Explaining the Mars Photo Colorization

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the worth-a-read dept.

TaddyPorter writes "I've seen stories going around the 'net in regards to NASA editing photos of mars. Mainly, the sundial used for calibration showed different colors than the dial on mars. While a wide range of explanations were taking shape, the Pancam Payload Element Lead for the mission, Jim Bell of Cornell University, was kind of enough to explain the color differences."

    "Please restrict further posts to inanities, non-sequiturs, and blaming everything on the liberals."

    Yeah liberals like G.W Bush. What the hell are you talking about? Everything gets blamed on Conservatives not Liberals.
