I don't have an educated guess but I will say Mars. Isn't it red?<br><br>The wine urges me on, the bewitching wine, which sets even a wise man to singing and to laughing gently and rouses him up to dance and brings forth words <br>which were better unspoken.<br>Homer

I would not be so sure it is a planet, since it could be a moon such as IO but if you aren't going to put us out of our misery, then I will ask "what is this?"<br><br>=============================================================<br>| "Behold the Turtle, he maketh no progress ==== until he sticketh out his neck." |<br>=============================================================

No, I don't think it could be Yellowstone, it looks too dry. It is a desert region I would think on Earth, or perhaps some other planet like Mars. Maybe the Arabian Peninsula? [censored], I don't know where the hell it is.<br><br>
