   Hi all   
      
   I've seen lots of spectacular images produced by the various Mars rovers and   
   their landers, and by the Viking landers in the 70s, but all the images   
   appear to be taken during daylight and 'good weather' hours.   
      
   Is this some kind of technical, lighting, or temperature issue, or have I   
   just been looking in the wrong places?   
      
   I am particularly interested in any image (photograph, picture, what is the   
   correct technical term?) showing a Martian night sky and one showing any   
   kind of heavy weather.   
      
   A Martian dust storm or lightning would be spectacular. Have such events   
   ever been recorded?   
      
      
   Any help, hints or useful abuse appreciated.   
      
   Thanks and regards   
   Frank Scrooby
