Sea of red
Posted by Mr. Buracas on 2008-04-13
The Flames are on tonight (note to the rest of the world, who may be finding us for the first time: we are Calgary Flames fans, here), and as I watch, I also surf.
This is an amazing photo. Part of a photo, actually. A very small part of a grand mosaic produced Opportunity, on of the two Mars Rovers.
Yes, this is Mars!
The photo comes to us by way of the Martian Chronicles Blog, to which you should head to see the full image in full resolution.
If I hadn’t said that this was Mars, you might think it was Earth herself. Dunes, just like those found in the Sahara or Namib Deserts, Or even closer to home.
A sea of red. Just like at the Saddledome.
