Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), weight loss photos, posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. Weight loss photos go in /r/loseit, DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

"Yup, it's a rock."

"Were gonna need to back this up with some more science, we better bring the rovers in."

[–]fe3o4 8 points9 points ago

Hey, don't the humans need like space suits and like stuff on Mars?

[–]louky 2 points3 points ago

Actually humans can live with a simple pressure suit similar to scuba, as well as a scuba type breathing system.

[–]MrBoujangles 3 points4 points ago

You would need a real pressure suit, something way better than a scuba suit. The Armstrong limit is 6.25 kilopascals and is pressure at which your blood will boil. The average pressure at the martian surface is 0.6 kilopascals, 10 times lower than the Armstrong limit. The annual mean temperature is also -83 F, so ya, bring a fucking pressure suit.

[–]louky 3 points4 points ago

Aha i did say similar. Although i was hoping someone with actual knowledge would correct me. I have a skewed view of mars from reading Heinlein as a kid back when canals existed. Also i have an EE background not actual physics. Thanks for the info.

[–]hackingyourlife -4 points-3 points ago

Dude, I can't tell if you're trolling or what, but if you aren't... they aren't on mars, it's a set and those rovers are just scale models to the ones on mars right now

[–]fe3o4 4 points5 points ago

No Way !

[–]mal9000 3 points4 points ago

Dude, hey, dude... listen... Battle Bots. Now.

THIS MAKES ME CRY OUT OUT LOUD!

seriously, i really hope they bring the little guys back home someday.

[–]Kwiatkowski 2 points3 points ago

whenever we make it to the planet in person we will probably build a monument around the rovers.

[–]bythisriver 1 point2 points ago

It is extremely cool idea that when ever we make it to Mars, there will be bunch of historical crap waiting for us. I wonder if anyone comes across Voyager ever again :) (I hope somebody else than human)

[–]feureau[S] 0 points1 point ago

Of course, the future history channel would be like: "Aliens artifacts found on mars!"

[–]Kwiatkowski 0 points1 point ago

Didn't that happen in a star trek movie?

[–]bythisriver 0 points1 point ago

V'ger! I recall it was just Voyager getting older and developing into sentient being.

[–]Kwiatkowski 0 points1 point ago

I thought it had been taken by an alien race, made self aware, and sent back, bit it got angry.

[–]bythisriver 0 points1 point ago

how come I get this feeling that there is trekkie nearby doing angry facepalm (since the plot should be common knowledge :D )

good movie anyway, made an impact when I saw it when I was a kid.

I'm not googling it, I'll have another beer instead, for Voyager!

[–]Clydeicus 0 points1 point ago

We shall bring home... TO THEM!

[–]mdmayhem 1 point2 points ago

Not sure if we put humans on Mars or the rover expeditions were faked.

[–]Seven_sins_Greed 2 points3 points ago

It's a soundstage on Venus

[–]Seven_Sins_Pride -1 points0 points ago

Maybe it is just two midgets.

[–]billydelicious 0 points1 point ago

I always assumed they were all the size of the one at 7 o'clock. That's cool.

[–]Intrepid00 0 points1 point ago

The big one is nuke powered.

[–]erl 0 points1 point ago

HOAX!!

[–]Xorda -2 points-1 points ago

There are actually two of the medium sized one, making FOUR rovers.

Nutsack.

[–]Seven_sins_Greed -1 points0 points ago

The Mars landings were faked!
