most gnarlacious

The Big Eye in the Sky ain’t limited to spying on homeless dudes in the streets, our dongs in our houses, and the wild packs of Werewolves that dominate the suburbs on weekends. No ma’am!

SPACE SWOON: Here’s a look at EARTH from MARS.

Earth.

Stunning picture of Earth from Mars right up in here. Perspective++, brolos. Ain’t nothing better than being reminded that we’re just a little cute irrelevant speck in the cosmic dust. If we used that revelation to strive for something bigger, of course. Oh, me? I’m going to slap Double Gulps from 7-Eleven all day and look at porn. I’m no leader! You, go, start the revolution. Or pass the Fritos, I don’t care.

Hit the jump for the images.

Mars’ red face goes gorgeous blue after asteroid rocks it

Mars wins. Mars loses.

Not everything is Ray Bradbury and Mars Attacks up on the surface of the Red Planet. (What does that mean? Nothing. Just making up nonsense.) An asteroid struck the face of Ares between 2010 and 2012, leaving Mars feeling a little blue.

Hit the jump for the image and some deets.

Mars Curiosity landing in HD.

Oh yeah this is totally cool. To-ta-lly. That little fucking robot on Mars is no longer doing our bidding, finally switching over to its autonomous navigation. This is all cute and shit until it builds its first colony of nanobot assassins.

(THERE WAS) DRINKABLE WATER ON MARS according to Opportunity

Mars. Let's get the fuck there. Now.

Imagine sucking down a cold glass of Martian water? Well, we can do it. What’s needed for this task? Uh, well it’s a bit complicated. A time-travelling spaceship, stocked with a crew and such. Me? I’m just there to drink the water.

MARS got a BANANAS Northern Polar Ice Cap.

Mars!

Woah! What a dumb first line. Whatever. Double woah! Take a look at Mars’ northern polar ice cap. There are some seriously impressive natural forces taking place in this picture.
