What I find intriguing are the two mesas on the lower right side of
the image. It appears obvious that there was "flow" of some sort
around these outcrops that carved them into nearly airfoil shape.
I would guess liquid water rather than airborne dust.

Hi "Editor", (Should I check my spelling?

Yes, very intriguing. And actually, we shouldn't have to guess - that lower
right TEAR DROP shaped hill is "virtually" CRYING:

Water, water, every where,
And all the hills did shrink!
Water, water, gone, but where,
On yonder star, yuh think?

I'm not an ancient mariner,
As all can plainly see;
I'm only one dry tear drop here,
Upon a sandy sea.

O bright blue star, with silver moon,
My plea rise up to thee:
Upon my tongue, a drop, just one,
That's all I ask for me.

But O my tongue, through utter drought,
More withers at the root;
Yet more I speak, for ought or nought,
(Sniff,) 'scuze me, gotta snoot.

(: Part Two

"Stunned by that loud and dreadful sound,
Which sky and ocean smote,"
Upon the land, the stars did pound,
And crumbled all my moat.

Upon the rift, where sank the deep,
The waters whirled around;
And naught was left, yet here we weep,
Dry tears upon the ground.

(The hill, the hill, the tear drop hill,
Upon the plain did sit;
And woe the tale, upon the vale,
Where asteroids did hit.)

And now my friend, you're sad, I see,
But cry no more for me:
The second picture, do you see?
My once lost Play-uh-dee!

And now, Gentle Reader, sit back and look again, at the terraced hill-stars of
Mars. [1st picture] From the lower right tear drop hill-star of the "mother"
Pleione, move your eyes up to the more fatherly "Atlas" hill, then left to the
daughter hill "Alcyone"; further left - two more hills (holding hands?)
"Electra" with "Celaeno" below. (Yes, I know, Celaeno in the sky is further to
the left - move the "proper motion" back a few thousand years - it shifts to
the right Next, on the biggest hill below, 3 peaks in a triangle, at about
1:00 o'clock, 5:00, and 8:00 - "Maia", "Sterope", and "Taygeta". [Click on 1st
picture to view the 2nd picture] Look above Alcyone and behold: the "lost" star
hill of "Merope", missing in the 1st picture. What? Merope is too far away? -
probably tried to elope with Barnard's Runaway Star, or something. (See the
baby hill nearby?

"Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of
Orion?" (--the Lord, speaking to Job 38:31)

"The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the
seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven
churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches."
(--the Lord, speaking to John in Revelation 1:20)

Of course, it's "probably" just coincidental that these hills are arranged
"sort of" like the Pleiades, the seven stars. However it is worth noting, that
the heavenly M45 (Pleiades) star cluster is still immersed in wondrous
sparkling blue seas - so-called "reflection nebulae." But the last tear drop on
Mars has been high and dry for quite a many years now. (Do we really need to
ask what happened, to the atmosphere and water on Mars?)

"Stunned by that loud and dreadful sound,
Which sky and ocean smote,"

We see, that about ninety-one percent of the Mars craters are found, on that
half of Mars called: "The Hemisphere of Craters". The largest crater is 6 miles
deep. In "The Opposite Hemisphere", the Tharsis bulge sticks out -more- than 6
miles. When the fifth planet between Mars and Jupiter was destroyed and became
the asteroid belt, Mars was bombarded with a massive "blitzkrieg" of hundreds
and thousands of fragments *before* it could rotate much more than 40 minutes
upon its moaning axis.

The question is not, What happened to the water? - the question is, Why did God
spare 8 souls in an ark here on earth? And why does he still want to spare our
souls? Thanks in advance for your patience and kind replies. (I truly hope my
poetic message will be better received than Paul's quoting of poetry in Acts
17:22-34 "in the midst of Mars' hill."

God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to
repentance. The word of faith says, That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth
the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raise him from
the dead, thou shalt be saved; For whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved. (Let not the hills of your cheeks be hard and dry, pour
out your heart to the Lord now, while he is near.) The grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ be with us all. Amen. --Richard
