Click on the picture, and read the information on all the sections inside. This is one of the most awe-inspiring charts I've ever seen.

Another of my favorite Martian surface photographs...

On May 19th, 2005, NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit captured this stunning view as the Sun sank below the rim of Gusev crater on Mars. This Panoramic Camera mosaic was taken around 6:07 in the evening of the rover's 489th martian day, or sol. Spirit was commanded to stay awake briefly after sending that sol's data to the Mars Odyssey orbiter just before sunset. The image is a false color composite, showing the sky similar to what a human would see, but with the colors slightly exaggerated. (NASA/JPL>

I’ve seen these kinds of charts before.
It is harsh when somebody shows you how puny you are.
