    Oh good, we can never have enough pictures of rocks! Seriously, the probe on its descent took a lot of very interesting pictures, too bad the thing is powered by batteries and stuck in place. Next time, to Hell with the environmentalists and equip the probes with radioisotope thermoelectric generators and wheels.
