In two words: IN-CREDIBLE! I was really looking forward to these images, but they exceeded my expectations... judge for yourselves!

Some info about this image and its significance: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/MRO/news/mro-20061006.html
And finally, I strongly recommend some other images by MRO and MER Opportunity to get even more amazed (just type the codes in the search box at this site http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/targetFamily/Mars ): PIA08817, PIA08816, PIA08813, PIA08811, PIA08809, PIA08807. There are tons of other awesome pics, I can spend hours just seeing and seeing...
Nice. So all those Rover photos aren't the creation of George Lucas' Industrial Light & Magic, after all.
Just being facetious

Would it be immature to call you "Blank Face" from now on, Jim?
