Sputnik and smiles – craters on Mars


Sputnik and smiles – craters on Mars

Here one more “Sputnik”. This time, it is crater on Mars. Red planet has its own Sputnik. It is not big crater with diameter about 7 meters. It was inspected by rover Opportunity in 2006. This Sputnik is near with big crater Victoria. And also near are located craters Emma Dean, Gamma and Beagle. Funny names for craters. So, that’s all.

But, you know, there, on Mars there is crater Galle. It sounds almost like Galla. But this is Galle, in terms of astronomer. This crater has a diameter about 224 km. Very huge. And with a form of a smile. He smiles! It is most happy crater on Mars! But in Nereidum`s mountains satellite Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter discovered one more crater with a form of smile. So this is very smiling Mars!

Hi DimaLink,  stories about astronomical observations are fascinating to me. It makes me curious what sort of stuff you could come up with surrounding Mars Commander. Another thing that I like is the simplicity of your games.  Games don't need to be complex in order to be fun. Not at all. Thanks for reminding me of that.
