- USCPassionFruit, on 11/29/2007, -0/+10I was really expecting more.
- tboutcher, on 11/29/2007, -2/+9Thats no moon! Thats a...... never mind pictures are to lame to waste a Star Was quote on.
- inactive, on 11/29/2007, -3/+10I can almost hear the growling of imps and pig demons... shudder.
- abuelos84, on 11/29/2007, -0/+5I'm reading cmuwriter's post right now and he says "and is ONE of the brightest obj..."
- Araxen, on 11/29/2007, -1/+6Are there any pictures of what the moons look like from the ground that the rovers have taken?
- Jugalator, on 11/29/2007, -0/+5Why is this on the front page?
Seriously, there are LOTS of better quality pictures, if the pictures here is supposed to be the news.
Even Viking 1 in the 1970's captured this...

- DigitalOmnivore, on 11/29/2007, -0/+5What did they take the pic with, a cell phone cam? Where are the high quality pics?
I went looking on NASA's website, and the photos on there were low quality too. This one is a bit older but interesting:

Then I like this one more. Earth seen from their rovers now on Mars:

Now that's worthy of the Digg here, IMHO. - talasyn, on 11/29/2007, -0/+3Wow - The Martian's moons suck. Our moon rocks! Go Earth!!
- Jugalator, on 11/29/2007, -0/+3I expected them to at least be of higher quality than Viking 1's pictures from the seventies.
- guinnessstout, on 11/29/2007, -0/+3Since I've felt the wrath of Digg's large user base of English teachers before, what is Star Was?
- onionoino, on 11/29/2007, -0/+3Ha, moon rocks
- FortyCaliber, on 11/29/2007, -1/+3You must be a product of the every child left behind act.
- inactive, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2Bugger the physorg site, better article from NASA: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/MRO/multimedia/2 ...
- FTLJohnson, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2Now I see why they chose "The Rock" for that movie... I mean, just look at those pictures... That's how Hollywood thinks.
- CraigJ, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2as long as you have a BFG you'll be fine.
- victorycig, on 11/29/2007, -2/+4Honestly, I wasn't aware Mars had any moons until I saw this article... To wikipedia!
- Jugalator, on 11/29/2007, -0/+2"For someone who knows about these things, the pictures are a treasure chest."
Huh? Those people would also know that we already have far higher quality pictures of those moons since decades ago. - darny, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1now all we need are a few good shots of the leather goddesses of Phobos and we'll be all set.
- Vzylexy, on 11/29/2007, -1/+2Phobos is such an awesome name.
- typicalusername, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1What the moons are less than a couple of miles big. Go big or go home Mars!
- RealmDown, on 11/29/2007, -1/+2Well, that tells us where YOU have been.
- Scynet, on 11/29/2007, -1/+2That's directly proportional to the amount of knowledge you can draw from a single picture of a moon. For most of us here, that's not very much. For someone who knows about these things, the pictures are a treasure chest.
We're going to have to find us a Soul Cube soon, nevertheless... - inactive, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1i think it's time to stop looking at rocks on the sky
and start finding some god damn aliens.
yeeha! - la7crosse11, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1wait, when did you say it was? Oh yeah, right now, got it.
- KingGorilla, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1Oh it get's worse. Do you know how much empty space there is???? The horror
- 10lbhammer, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1damn!! I'll never figure out how someone can try and make the same joke 3 freaking hours after someone else tried to make the same damn tired joke! don't you read the comments before posting??
- mstoneburner, on 11/29/2007, -4/+5Sorry, I don't care how much science you know, these two pictures are about as full of treasure as my butthole.
- onionoino, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1thats no moon...
- onionoino, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1everything in space is interesting
- polyGone, on 11/29/2007, -0/+1What do you expect? Their race has advanced far beyond anything we can comprehend. They have 5000 dimensions!
- guinnessstout, on 11/29/2007, -2/+2Fat and ugly.
- onionoino, on 11/29/2007, -1/+1oh crap i missed that, this is what i get for not wasting my time reading all the comments before posting.
***** happens get over it. - FortyCaliber, on 11/29/2007, -2/+2Well, then the Andromeda galaxy is ONE of the brightest objects.
Its all relative... and in any event, Mars was brightest this past August at a magnitude of -2.9... the only time it was brighter than Sirius... end of this month should yield a mag. of around 0.0 at zenith. - NCSUspoon, on 11/29/2007, -1/+1You beat me to it!
- KingBunny, on 11/29/2007, -1/+1If I took a picture of a grain of sand under a microscope, could you tell the difference?
Would you care?
The point is.. umm... this is not interesting. - nesibus, on 11/29/2007, -3/+2Actually what your hearing is the orbiter complaining about its on board OS not being compatible with the moons....Vista.
- FortyCaliber, on 11/29/2007, -2/+1No, no, not really... Sirius and Jupiter still beat it and Venus always beats it... and the Sun and Moon... and Rigel, and Betelgeuse, and well most other stars...
