Mars' abnormal moons
In 1988 the Soviet Union launched two probes to study Mars and its two moons Phobos and Deimos. Unlike most other Russian missions around the solar system, the Phobos I and II missions were done with some cooperation with the United States, which contributed the use of the Deep Space radio telescope network, along with various contributions from Sweden, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and France.

He put some of it in a box and drove to the local sheriff. Neither man knew what to make of it, so the sheriff called Roswell Army Air Field, which sent two men to investigate...
I don't believe in ghosts
Mark Hughes Cobb: I'm not a believer. This, despite evidence, because a big part of me says evidence is hooey. (And no, I wasn't on the O.J. jury; why do you ask?). I'm talking about the part of me that denies evidence of the supernatural, things beyond our senses...
