Phobos has clearly taken a few hits.

Here I sharpened the image. Clarity & contrast was increased as I made auto color correction.

inverted, - shadows on parts made slightly darker.
Notice the streak from the edge to the crater center at the bottom of the hole on Phobos.
Looking at the "original". I am not sure if the color has been digitally enhanced or this color could perhaps indicate minerals. Could the moon have a substrate of another material or is this something that lies on top of its surface?

Is there an explanation for all of the triangular patters?

Low poly render.

I bet there is, yeah.

"I am not sure if the color has been digitally enhanced" It's probably not visible spectrum anyway.
LokiUtgordum
Sounds like you are not sure either: "It's probably not..."
htapoicoS
OP didn't give a source. Most astronomy pics are more than just visible spectrum and those pics look like it.
LokiUtgordum
So what. What is really your point?

Looks like someone dropped a cosmic pizza slice and forgot to clean up. Who's gonna mop this Martian mess?

Loads of tire tracks up the side of that hill in the foreground there. Must be good for 4-wheel driving.

I passed the original through Topaz Gigapixel -> Topaz Sharpen -> Photoshop + rescaling with resampling
CommunCreator
Somehow this feels relevant. http://xkcd.com/2739
YourMomWasHere
(Zoom to see improvement.)
stefsonthor
I am impressed. Is this new version of Gigapixel? Again well done
YourMomWasHere
You should try it- filecr (I sail the high seas) have it free. It doesn't work well on diffuse images but if you have a lot of lines
YourMomWasHere
And relatively smooth midarea then it's very good. I use it for animal and macro when I run out of pixels to work with.
YourMomWasHere
It's my normal method to deal with low-resolution bird photos but it seems to have worked fairly decently
YourMomWasHere
The colours in the original are based on whatever composition the artist chose- assuming this was taken with a telescope of sorts.
YourMomWasHere
Usually a monochrome sensor is used and filters are wheeled between- in which case, you get the three individual bands
YourMomWasHere
(or more- i.e. luminance, polar, etc) and then the group artist (person in the team who is most artistic- not an actual artist) dashes them
YourMomWasHere
together for a satisfactory result for the public- or for comparison to other images (in which case, a very strict filter combination method
stefsonthor
well done mate
AxelBeingCivil
It's definitely colour-enhanced. Still very cool, though!

You gotta type IDCLIP and walk through the outer surface to get to them

fun fact: the surface area of the levels in E1 (scaled to Doomguy being 183cm tall) is larger than that of Phobos

Ive got a religious fan theory that the end times wont come because demons found out about the doom series and know we will follow through.

On the other side of the gates still. We haven't let them in yet.

Unless you can prove that the moon landing was faked to hide that we actually went to the Martian moons, absolutely sure.

Too small to see in this picture, it's too far away. If you decide to get closer, don't forget your shotgun.

Phobos is falling down on Mars. Once it'll reach the Rohce's limit it will disintegrate and could even form rings around Mars.
drunkcat
Approaching the roche limit you say?
imissmaplesyrup
How pronounce that word?

I typed wrong Roche's limit, if you meant that?

I wonder if the debris will heat up Mars’ atmosphere.
ChickenChickenBurningBright
The debris will enter in a trickle over thousands of years, and Mars' atmosphere is almost vacuum, so not appreciably.
RobotOverlordFromTheFuture
Phobos is a tiny moon compared to ours. If it disintegrates and forms rings, it would create some shade near the equator which would affect/
RobotOverlordFromTheFuture
the temperature, but not significantly to aid in any kind of terraformation concepts.

Instructions unclear: Set fire to Phobos

I think those were the instructions.
