The European Space Agency's Mars Express satellite just buzzed past the barren Phobos, the largest of Mars's tiny moons. Here's what the cameras captured FOXNews.com - Closest Ever View of Martian Moon
Did you notice that when Phobos past by it looked like it had a face staring back at you. The two big craters look like eyes.
Do you mean the craters on both sides of Phobos? Must be those reptilians from the 53 dimension up to their tricks again. There's also another 'face' with a partial smile (if you use a bit of imagination) on the front of the moon as well. Maybe it has something to do with the Cydonia "Face" on Mars.
I'd like to see a better image of the "monolith" on Phobos. Maybe it's full of stars?
I hope we remembered to wave to them as we passed by. What makes us think that even the tiniest moon does not have inhabitants?
Forget about life on Mars, what about life on Mercury? haha!
Mercury would be a good spot to hold a BBQ for fast incinerated burgers and hot dogs.
Tiny moons like Phobos and Deimos probably aren't the greatest environments for life. I dunno. Do you think there's a chance for inhabitants on 6-mile wide Deimos? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deimos_(moon)
Those who favor the "Electric Universe" theory seem to think most craters are the result of bolts of electricity. Astronauts often report that space has a certain kind of smell, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with electricity or not. At the very least, there could be some kinds of electrical activity on the moons of Mars, such as static electricity. Astronauts who have gone to the Moon had to deal with lunar dust particles clinging to their space suits. Once back inside the LEM and the capsule, the dust would drift all over, some of which was breathed in by the astronauts, making them feel as if they had a respiratory cold.
But I agree, since there's no atmosphere on the Martian moons, being zapped by a lightning bolt is pretty unlikely.
