Otherworldly sculptured tattoo

October 24th, 2009


Natural, created by aliens or supernatural
Natural, created by aliens or supernatural? “Oooooowoooo” said the wind.

NASA recently published this piece of art.

Is it a tattoo artist’s odd rendering on human flesh? A faded pumpkin awaiting a carving knife? An alien civilization’s long awaited message of hope and salvation? Does someone spy a French imperial symbol amongst the graffiti? Is that proof of some Halloween religious conspiracy?

Actually, the markings are caused by dust-devils roving the ever-changing sands of Mars.

Shall we liken them to the shapes carved long ago by South American indians on the sands of the Alti-plano, or simply marvel at nature’s creative impulses?

What do you think?
