What's inside this crater in Madagascar. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
diverse places in the world. Almost all of its plants and animals aren’t found anywhere else on Earth. And when we looked at it from space, we saw a spot. A massive dark circle, almost perfectly round, over thirteen kilometers in diameter, and big enough that roads are diverted on either side of it. Looking at it from the side, we could see it was a mountain. And if you zoomed all the way in, you could see a village nestled in the crater at its center. 8 kilometers from the closest labeled town on Google Maps.

Markings in White. Content Warning.
Weak sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting hesitant streaks across Cole Hayes' face as he lay motionless in bed.

Some people define earthy elements as "natural" while defining desired notions and will-powered constructions as "manufactured" also called "man-made products". As the natural and manufactured environments have molded me, I have modified my surroundings accordingly based upon the suburban, city, or country location.
