Stereo Phobos

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Get out your red/blue glasses and float next to Phobos, the grooved moon of Mars. This stereo anaglyph view shows the Mars-facing side of the asteroid-like moon's cratered and grooved surface. The image data was captured by the Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera from a distance of about 200 kilometers. The mysterious grooves, up to hundreds of meters wide, may be fractures related to the impact which created the 10-kilometer-wide Stickney crater.
