Can we take a moment to appreciate this is a color photo taken on another fucking planet over 200 million kilometers away? How awesome are we?

I'll tell you what's weird: it looks so similar to Earth! It looks like someone just took a picture of Twilight Africa/ Atacama. I half expect some trees to be spotted all over the place.

Yeah it does. It's really just the lack of tiny details that let you know it's not on earth. There's no footprints, markings, tree, moss, etc. A landscape uncanny valley of sorts.

I try to take a few minutes every so often to marvel at how awesome things are.

You could say it's *glasses* breath taking.
