This third time I see it – contrast slider set all the way up to halfway across the galaxy.
Only God knows what it will look like once its done the rounds of social media and then come back. It’ll probably look like an actual Zebra, with idiots claiming it to be one.

Looks like a boulder of mylonitic gneiss, well-rounded, so not from around here…
Yep, with all my expertise i can confidentally confirm, that that is a rock.
Also might there be aliencum on it
Once again nicely post-processed by NASA. The contrast and colors are very realistic ahum! Was the original not spectacular enough?
