Lots of cool NASA sites have 3D images. I would imagine there would be a place or a way to get the 3D glasses for free. Anyone know anything about this?

I've been happy with my clip-ons from rainbowsymphony, but Airbag's comments about ghosting made me curious. Now, I am questioning my happiness. Ghosting seems to be a problem for anaglyphs where there are large and abrupt changes in brightness, such as in those of Opportunity at Meridiani. It is hard to avoid ghosting with the very bright white outcrops contrasting with the very dark sand drifts.

I opened one of those with some obvious ghosting problems and viewed it alternately with the plastic clip-ons and a cheap cardboard pair. I was surprised to discover that the view through the el-cheapo glasses was indeed less affected by the ghosting. I'm at a bit of a loss to explain it, since the clip-on filters seem to have the same color density (Is that the right terminology?) in red as the cardboard glasses, and the cyan filter seems to be denser.

I bought the plastic glasses too from Rainbow and they are tight on my head too, and my hat size is 6 7/8th's, which is not big.
