My mother got it too, and forwarded it to EVERYBODY as is her habit. It's my habit to routinely check Snopes whenever I get chainmail from her.

For the record, back when this amazing opposition was happening, seeing surface detail on Mars was difficult as fuck.

Then again I was using a 12.5 inch light bucket.

The girl in chainmail is almost as good.
