This one's kind of a no-brainer this one. The rocky landscape in Northern Ireland is world famous for it's distinctive appearance and it's omni-presence in Irish culture and folk-lore. Every one who has heard of or seen it is well aware that the distinctive sight of 40000 basalt columns interlocking to create and unforgettable landmark.

The rock-arrangement was formed 50-60 million years ago as the result of intense volcanic activity in the region creating a peculiar texture that would double up effectively with a mysterious alien planet. A natural, less technological planet, we think like Endor or Tatooine. Perhaps a race of uncivilised locals makes the treacherous land their home. In any case it would be a real shame to see such natural beauty being put to waste.
