GW6UFO is QRT at the moment

Agreed the quality is amazing when you consider what it is your looking at.
It`ll be interesting to see what else Nasa puts up on their site from this probe.

Just a pity that Beagle was a failure.

You can almost touch it heh. Amazing pictures, hard to believe its on another planet really.

Looks incredibly like Whitley Bay beach at low tide - if the explorer moves five yards to the east will find water - as for life that`s another matter.

Are you kidding - if the explorer pans two degrees either way it`ll see the fingers of the Martian holding up the Death Valley USA poster.

....next week they`ll have some of a Snickers and a Lion Bar.....
Sorry very nice...red with rocks....I`m in a dead sceptical mood today.A lot of good could have been done with the x billion dollars those photo`s cost.

thanks for the link...
now is it just me, or is that a human skull in the dead center of the photo?
(look at the full size photo)

......and had humanity always had that attitude elephant there`s be no such thing as Hollywood or region 1 DVD`s as the Americans would still own their own country instead of being penned up on reservations.

Exploration my arse. Make us a brew, Corries on.
