    It looks like a beautiful place. I kinda want to live there.

    Really, I saw that yesterday and gasped. From Mars, that's a lot of detail. HiRISE must have a good telescope on it. (Reading the article, it's the same camera that shot the Martian avalanche, so yeah.)

    Imagine being the first person on a ship to Mars and looking back to see that. It would be awesome.
