No other solid-surfaced body in the solar system has a self-defined equator.
The 3D effect did work for me using red/blue glasses but it was not one of the best 3D images that I've seen on an APOD as there seemed to be too much red to the left. However, on clicking Patrick Vantuyne this brought up an amazingly effective 3D image (not astronomy related). It's worth seeing for anybody that has not already done so.cpergiel wrote:The two images are too far apart to be seen as one clearly (using 3-D glasses), at least for me.
