Okay, nice move NASA, but is it IN 3D ???

Beat me to it.

In the first pictures that came back from (if I remember rightly) Voyager 2 Europa looked like Tattooine to me. I was kind of disappointed to learn it was covered in ice, not sand. Still there is some resemblance.

At that temperature (<125 K), I believe water ice is basically a rock, and small broken bits of it could be called sand.
