Look at this picture...

That's Mars' biggest moon, Phobos, as seen by the Mars Reconaissance Orbiter. It's easily the best pictuer ever taken of the potato-shaped satellite. More detailed versions of the image, and information about Phobos itself, can be seen at this NASA press release webpage but before you go there, take a look at this crop I've made of the bright area on the edge of the big crater called "Stickney"...

How cool is that!?!? :-)
