I have that picture as my desktop background on my 21-inch digital moniter.Strangely, it does not show those "lights."

(Added the word "not" where it belongs!)

You said: "Buzz Aldrin says 'stay away from the Moon'"
Since you capitalized it, I assume you (and he) were talking about our Moon and not phobos? I ask because the discussion wasn't about our Moon.

The moons of Mars are as dark as coal, darker than most asteroids-no comparison to Earthly top-layer substances. Their dark coloration matches asteroids in the D ring around Jupiter. Just how they found themselves both! inside the asteroidal ring to take up residence around lightweight Mars is a puzzle tht the astronomers just can't quite explain.

Now, if they wanted to consider the words of Otto Struve, he said, "...I believe that Science has reached the point where it is necessary to take into account the actions of intelligent beings, in addition to the classical laws of physics."

Of course, the instant answer is intelligent manipulation. But heck, one-third of the jokers on this forum won't even allow that.

As with our own Moon, we are learning more about the possible origins of Phobos and Deimos. While their small size,irregular shapes, density, and spectrographic analysis suggest they may be captured asteroids, their equatorial orbits and low eccentricity make this scenario problematic.

It's possible that a large asteroidal impact with Mars created both moons. The debris going into orbit and coalescing into the loose rubble piles which data indicates they are. There is other evidence of such an impact.

Another theory is that the two moons are remnants of a single larger moon which tidal forces tore asunder. Most of the material spiraled into Mars but the smaller pieces would form the loose conglomerates we see today. This theory is based partly on the fact that the orbit of Phobos is decaying.

Russia plans to land a robot on Phobos (Phobos-Grunt) and return samples to Earth. If these plans succeed we will know if Phobos is a captured asteroid or if it is a son of Mars. Just as the samples from our Moon show that most of it was once part of Earth.

Sort of saddens me that so many people on this site think every image is CGI.

Can't accept the fact that we as humans are capable of taking a photo of a rock only 6800 km's away.

The image is made up from 4 sources used in the HiRISE camera. Blue, Green Red and Infra-red.

Exactly.

My opinion is Phobos and Deimos are asteroids trapped in orbit around Mars. Their irregular shapes alone give me this impression.
The other theories you've included are just as plausible though.

Let's watch the picture of the crater with a zoom...

They don't look like typical moons.
They look like they were grabbed from the asteroid belt and then
placed in orbit around Mars. Why 2 asteroids?

Does Deimos keep an eye on a Phobos blind spot?

There is no collision in Sumerian mythology. Zecharia Sitchin is the only one who claims there is.

I'll bet Immanuel Velikovsky would strongly disagree with you on that point.

Some astronomer's say that if Phobos was a loose collection of materials that tidal forces from its nearness to Mars would have disrupted it long ago. Its particular shape and that of Deimos as well virtually rules out them being loose aggretate bodies. If nothing else, the large craters, especially that of Stickney gives us a strong indication that it is a discrete body. True, its orbit is very slightly decaying because of atmospheric drag, but it has millions of years left. The orbit is near perfect, BTW. Deimos on the other hand, is slowly moving away from Mars. Deimos, I will add, was probably once, millions of years ago when the Martians first brought it into orbit, was probably in a synco orbit (appearing stationary) over Mars. but has since slipped.

Well i do not see any lights in the crater but if you look at the top of the photo its been changed.Some of the shaded areas do not match.Why would they want to change the photo.They did a poor job of changing the photo.

You don't need to assume, he made it perfectly clear...

And if you can't see the lights in that monitor of yours, perhaps it's defective... as we can all see them... its only a question of what they are

makers of the first big first person shooter "id" games made Phobos the place where a portal opened and demons came through and destroyed. in the first "DOOM" game.

aaaalways wondered if they got any startup capital from DARPA or DoD.

...lil it of preconditioning goin on eh???

...eh?

Here you go.
Go to the bottom of Page 1 of this post.
I found a much bigger pic of Phobos with the lights.
If you look to the left, you can see more lights.
I think the lights are an imaging artifact. The lights line up perfectly.
False alarm.

Move on, folks, there's nothing to see here aside from some pareidolia or, as The Beatles said, "It's all in your mind."

However, there is real footage taken by an astronaut on emulsion film from an orbiting lunar vehicle (or it's footage taken by just a lunar orbiter with a camera mounted on the vehicle and pointed towards the lunar surface) of flashing lights from a lunar crater. When you see the footage all you see is a white dot hauling over the lunar surface. It passes over a darkened crater and you may notice flashing lights on the rim edge. But if you were to record the footage and play it back in frame iby frame you'll see that there is a flash from the center of the crater which comes on dim, brightens, then dims again, all in 3 frames! I have that footage somewhere in a UFO tape and I once posted the frames on the late Jeff Challender's UFO website. This footage is repeated once in a while on TV but it lasts only a few seconds so you have to be eagle-eyed to catch it. If you do see it, check to see if the program repeats so that you can tape it and see for yourself.

It was probably a small remote controlled probe from the Grays.
They are masters of miniaturization. However, we are catching
up fast.
