The one Mars photo you posted looks distinctly fungal to me. All those scattered, dark eruptions forming, with more mature areas having raised growths ready to spore out. If so the surface is only the tip of the iceberg. Isn’t there some unusual, mostly underground mushroom in the Pacific northwest that covers an area measured in square miles?
