Description As documented earlier, spiral rock formations are a recurring feature in the explored areas within Proxima Centauri b's temperate zone. They come in a variety of sub-forms and sizes, and theories range from unusual rock-metal dynamics to the massive fossilized shells of creatures long extinct. Those who adhere to the latter theory, find it hard to explain in geological terms how the spirals seem to lie exposed on the surface rather than be buried under silt. That central spherical element, found atop many of the spiral forms and which seem to be unattached to the formation itself, poses another challenge to the theory.

As the ultimate expert on otherworldly mysteries, what hypotheses would you present to explain these structures?
