HiRISE Camera Details Dynamic Wind Action on Mars

http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.nl.html?pid=24592

"Mars has an ethereal, tenuous atmosphere at less than 1 percent the surface
pressure of Earth, so scientists working on The University of Arizona's High Resolution Imaging
Experiment, or HiRISE, are challenged to explain the complex, wind-sculpted landforms they're
now seeing in unprecedented detail."

The moral of the story is, you don't need Hoaxland-style nonsense to find some
pretty bizarre things in this Universe.
