I love pictures of the Martian surface. Ever since I saw the first red rubble strewn landscape from Viking 1 in a book when I was a kid I've found such images absolutely captivating.  More so that Lunar surface shots. I also found the surface shots from the recent comet landing amazing. I am a life long scifi nut, that may have something to do with it.
