Cool site with thousands of space images
-
Nasa has just released more than a thousand new images from Mars. They are included among the 44,000 plus images from space on this site: HiRISE | Image Catalog[^]
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!
I had a quick look, and one title caught my eye: Monitor Evolution of Possible Fans[^] And two things struck me: Look at the "context map" and it's ... um ... completely lacking in context! And damn it! The StreetView icon doesn't work! :laugh:
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

There are no streets on Mars; only canals. :laugh:
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

A lot of it looks like what passes for modern art around here. :doh: Marc

Very cool, but the splash page entry at North Polar Gypsum Dunes in Olympia Undae looks like bariatric surgery gone wrong or the ultimate fate of my most valued member.
