he did? what a homo move. why the fuck....

-NASA uber calibrates camera to give the most honest representation of how it would look to the naked eye, and writes an entire article about it
-Some moron photoshops in earth sky :dork:

They tweaked the colors to make it look like what it would like like if seen on Earth, too. Kinda retarded IMO. I want to see what it would look like if I was standing on Mars.

Lol NASA...this looks like evidence that there may not even be a rover there after all...

^ because of course NASA would outsource their fakery to 'some guy on the internet', and not care if he told everyone

IT'S SO OBVIOUS

My guess is the tweaking was fairly minor and probably had to do with the thinner atmosphere changing the way the sun lights the area. Agreed though, a raw photo > *.

I wouldn't mind it so much if there was a raw version available as well. Granted, the guy didn't have to do the panorama in the first place, but if you're going to put that much effort into it, spend another 5 minutes going one step further.

Much better, thanks. :up:

A bit eerie, though. It definitely looks otherworldly (appropriately enough).

i wonder if we evolved there, if we'd get eyesight very sensitive to the wavelength on that end of the spectrum, and have completely shit capability for the rest of it.

That is kinda eerie, actually. Strange to see a totally barren landscape like that, then a high-tech rover sitting there. Cheers :up:

I can almost understand their eagerness to touch up the image. the raw copy seems like it's taken by an amateur camera with a shitty lense.
