I am a climate scientist and geologist and think that climate, geology, and geography are incredibly interesting fields that people deserve to know more about. If you have any questions that you’ve sat with for a while, are just curious, want to know more about future or past scenarios, or even have worldbuilding questions, feel free to ask!
Which rock looks the funniest
Rocks have less “funny looking” characteristics to them as just a rock sample since rocks are just amalgamations of the minerals they are composed of. There are some funny looking minerals that will look the same anywhere, but rocks will only normally look funny based on their weathering or formation.
That being said, I think pillow basalt formations look pretty funny!
They’re formed by lava immediately contacting water so it forms into a ball because the outermost layer immediately solidifies. It’s kind of like piping out macarons or icing, but you are applying constant pressure to the piping bag, can’t stop, and can only move around the tray you are piping them onto
Those are pretty cool. I will remember these and tell everyone I know. Thanks.
I reread this and it may not be clear that I'm not being sarcastic.
