daniel--thank you!!!!
In my opinion this is by far the most classically 'alien'-looking little world examined by spacecraft to date--straight out of a 1950s B-movie. Amazing to think of how different the processes by which all these odd, jagged landforms arose must be from those we've observed elsewhere. With any luck, though, we'll be able to see those processes in action a bit. -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
