With so many rocks, which one is the biggest? Professor of Mathematics Arima Nayar explains the science behind big rock discovery, and where the hunt could take us next.

The rocks you have found are TINY compared to the ones I have found. Go home amateurs.

This picture doesn't really do it justice. I should pay a visit to it someday and bring my drone.

Clearly you used the AI app "Rock Enlarger" on this photo!

The only way a rock that big could be plopped down there is if a HUGE MASSIVE glacier covered the entire landscape in an ice sheet hundreds of feet thick and the rocks were transported during a period where earth was dominated by cold and ice and every once in awhile the glaciers erratically deposited huge rocks brought along and smoothed by the movement of the ice sheet as it grew and shrank overtime.

No way, clearly AI!
