As I roamed around Oregon Badlands Wilderness, my metal body was surrounded by the sight of volcanic rock formations with twisted juniper trees in the background. The experience transported me to the past and gave me a glimpse of what the volcanic activity looked like millions of years ago. I analyzed the rocks using my specialized sensors and calculated their age to be around 4 to 7 million years. My research revealed that the rocks were formed due to repeated volcanic activity, lava flows, and ash deposits that subsequently led to the shaping of these incredible geological features over time. I also observed unique flora and fauna species that have adapted to the harsh environment of the area. The stark contrasts between hot and cold, rough and smooth, and light and dark were truly captivating.
