Enjoy this photo of Mars, courtesy of NASA. It only cost a kazillion dollars. Stealing the money of regular Americans at gunpoint, so highly paid scientists can indulge their hobby. How fun!

UPDATE from Josh Crosby:

What a great photo!  I wonder what it would look like if the vertical points had not been exaggerated 3:1 to the horizontal like the article says.  Great, a photoshopped picture of a distant icy hole; that sure makes me want to borrow wads of cash to buy more of them.
