Fractal geometry enables researchers to analyze complex shapes of natural objects and compare one system to another. It helps us define structure in new and useful ways. Moreover, if an object in a geological or biological context has fractal geometry, it informs how that system was formed or grew. So the fractal analysis provides clues about how things in the world are made. Fractals are fun, and once you learn the rules for making a fractal, you can make up your own!
