Ok, guys, let's summurize results:
Combining replies from this forum and from http://www.badastronomy.com/phpBB/viewt … 64]another forum, and also looking at http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/ … 2.jpg]this image and http://www.lyle.org/mars/imagery/1P1371 … .html]this image, it is now clear that:
- NASA deletes original sky from rovers' photos becuase it is not good to see (image 1)
- The image below has not been retouched, it's just the rover camera failure

(See extreme example in the second image linked).

So, in the first case, no "hoax", just "embellishment"  , in the second case no "Hoax", just "failure".

And... yes, we are the same person...

Maybe you don't remember the first posts of this thread, showing evident image retouoch made by NASA...:

From RAW images:

From NASA:

What I don't understand is why NASA "doesn't like" natural martian sky!
Are there Green Men greeting Opportunity, in the Martian sky?
Is there some unhappy employee at NASA which would like to discredit NASA?
Did somebody at NASA let a coffe cup fall on the PC, so image data were corrupted, so he had to manually repaint the image?...
Was there a searchlight visible in those photos, as the picture was taken at Universal Studios?...

Guys, I really don't know what to think, but those images are clearly retouched, this is a fact. About the reason, I don't know, I'm not an international detective...

Luca

I don't want replies, I just would like to read something new in this forum... ???

You lurkers... :;):
Anyway, I'm going to actually build my own web page with links to all animations/images I posted here, and I'll continue posting them there rather than here.
If you want to see further images from me, you will have to keep alive this forum...   Else I'll understand that "No life on Mars" is, unfortunately, right. ???

Luca

I posted it here just to encourage you to continue discussing about Mars... but maybe the interest is now getting low, due to over-extending mission.    It's a pity, I think the MER missions are getting more interesting day by day!.

Luca

An alien spaceship... from the Martian point of view : infact, it is a piece of a spaceship coming from outside Mars.
Serioulsy, it is the Opportuniy's heatshield, detached from the lander before the lander started bouncing over Mars surface.

Luca

Have the rovers a system to detect their inclination? And have they a measurement of the pancam inclination? Maybe if we know that the rover is exactly horizontal and we know the inclination of the pancam when pointing to two different points of the closer slope, we could determine how steep it is, as probably we can determine de distance of the two points thanks to the presence of a couple of camera on the pancam...  ???

Luca

...and they only allow max 1 MB files to be uploded! :reallymad:

I'll see, thanks.

Luca

I found also i(italia)... but it does not allow files bigger than 1 MB!!!!
Others?
Just ftp hosting?

Luca

Very funny  ???  If I fix one file, other files lose the R attribute by themselves...  :rant:
Does anybody of you know a free hosting site with around 100 MB or more available for each user?

Luca

If you don't like them, don't look at them...

I say so complex&clever things that nobody knows what to reply...   Or maybe my posts are just interesting to be read, and no reply is needed...

A lot, indeed, so I found something to spend my spare time.
