Today's APOD has a rather impressive image of Cydonia:
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap060926.html -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |

Yes, very cool indeed Seen this way, it reminds me of Mount Kailash in Tibet. It is a sacred Mountain nobody was ever allowed to climb and People/Pilgrins only walk the loop; a little bit like in this video. I'd love to go there -------------------- |
