Wow what an amazing picture. The Rover's have always amazed me with the pictures they send back to us! I really hope Opportunity keeps working for quite a lot longer.

It's nice to see technology advancing like this. It's amazing to think that something thats not alive could take such incredible pictures. Good find!

It's always nice to see new images of those planets that are the closest to planet Earth.

After seeing many images from Mars, I feel that the planet doesn't look as dead as we've previously thought and if it's possible for humans to go up there, it would be a great thought knowing that in the future, we may be going up there on holidays or evacuating Earth if this global warming crisis becomes a serious issue.

That's a nice picture of the Mars crater, nice find

Wow, that is fairly cool (well, hot ), I wish I could go there someday. Maybe the general public will someday, but not in my lifetime . Still, great pictures, and better than nothing

I love and hate seeing images from space. On the one hand, I love to see the images and awe in their glory and the beauty of colour, especially the gas clouds around new stars. Although I hate to see them as it makes me feel so insignificate, the Universe is in sanely large and on the scale needed to measure it I don't even stand. In the words of a friend "It's a blip of a blip of a blip..." By that he means that it's not even a tiny amount, it's smaller.

I guess that's why people do crazy things to make their names "go down in history", simply because they are affraid to face their own mortality and realise just how insignificant we all are. Wow. The universe is stupidly large and we have only seen a blip of a blip of....it, it'll many many years before we really understand even a blip of life.

Mind you, we'll have probably killed each other by then, Nuclear war and all that Jazz.

Hmm, the size of the universe might be an illusion caused by the limitations of senses not evolved to understand it's true dimensions or essential aspects.

Puzzling? Not really. But look at it this way. If you could be ANYWHERE you wanted to be by just deciding to be there, then what would the word 'distance' mean to you? Or would you even have such a word in your vocabulary?

Just some personal thoughts, nothing more. But as our minds and knowledge grow over the next few billion years I have the feeling we're going to find the universe is a lot smaller and more finite than it seems to us now.

I like to see space images also, the colors and stars look amazing, kind of like if the picture had been messed up with photoshop. I wonder if humans will ever colonize mars, it seems like a worthless idea, but I dont know, maybe they can find some kind of precious stone or useful material over there. Something that you cant find on earth.

I love space and anything space related. Thank you for the images.

Have any of you browsed through the galleries on the Nasa site? Some awesome pics there. Especially in from the Hubble space telescope.
