- Sealbhach, on 06/24/2009, -0/+17I Like the Earth & Moon from Mars. It's just like I remembered it.
- leetsoleet, on 06/24/2009, -0/+16The last pic is pretty sweet
- taintedlove, on 06/24/2009, -0/+15So much geology to be done on Mars, so many secrets to be revealed
- TheHIV, on 06/24/2009, -0/+10I... um... What?
- benroy, on 06/24/2009, -0/+9What the ***** are you talking about?
Use your WORDS... - peccadillop, on 06/24/2009, -1/+6Our moon looks much better than mars'es :P
- jrm125, on 06/24/2009, -0/+4I wish I could go exploring. The frontier is just beginning...
- DeadliestSnatch, on 06/24/2009, -0/+4I would much rather drive my country into debt with scientific exploration than with pointless wars.
- DaiMa, on 06/24/2009, -0/+3light pollution and expensive equipment would be my guess...
i bet there is a shot like that from some government agency - Tyrghast, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2Damn the moon is really far from the Earth.
- Doomsan, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2If only it weren't a slideshow.
- CATSCEO2, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2They're most likely captured asteroids. Phoebes is going to crash into Mars in the future.
- Moralogic, on 06/24/2009, -1/+3Space, the final frontier. To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before.
- consoneo, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2I dunno if this as big as we can get, but it's what I found: http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/214812main_Eart ...
- Moralogic, on 06/24/2009, -1/+3You are telling me. So many questions to be answered.
Where is all of the water on Mars?
Is there currently life on Mars? If not, has there been life on Mars? If yes, then how complex and intelligent did the life get? Is life on Mars related to life on Earth? If not, how does it differ?
How dead is the core of Mars? If dead, what does the core look like and say about it's death?
And much much more... - stoperror, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2That b*tch is annoying! Who watches Friends anyway?
- KingGorilla, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2Mars bitches
- pilotkid, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2now this I agree with, thank god Bush is gone!
- FattyMagee, on 06/24/2009, -1/+3I guess your set with man just dieing out on earth and not spreading its seeds to other worlds overtime aka losing the game of life
- bigplrbear, on 06/24/2009, -0/+2Great pics :)
- MacGyver2210, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Mice are Australian, duh, didn't you ever see The Rescuers?
(they were mice, right? I was like 6...) - gordigor, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1This is probably a dumb question, but if that's the view from Mars of Earth, why don't we have a smiliar view of Mars?
I'm sure its a not a on-ground view - rodrigo74, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Need a hi-res version of that..
- minigig, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Not true most are in the millions take http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_(spacecraft)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Pathfinder
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sojourner_(rover)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Exploration_Rove ... <---the most costly
granted still expensive and in the many 100's of millions of dollars but not billions and with a mission plan for less then a 100 million is not out of the question. - soybeast, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Are the Mars moons really that disfigured?
- hfactor, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Actually, it looks much closer in this picture than it really is. Maybe due to perspective, maybe due to being a photomontage. Diameter of Earth: ~12750km, distance to the moon: ~363000km at the closest point to Earth.
- Hellahulla, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Our moon is just a boring grey rock. Mars' moons are both fairly featureful.
- kdmkdmkdm, on 06/24/2009, -1/+2The photo is are... and way to go, you capitalized awesome
- BlackLabel2021, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Neat...
- giantnegro, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1luckily, the telegraph doesn't have any respect to worry about. That last image could not have been taken from Mars; it was likely taken on the way to Mars.
- GlitchEnzo, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/earthmoon.php
Same resolution, but has some interesting additional information. - sanman, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1coz Mars is not as big
if you're standing on a small rock looking at a big rock far away, it's easier to spot than if you're standing on a big rock looking at a small rock far away
plus that image is taken from orbit with zoom - mokshjuneja, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1this seems to look like those illusion images!!!
- davidjunit, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1Seeing Mars' moons makes me want to finish that DOOM3 expansion pack, heh.
- Wrake, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1If you walk without rhythm, it won't disturb the worm.
- biologee, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1So many typos (or just bad grammar) in those captions, you'd think a respected newspaper would keep a wrap on those things.
- marcov, on 06/24/2009, -0/+1The average earth-moon distance is roughly 30 * earth diameter, so the last pic is actually edited to bring them closer together.
- super_liman, on 06/24/2009, -0/+0Although I do agree, the other side of our moon is considered pretty ugly by many. However, I still think it looks cool:
http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/imgcat/hires/a16_m_3021 ... - josh22, on 06/24/2009, -1/+1You'll rot your brain watching that rubbish.
- pilotkid, on 06/24/2009, -2/+2Finally someone with some intelligence...
- ELYON1, on 06/24/2009, -0/+0"The ripples have over time become coverd with dust which may account for the brighter tones"
"may" ? And what's with the typos in the footnotes?
Cool pictures though. - brucealmighty, on 06/24/2009, -2/+2You're too modest....any Mars mission is in the billions not millions....and what we find will be interesting to some specialists but of very little practical value to anyone else.
- WatIsNotTaknYet, on 06/24/2009, -0/+0Look's like the moon's hitting puberty.
- apoc2050, on 06/24/2009, -1/+1

..................................., - Asymptote9, on 06/24/2009, -0/+0Not as big of pics as I was hoping - my friend said "hi res" - not really.
- pilotkid, on 06/24/2009, -2/+1Your right I am
- moft, on 06/24/2009, -1/+0"World's most powerful camera" - shouldn't that be "Space's", in while case, I'm sure Hubble would be?
