There are some really strange things on this plane when seen from the air. I have no clue what this is, but it is interesting, and a little artistic.

With no known exceptions, the cost of internal trust, efficiency and loyalty is external distrust. The "us against them" is not an optional feature, if there were some way to preserve the loyalties and the tremendous benefits of internal trust without paying the cost of the ferocious xenophobia, then that would be just what we want to do. But we don't know how to do that.

That has to be the #1 weirdest terrain I have ever seen. There has to be something writen about it somewhere. It's high on my list to Google. Quite a find

My first thought was clouds, but it just didnt look like any clouds anywhere else. Does Iran have any Keyholers who could educate us? At very least, they are unusual clouds.

It looks to me like some sort of erosional landform in tilted sedimentary strata. Up close it has a resemblance to some kinds of tree bark. Placemarked is a road crossing one edge of it.

Then again, look at the patterns in this dune field in Libya. A mixture of depositional and erosional effects.

"You should have... sent... a poet..."
This area is just plain amazing. From the main, folder view it is giant blue egg on a sunny side, but bave a look at the 4 close up croppings... I am certain you can find many many more amazing views of this relatively small area
