Added 1 new A* page:In looking up something for that "elephant" on Mars photo by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter yesterday, I came across a couple more recent cool MRO photos! So here they are:
image by NASA/JPL-Caltech/Univ. of Arizona (source) ^ Those are sand dunes in "enhanced color," which...well I'm not sure what it means, but it sure is pretty. The dunes are in an impact crater, and the image shows an area about 1 km wide.
image by NASA/JPL-Caltech/Univ. of Arizona (source) ^ A Martian dust devil! This image is about 600 meters across; the dust devil was estimated to have been 30 meters in diameter and 800 meters high. The background surface here looks almost like a tiling texture, doesn't it? Ooh caught you, NASA! Juuuust kidding. :P Gonna do my big ink comparison testing this weekend! This should be interesting. Detailed ink blots next week!
