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?
