These images, taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft, are Europe’s highest-resolution pictures so far of the Martian moon Phobos. http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Mars_Express/SEM21TVJD1E_0.html |

I'm still exploring the Mars Express Phobos images. This, I think, is the highest resolution image yet, from orbit 756. The original file was 169 MB, but largely dark sky. I have played with the contrast a bit to brighten the terminator. Several blocks casting shadows can be found along the terminator.

Nice image, Phil. Where do the JPEG-ish artifacts come from, was this one lossy compressed before transmission?
