Yes, the tri-flier sure is about to obliterate that poor alien pedestrian.  Another great look deep in the stories that ice can tell, Gary.  The details in the larger view are wonderful.

Cool!  There are so many ways to look at this, from a high-speed crash to a macro view of tiny creatures colliding head-on.  (I may be the only one to see it that way because I spent several years studying tiny bark beetles, and the spoon-shaped implement in the lower right looks exactly like the antenna of one of those grain-of-rice-size critters.)

The beauty and genius of a work of art may be reconceived, though its first material expression be destroyed; a vanished harmony may yet again inspire the composer; but when the last individual of a race of living beings breathes no more, another heaven and another earth must pass before such a one can be again. William Beebe, 1906
