3D Martian Flyover Movies 69
Matthew Sparkes writes "NASA has created two virtual flyovers of the Mars rover landing sites using 3D imagery from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (New Scientist story here). The images were made using the most powerful camera ever sent to another planet, MRO's High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE). The three-dimensional information is obtained by taking pairs of images from slightly different vantage points as the spacecraft orbits the Red Planet."

They're advanced robots, they spotted the flyover cameras and hid in their camouflaged hiding spots when the satellites flew over.

Oh, I don't know. Having a 2D martian as a pet would be quite cool.
Cheap to feed :)
4D would also be neat. Handy for getting in and out of locked rooms.
