NPA 2012 Expo of Experiments: Arc-discharges of Dust Covered CRT make Planetary-like Features

 

Electro/mass-lifting

Dry ice-blocks formed
Grooves from ridge of
Russel Crater's Dune
Blocks of dry ice have been shown to form grooves like these.

Note closely the right-angle grooves^^>>
their orientation is consistent
Interior and exterior grooves
and ridges are common

Arc-formed Features


Despite all these simalar features made with electric discharge,
there is a far more plausable explanation, as of 2013, from researchers at JPL.
They propose dry ice blocks skidding across the surface, and they back it with experiments

 


Match to CRT feature found in Gale crater on Mars.
