Explanation: Get out your red/blue glasses and float next to Phobos, grooved moon of Mars! Captured in 2004 by the High Resolution Stereo Camera on board ESA's Mars Express spacecraft, the image data was recorded at a distance of about 200 kilometers from the martian moon. This tantalizing stereo anaglyph view shows the Mars-facing side of Phobos. It highlights the asteroid-like moon's cratered and grooved surface. Up to hundreds of meters wide, the mysterious grooves may be related to the impact that created Stickney crater, the large crater at the left. Stickney crater is about 10 kilometers across, while Phobos itself is only around 27 kilometers across at its widest point.

Phobos has taken a few hits.
Where are my old 3D specs?
I don’t like the 3-d photos. I don’t have 3-D glasses and I doubt that I ever will.
I would rather dive into a Port-o-Let after a penny than get 3-d glasses.
At least the colors are correct on this one. I usually just see two images even with the glasses.
