Everyone is attacking the author's credentials, but I'd like to see what people have to say about image 30.

Even if it's not organic, they are pretty odd looking formations that I haven't seen on Earth in any inorganic way.

Sure, but you also haven't seen geological processes working at -50C at pressures similar to the upper atmosphere, have you?

By that logic, we should not be able to interpret anything we see at all.

Nevertheless, the image on picture 30 looks like something that grew out of the ground because it's on a stem.
