"How could there be "ripples" if there's no air or wind?"hmm, no air or wind you say.so those are magic giant duststorms on mars?"Mars also has the largest dust storms in the Solar System.

i'm impressed with the homogeneity of opinion here considering the circumstances. check out the discussions on slashdot and marsroverblog.(a) the color is photoshopped(b) the surface isn't flat(c) the pic comes from a 20-30 degree slope(d) the entire cliffside is covered in the same material(e) HINT: IT'S DUST
