First pictures from Mars

Re: Re: First pictures from Mars

Another thing you haven't mentioned is that the picture is a single, flat shot from a 3-D 360 degree high-res shot of the landscape. The whole thing will be quality. Especially with those retro 1970s 3D glasses.

Surely one of the papers (News Of The World maybe?) has plans to give away 3-D glasses and a nice glossy supplement with the Mars photos in? That would be decent

ooooh - I remember when we got glasses with little pin holes in the middle for watching the eclipse in Australia - they later issued an apology to all those people who used them incorrectly and now have a hole in the middle of their vision!!

Yes, but the NOTW would super-impose a topless Jakki Degg on top, for extra 3D effects.

It's very cool

(edit: the picture seems to be down at the moment. Perhaps they had to take it down because it got too many hits?)

Blimey! You're right, it IS very cool! Sharp as a pin - and more than a bit spooky

And that big round disc top left hand corner looks suspiciously like Beagle

That is a very good picture.

I think it's obvious what happened to the Beagle. The Martians are clearly Oasis fans and as soon as they heard that Blur call sign chime up they smashed it into many pieces.

For those that care:

Beagle 2 has been lost forever, last ditch attempt to contact it today have failed, they keep saying that they will keep trying but it dont look good.

Europe Fails but NASA succeeds.
