I've been reading some recent articles, and it seems as if NASA is altering the coloring on their photos a bit.

 

JPL explained that their cameras pick up more than just visible light, and these images and images with different filters are combined to give their best estimation of what it would look like to human eyes.

 

"Q. Then what we're seeing that's in that Pancam image doesn't correspond to what we'd see if we were standing there?

 

Jim: we have a pair of red filters that give us stereo. The red you're asking about is the infrared filter which is different from the red humans see. We can convert that red easily. We also have a red filter that matches human sight red but we prefer to use the infrared filter to get matchup with both cameras. Two cameras each have 8 filters. One filter on one eye is a dense welder-like filter to look at the sun. On the left camera is low frequency and the right camera is higher frequencies. Total of 11 unique wavelengths."

 

Personally, I'd like to see what a picture from a kodak disposable camera would look like.

Some people are crying conspiracy over this. I suppose there is a handful of people who believe everything is a conspiracy.

There are too many of those people, aren't there?

Yeah, I heard they were distorted. On Pathfinder at first the cameras were not adjusted correctly so the in the pictures the atmosphere appeared blue... that caused a stir!

Has anyone an idea about how difficult it would be to make real what isn't ?

 

Let say they did make everything and did launch and have their probe around mars. but like the beagle2 the lander crashed also but NASA can't afford that so how much would it take to fake a succesfull landing? how many people should know it to make it work?

 

Keep in mind that the Mars Express can also pick up signals from mars (so NASA&ESA should be close friends then).

even on Earth they can be detected with large detectors/telescopes.

Are you saying it was faked?
