Eh? Well, true, you only have martian gravity on mars, but you can simulate it in orbit by spinning the object.
The thing is that breeding mice in space is a lot easier that breeding humans. I think it would be quite interesting to see what physiological consequences the lower gravity would have.
Yes, but the color space of the framebuffer is still 8 bits of red, green and blue. 24 bits.
Don't underestimate the amount of information that data-starved astronomers can get out of what's available, though. You mean funding starved, don't you? :-)
Actually, in the case of 32bit color, the 8 added bits aren't actually used for anything else than padding. Atleast when just running a desktop.
Here's a closeup Personally, I'd like a bit more resolution, at least for reading. But maybe they'll make b/w versions for that? It would sure be nicer than reading on my ipaq.

I use fbcon with 1600x1200x32 res for that. Works great! And you get a packed pixel framebuffer to play with :) I wrote a little program a while ago that showed a starfield behind the console text.
Think again. The total loss would still be the same, it would just be smaller per time unit.
That's true. No multitasking, only various hacks (as dos had). But no one says you have to run palmos on it. ucLinux!
