Anomaly on Mars
So, I and a few of my fellow Clan Members (Death by Hug), have been wondering about the unusually large "Moon" in geostationary orbit above mars.
Now, I don't mean the small one that actually looks like Deimos or Phobos, but the HUGE Asteroid above mars: Images included in the imgur link!
Geo-Stationary Orbit? Too large & Too close - would have impacted
Given Stationary Debris between planetoid and Mars...
Possibly encountering a stasis field prior to impact?
Highly detailed (even given seams)
Not Phobos or Deimos due to size - That can be seen in the last set of images...
So, what is it? Possibly sent to destroy Mars but stopped with a stasis field?
All that is left of the Cabal's people?
An Arkship?
What are your thoughts?
-
Deimos and Phobos orbit Mars irregularly and it's assumed that given time one will inevitably strike Mars and the other will be flung out of orbit. I can only assume the Traveler (or perhaps the Earthlings during the Golden Age) had the technology or know how to prevent such a catastrophe and put the "moons" in a geo-stationary orbit. ...or the devs were just lazy...
