The Hoaglandites have been missing quite a few bets over the last few years anyway. Eros looks like a giant bedroom slipper; Borrelly like a bowling pin; and there are at least two heart-shaped craters on Mars and one on Eros. Nor must we forget that feature on Mars that looks exactly like a gigantic bas-relief of Kermit the Frog sitting on a branch and singing, thereby proving not only that there was intelligent life on Mars but that they worshipped Muppets.

The 'H' on Titan is the best. Someone actually believes it's artificial, because there is an H shaped lake in the Sahara

The branch-sitting Kermit proves only that the Martians could a) see into the future,
 loved cloth green frog-like representations, and c) loved to form mountains into whatever tickled their fancy. All evidence thus far has clearly pointed to this conclusion (such as the patch of Mars that had the winning lottery numbers for the Minnesota State Pick 5 for 4/9/2003 and of course the three-mile-high hieroglyphics spelling 'RA IS GREAT, CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT COCA-COLA'). Oh yeah and the huge billboard made of light and dark sand that says 'Mars - Come for the sparkling beaches, stay for the truffles', though this proves more that the local tourism board was once quite vital!Actually, I think that conscious entities create the details of reality as they observe them (68.27%). And ultimately it all comes down to what started it all, but if we knew that, nobody would ever do anything, and that would be dull, and I imagine whatever started it all figured that out long ago. |

I had not seen that image of Kermit the Frog Planitia before, but it sure is good for a chuckle isn't it.

Resurrecting an old thread... to post a new image of Hyperion from the Oct. 06 orbit. This is a composite of eight frames from that orbit, with some contrast stretch.

Some threads back. I pointed out a "peninsula" jutting out into the equatorial dark belt on Titan a ways east of Xanadu that really does look like the playboy bunny symbol... I've been calling it Cape Heffner ever since...!

I will probably get banned for this since it might attract kooks, but dang, it looks like some sort of microorganism in that image!

Don't feed it any caffeine, or it will be a Hyper-ion.
