Cave Popcorn


Found this in a Google search for Kentucky + alien.

Though it does indeed look like some sort of alien brain, it's actually a coralloid formation known amongst spelunkers as Cave Popcorn. Cave Popcorn can range from small, delicate and fluffy-looking in appearance, to thick and bulbous calcite deposits such as these.
