    Oh, these are weird indeed. The weirdness is that those parallel lines that are bright white in this image are actually something like spider troughs but they are not curved here like in all other places. It might have something to do with pre-existing topography before spiders started to form here, but I am not sure. What I can say for sure is that CO2 ice makes them bright.
