In 1981 during the Voyager Mission, Saturn s hexagon was discovered on its North pole the gaseous cloud is so far the biggest hexagon ever reported! The sides of this hexagon is estimated to be approx Kilometer! Much more than the Earth s radius!

The molten magma in volcanic process oozed out in the coast and when the lava solidified quickly the enormous amount of stresses got released resulting into the famous hexagonal columnar structure of Basalt! Too far to visit? No worries! In our own country, the Deccan trap terrain of Basalt has similar polygonal structures in Karnataka, Maharashtra and Gujarat, the prominent one being St.Mary s Isles, located approx 7 km of Udupi. 02
