In pics: Alien landscapes on Earth

Our planet is full of so many natural wonders that in some places you actually wonder if you walked through a worm hole in space and reached another dimension far away, into an Alien Planet.

Within our Earth, there are ice landscapes in the Arctic that resemble Europa (a moon of Jupiter) and we have rocky red deserts that could well be on Mars, such as the Wadi Rum in Jordan or the Atacama of South America. Then there are volcanoes spewing out myriad hues like those on the surface of Io (another moon of Jupiter) or blue green lakes as those found on Titan (Saturn’s moon). On our planet we have places where you feel like you are Neil Armstrong who’s just landed on the lunar surface, such as in the Valley of the Moon in La Paz, Bolivia. Many of these strange worlds have been part of popular Hollywood movies such as The Martian, Interstellar, Star Wars amongst others. The below photographs have captured landscapes from all over our beautiful planet and hopefully they will capture your imagination as well.
