Amazing image on APOD today (http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap061009.html), showing the Victoria crater, as well as the Rover tracks, the Rover itself and the shadow from it's camera mast, all taken from the hi-resolution camera onboard the MRO, currently orbiting Mars.
Just amazing resolution and clarity.

That is truly amazing...not only the photo but all it represents...clearly if "aliens" are driving around Mars in a vehicle similar to a 4WD then we will be able to get a photograph of them...proof at last! ;)
I thought Mars was too low for you Mike?
Anyway another great image from you mate and congrats on making APOD again...
Oh wait a minute ..... :ashamed:
:lol:
Thanks for the link, amazing shot.
