We went to Mars, and all we got was this lousy picture

We went to Mars, and all we got was this lousy picture - "a portion of the first color image captured by the panoramic camera on the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit.". If you stare at it for long enough, I bet there's a face in there somewhere. ;)

The most detailed view of Mars ever seen, and the highest resolution image ever taken on the surface of another planet.

Here's a photo showing the inspiration behind bushin30seconds.org ("Child's Pay" and "Desktop" are really good), commending the Exploration Team via a phone call. Nice phone, G! It's so... retro.

And here's another photo of the team receiving his call. They're in hysterics because:
(a) Bushitler has just asked if Mars contains more carbohydrates than a MilkyWay or Galaxy;
(b) Not even their president has realised that the entire mission is taking place in a remote African desert, and all their photos were treated with the "Martian Red" Photoshop filter;
(c) Their lunch time McDonald's happy meals contained Mars-related one liners;
(d) Someone farted.

Mullet boy at the back doesn't look very pleased (or maybe he's the farter), and as for that guy seated in front of him...
